Workers' Comp Doctors in San Diego, California

Frequently asked questions

How do I pick a workers' comp doctor in San Diego?

Check three things in order: (1) is the provider in your employer's MPN, if one applies? (2) do they have the right specialty for your injury? (3) are they currently accepting new WC patients? Use the directory to find San Diego providers, then confirm those details with the office and your claims adjuster.

What if I'm injured at work in San Diego but live elsewhere?

You can usually be treated where you live, especially for ongoing care, with claims adjuster approval. For the initial post-injury evaluation, most states require you to see a provider local to the work site.

Are the providers in this directory all accepting new patients?

No. A listing or a WC services label does not establish current availability. Confirm whether the office accepts your claim and new patients before booking.

What information do I need before booking?

Your claim number, the claims adjuster's name and phone, your employer's contact info, the date of injury, and a brief description of how the injury happened. Some providers also request the employer's First Report of Injury in advance.
