Frank Salvi

Hi, I'm Frank Salvi, a medical doctor, researcher, educator, and consultant. I am exploring new work opportunities.

---

My training as a board certified specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation, sports medicine and pain management, with a masters degree in population health sciences, and experience as a medical director make me uniquely qualified to evaluate and treat a variety of occupational, musculoskeletal and pain related problems. I provide independent medical evaluations, impairment ratings, disability determinations, and utilization review for these patient populations. I have been working with medical organizations and medical group practices on performance improvement strategies, including the development and selection of performance measurement sets that qualify for government reimbursement programs. I also remain active and interested in the area of medical device and pharmaceutical research and development.
