Common injuries experienced by doctors is not a topic that is discussed often, but the fact is that doctors are susceptible to a number of injuries from work as well as day-to-day life.

In some cases, doctors will even continue to work rather than taking the necessary time off to recover.

One of the most perplexing aspects of the Florida Workers’ Compensation law is the lack of resources or solutions for workers when they have a career-altering injury.

Firework injuries often include injuries to the face, eyes, hands, legs, and so much more of the body.
