For Patients

Our vision is to provide state of the art acute pain management to our patients. Thanks to our advance techniques we can minimize opioid exposure and fight the current opioid epidemic outbreak. Our approach is patient centered and starts with assessment, education and simple psychologic interventions to select an individualized care plan that includes, when indicate, single injection and continuous regional anesthesia. We have multiple pathways to assure consistency, but we are not afraid to innovate when necessary. Many patients enjoy a shorter hospital stay or ambulatory stay thanks to our care. Our daily team places about 5,000 nerve blocks every year with 3 residents, 4 fellows and 2 attending physicians assisted with anesthesia technicians and nurses. We have 11 attending physicians sharing the responsibility of the divisions to provide 24/7 coverage.
