Philadelphia, PA Functional Capacity Evaluation

When pain or injury has compromised your ability to function, secondary to an injury from work or an accident you may be a candidate for a functional capacity evaluation. This is a way to accurately and objectively measure your functional limitations (your day-to-day activities).

We're the experts you need to provide the functional capacity evaluation – also known as the physical capacity evaluation, work capacity evaluation, or disability assessment – that can determine the full extent of your limitations and abilities.

Our results can provide your employer, insurer, physician, or other party with the objective information needed to determine when you can go back to work, what your functional work day tolerances are, and more.
