Advanced Pain & Spine Institute at Community Medical Center offers a comprehensive range of services for patients experiencing chronic pain (pain lasting longer than 3 months). Our multidisciplinary team of pain specialists provide each patient with an extensive initial evaluation that includes a personal interview and physical examination as well as a thorough review of all prior medical records, labs, and imaging studies. A treatment plan is then tailored for each patient.
Pain is a complex medical problem that can have profound effects on your physical and mental well-being. It effects not only the physical aspects of your life but also your mind, spirit, personal relationships, jobs, family, and emotional well being. Our goal is to help you decrease your level of pain and suffering, to return you to your maximum level of functioning and independence, and to help you restore your quality of life in a supportive, compassionate environment.
We work closely with physical medicine & rehabilitation physicians, orthopedic surgeons and your primary care provider, only recommending surgery when necessary.
