What is the Pain Management Center?

The Pain Management Center is an outpatient facility that provides expertise in treating and diagnosing pain problems.

The physicians staffing the Pain Management Center provide more than twenty-five years of knowledge, expertise and treatment skills in dealing with a broad spectrum of pain syndromes.

Patients are accepted into our program by direct referral(s) from within the medical community, such as primary care physicians, orthopedists, neurosurgeons, chiropractors, etc, or as patients not presently under the care of a physician. An appropriate treatment plan is devised that will best benefit the particular pain problem. If further workup as to the cause of the problem is needed, it will be arranged on an outpatient basis.
