We understand that in order to serve our patients better we must work in close collaboration with the referring physician or surgeon as well as with other specialists whose expertise may be required.

Since pain is often caused by a combination of factors, team approach is required for its successful management. Therefore a multidisciplinary approach to our patient’s care is the best way to resolve the pain problem in the most effective and timely manner.

All patients are scheduled and seen IMMEDIATELY upon referral from his or her health care provider for an initial consultation.

Our patient coordinator will attempt to obtain all medical records from the referring doctor’s office and make them available at the time of the first
appointment. This includes history, physical examination, operative reports, second and third opinions, test results, diagnostic radiology results and any other evaluation results which may be helpful.

Occasionally additional tests may be required before a treatment plan can be formulated.

Most of the time your treatment will be initiated at the first appointment.

Once the treatment is successfully completed, our physicians will closely follow the progress to recovery and will readily communicate with the referring doctor.

Today and Tomorrow

We care and that is the integral part of our treatment plan!
