SMPC physicians have trained specifically in Pain Management and/or Pain Medicine beyond their medical specialty. Our physicians have completed advanced training in pain management through Pain Fellowships and are very familiar with spine related pain conditions among others. Their primary medical specialty may be Anesthesiology, Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and/or Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine. Our physicians work with each patient to find the best methods to reduce their pain and improve their daily function. Our comprehensive approach to pain care offers patients renewed hope for relief from their struggle with chronic pain. Our philosophy is that chronic pain should be treated as other chronic medical condition such as diabetes, asthma or congestive heart failure.
