Services
Epidural Injections
Epidural injections deliver targeted medication to reduce inflammation and pain in spinal nerve roots. This minimally invasive procedure benefits patients with herniated discs, sciatica, or spinal stenosis. Our specialists use precise imaging guidance to ensure accurate placement for optimal relief.
Radiofrequency Denervation
Radiofrequency denervation uses heat to disrupt pain signals from specific nerves. Ideal for chronic neck/back pain, this procedure offers long-term relief by targeting sensory nerves. Our team employs advanced techniques to maximize effectiveness while minimizing tissue damage.
Botox Injections
Botox injections treat chronic migraines and muscle spasms by blocking pain-related neurotransmitters. This therapy provides sustained relief for patients with tension headaches or localized muscle contractions. Our specialists customize dosages to address individual pain patterns effectively.
Spinal Cord Stimulation
Spinal cord stimulation uses implanted devices to interrupt chronic pain signals. This advanced therapy benefits patients with failed back surgery syndrome or complex regional pain syndrome. We offer trial periods to assess effectiveness before permanent implantation.
Sympathetic Blocks
Sympathetic blocks diagnose and treat pain from nerve dysfunction like CRPS. By injecting anesthetics near sympathetic nerves, we can reduce abnormal pain responses. Our specialists use real-time imaging to enhance procedural accuracy and patient safety.

All they care about is making money, instead of helping their patients in dire need of help to find a real solution. If you need any disability applications needed from your pain management doctor, then I'm telling you now NOT to go here. Their fee is $500 for any disability application paper.
