Dr. Paul Vollmar, Director of the Pain Management Clinic, and his staff use powerful new fluoroscopic techniques for the precision diagnosis and treatment of persistent pain. When the true source of pain can be identified, your treatment is more precise and effective. The fluoroscope allows us to use a fine needle to precisely guide injections of medicine to the source of pain. These highly accurate injections are performed with minimal discomfort.

New therapies, such as spinal cord stimulators for low back pain, are available at the Pain Management Clinic. These therapies are revolutionizing the diagnosis and treatment of several types of pain.
