Pain Management & Anesthesia Services
WRMC Center for Interventional Pain Medicine provides procedures for the relief of chronic pain. Our goal is to develop a treatment program for patients to relieve their pain, restore functional capacity and decrease or eliminate dependence on pain medications.
Patients are accepted by referral from their primary care or specialty physician. Coverage for pain management procedures may vary between medical plans and patients should consult their insurance carrier before scheduling a procedure.
The Treatment Team
Treatment for chronic pain is managed and coordinated by board certified Anesthesiologists trained in interventional pain techniques.
Because chronic pain is often associated with underlying medical conditions, our program is specially designed to integrate and coordinate pain management with ongoing healthcare. The progress of your treatment is reported to the referring physician.
