Introduction
The
OPA Pain Management program was begun in 1974. The intent of the
program is to provide options for patients who are disabled by chronic
pain. The program focuses on the reversal of disability through
various procedures which are designed to return the patient to their
normal level of function. The OPA Pain Service couples temporary
and permanent invasive procedures with physical reconditioning through
physical therapy and psychological pain management.
The
OPA Pain Management program is referral based and manages patients
on an outpatient as well as inpatient basis. The main purpose of our
service is to offer symptomatic pain relief to patients with various
degrees of chronic pain.
The
Pain Management Clinic's physicians are experienced in pain control
and provide treatment and recommendations to your primary care or
referring physician.
