Our purpose at Premier Pain Centers is to reduce or eliminate your pain and to restore your ability to live and work as you desire.

Many physicians continue to treat patients with medication, injections or surgery before the specific cause of their pain has been identified.  This dramatically increases the risk of complications and often results in poor outcome.  The specialty of Interventional Pain Management has been developed to address this urgent need for more accurate diagnosis and treatment of painful conditions in or near the spine.

During your initial visit to Premier Pain Centers one of our physicians conducts a complete pain history and focused physical examination.  All pertinent medical history and diagnostic studies are carefully reviewed.  Additional testing or diagnostic injections may be recommended to determine the specific origin of your pain prior to the initiation of therapy.  A comprehensive treatment plan is discussed with you and a full report is sent to your referring doctor.

At Premier Pain Centers we treat your pain by reducing the inflammation or desensitizing the painful nerves, spinal discs, joints or muscles responsible for your symptoms.  We accomplish this by combining medication and physical modalities with precise x-ray guided injections.  Our use of fluoroscopy (real-time x-ray) to perform the diagnostic and therapeutic injections allows us to maximize accuracy and avoid side effects.

All of our procedures are performed on an outpatient basis in a relaxed and pleasant environment.   Our facilities are staffed by specially trained personnel and equipped with the most sophisticated technology. At Premier Pain Centers we believe that our compassionate and expert care will provide you with a beneficial and rewarding experience.
