Pain affects three out of four patients and can have a profound effect on their physical, mental and spiritual well being. Recent advances in our understanding of pain have lead to new treatments and pain management techniques for acute, chronic and cancer pain.
The Center for Pain Medicine, a division of the Department of Anesthesiology, specializes in these areas and offers a wide range of treatment options.
Our comprehensive treatment plans combine traditional and complementary medicine approaches. We seek to empower patients by educating them about their conditions and identifying the best methods to relieve pain, promote healing and restore maximum levels of function. Additionally, we have extensive knowledge of the latest pain management treatments and techniques.
