We specialize in pain management within the medical specialty framework of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) and Anesthesiology.
The focus of our care is to evaluate, diagnose, and treat neurological, muscular, and skeletal pain using a multidisciplinary approach which incorporates the use of diagnostic as well as therapeutic procedures whenever possible.
Whenever possible we utilize evidence-based diagnostic as well as interventional techniques to potentially improve recovery from injuries and chronic pain conditions. Whether your pain was caused an accident or is physiologic in nature, an integrated team approach utilizing the expertise of highly trained professionals in a variety of disciplines is a strategy which offers many benefits over a single "monotherapy" option.
