Workers Comp Doctor
Our decades of experience have shown us that if we can get professional athletes back on the field, we can get you back to work.
Recovering from an injury that occurred while on the job is not only painful but time-consuming.
When you make the choice to recover with Dr. Droege and his medical team at Esquire, we not only focus on easing pain, we concentrate our efforts on getting you prepared to return to the workforce.
Expert Treatment for Workers’ Compensation and Occupational Injuries
A workplace injury can happen in any profession, from construction and manufacturing to healthcare, transportation, and office environments. Whether your injury occurred suddenly in a workplace accident or developed over time from repetitive job duties, receiving prompt treatment is essential for a full recovery and a safe return to work.
At Esquire Sports Medicine, we specialize in work injury treatment and workers’ compensation rehabilitation in St. Louis. Our experienced team of physicians, chiropractors, and rehabilitation specialists understands the physical demands of various occupations and develops personalized treatment plans designed to reduce pain, restore function, and help you return to work as quickly and safely as possible.
Comprehensive Workers’ Compensation Injury Care
As the oldest sports medicine clinic in St. Louis, we have decades of experience treating employees who have suffered work-related injuries. Our team works closely with patients, employers, case managers, and attorneys to ensure coordinated care and accurate documentation throughout the recovery process.
We treat a wide range of occupational injuries, including:
Lower Back Pain and Injuries
Lower back injuries are among the most common workplace injuries, especially for employees who regularly lift, bend, twist, or perform physically demanding tasks. Our providers diagnose and treat conditions such as muscle strains, herniated discs, sciatica, and chronic back pain. We also offer post-surgical rehabilitation programs for patients recovering from spinal procedures.
Neck Pain and Repetitive Stress Injuries
Work-related neck pain can result from heavy labor, repetitive motions, poor ergonomics, or prolonged computer use. Left untreated, neck injuries may lead to headaches, reduced mobility, numbness, and chronic pain. Our treatment options may include chiropractic care, physical rehabilitation, pain management therapies, acupuncture, and corrective exercise programs.
Knee Injuries and Fall-Related Accidents
Slips, trips, and falls remain one of the leading causes of workplace injuries. Knee injuries can significantly impact mobility and job performance. Whether you’ve suffered a ligament injury, meniscus tear, or undergone arthroscopic knee surgery, our rehabilitation specialists can help restore strength, stability, and function.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Repetitive Motion Injuries
Many workers develop repetitive stress injuries from performing the same motions day after day. Conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, and repetitive strain injuries can affect productivity and quality of life. Our team provides targeted treatment programs designed to reduce symptoms and improve long-term function.
