Summary
- Currently working in interventional pain management.
We specialize in the treatment of chronic pain conditions including spinal stenosis, facet arthropathy, joint issues and other painful musculoskeletal disorders. We provide patients with treatment options including epidural steroid injections, facet and medial branch blocks and radio frequency ablation (RFA). We help many patients with simple corticosteroid joint injections as well as Hyaluronic acid injection used to treat knee pain caused by osteoarthritis (OA). We also perform genicular nerve blocks and RFA for patients who have chronic post-knee replacement pain or who are not candidates for knee replacement. Our highly trained staff is able to treat vertebral compression fractures with Kyphoplasty performed in our in-office surgical suite.
In the treatment of chronic pain we collaborate with neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery, physical and occupational therapy and chiropractors to provide a full spectrum of pain relief options for our patients.
