Brief Intro

Dr. Linda Carroll was born in New York City and grew up in the surrounding suburbs. After college, she worked for the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite as a production assistant/secretary. In 1971, she moved to southern California where she received a Master's Degree in physical therapy from the University of Southern California. Subsequently, she worked as a physical therapist for 12 years, first in California and then in New York. In 1986, she entered medical school (Case Western Reserve in Cleveland, Ohio); following medical school, she completed a residency in physical medicine and rehabilitation (physiatry) at the University of Washington in Seattle. After residency, Dr. Carroll entered private practice in the Port Angeles/Sequim area of the north Olympic Peninsula. She moved to Bend in 2001. Dr. Carroll's practice focuses on musculo-skeletal issues, primarily those involving the spine and muscle/joint regions as the result of a sports/recreational injury or of an on-the-job injury (i.e. Workman's Compensation claim). Since many people with musculo-skeletal problems often have pain as a result of their injury, a physiatrist such as Dr. Carroll will treat pain as a part of the total treatment program of rehabilitiation that is aimed at restoring the person to as normal function as possible. She also performs a variety of soft tissue and joint injections as well as electrodiagnostic studies (EMG and nerve conduction).
