About Physiatry
The goal of our Interventional Pain/Physiatry clinic is to provide medical care to patients with pain, weakness, numbness, and loss of function so that they can maximize their physical, social, and vocational potential.
Dr. Catherine Yee is Board-Certified by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. She works with patients experiencing pain, weakness or disability to assist them in adapting to physical limitations. In partnership with the patient, her ultimate goal is to help individuals gain mobility and comfort — restoring their independence and the lifestyle they enjoy.
As patients survive medical conditions that once would have been physically limiting and even devastating, the field of Physiatry is moving to the forefront of medicine. Dr. Yee serves all age groups and treats problems that touch upon all major systems of the body.
