OWCP Doctor Dallas

Wednesday, May 16th, 2012

After a small delay, Dr. Charles Willis, MD is finally starting his first day as WOLMED’s OWCP Doctor in Dallas.  Dr. Willis specializes in helping injured federal employees with their OWCP workers comp injuries.  DOL / OWCP Workers Comp specialists are rare due to the numerous and complicated rules that must be followed in Federal Workers Compensation.  A lot of Dallas/Ft. Worth Medical Doctors choose not to treat OWCP Workers Compensation injuries due to these complications.  WOLMED and Dr. Willis have spent many years and undergone a lot of training to be able to help OWCP Workers Comp patients and to become experts in OWCP Workers Comp.

WOLMED and Dr. Charles Willis also contract with a local OWCP Workers Comp Consultant who has over 20 years of direct experience with OWCP as a United States Postal Employee and Union Member.  Having this consultant available has been a great service for our OWCP Workers Compensation patients.  He’s been so very helpful in establishing their work injury case and making sure all of the proper forms are used and submitted on time.

If you or someone you know has been injured working for any federal agency, be it the Unites States Post Office, FEMA, TSA, IRS, VA, SSA, or any other federal agency, WOLMED and Dr. Charles Wills want to be your OWCP Doctor in Dallas, TX.

We are your OWCP Dallas Doctor.

WOL+MED & North Texas Food Bank Feed Thousands

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

WOL+MED has teamed up with the North Texas Food Bank to help feed families in need.  The North Texas Food Bank uses a virtual food drive so that anyone can get involved.  When you don’t have time to go to the grocery store and buy canned food, you can instead donate money online.  When you don’t have time to take food to the food bank, you can donate money online.  WOL+MED employees made enough donations during the Thanksgiving holiday to provide over 4,000 meals!  We will continue to support the North Texas Food Bank thru the Christmas holiday and throughout 2010.  If you would like to make a donation, you can click on the food bank icon located on WOL+MED’s home page.  Thank you for your support!

Post Office Work Injuries

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

WOL+MED has helped hundreds of injured postal employees over the years.  We’ve seen injuries from lifting heavy packages, repetitive mail sorting, climbing stairs, and more.  I have personally had the opportunity to be on-site at a local post office to witness the hard work these federal employees go thru daily to get their jobs done.  It’s hard to believe (unless you’ve seen it first hand) just how hard of a job postal workers have.  Each year, the Bureau of Labor Statistics puts out data on the number of injured federal employees and the US Postal Service has by far the most, with nearly 50,000 reported cases per year.

When these folks get hurt, the federal government does an excellent job at covering their medical expenses.  The biggest problem for these injured workers is finding a qualified medical doctor who treats federal workers comp.  Even among workers comp doctors, it’s hard to find someone who even understands federal rules well enough to treat federal injured workers.  Of course, at WOL+MED, the medical doctors are federal workers comp experts, but we had to learn a lot of hard lessons along the way before we got to be as good as we are now.  We love to treat injured postal employees and other injured federal employees.  And guess what?  Those people love to come to WOL+MED to get treatment.

We find that a very high percentage of injured workers will refer their friends, family, and coworkers to us.  That’s usually what happens when a patient trusts us.  They want the people they know to have the same good experience.  It just makes sense.  WOL+MED BBQ’s for all of its patients at lunch time usually 2 or 3 times per month.  We like to do patient appreciation parties and we give patient appreciation gift bags for new patients.  We have games like Wii and a pool table too.  Why shouldn’t a visit to the doctor be fun?  That’s our philosophy because we truly believe that patients are #1.

So, check us out.  Hopefully, you won’t ever get hurt at work, but if you do, choose WOL+MED.  If you know of any federal employees who were hurt at work, please tell them about us.  We’re always ready to help new patients, even with same-day appointments.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR REFERRALS!
