Introduction

The health care professionals at Center for Specialty Surgery are dedicated to the treatment of acute & chronic pain. Through the broad training and experience of our staff, we are able to offer services to treat many pain syndromes. Our patients who come to this Center have gone through diagnostic tests, MRIs, CAT scans and even surgery. The results of their tests often come back negative, but the pain is still there. The goal of our treatment is to help patients gain control over their pain and lead normal, active and meaningful lives at home and in their community. We understand the complexity of our patient's pain and the suffering experienced by many individuals with persistent pain. Working with each patient is always a challenge and much thought, time and effort is given to each individual. By doing this we are all continually learning more about chronic pain and how best to manage it. Most of all we have learned to appreciate the uniqueness of each individual patient.
