Urgent Treatment by Pain Management Experts
Wellstar’s board-certified pain medicine experts help people feel better quickly and safely. Each person we care for is different, so we work to find non-surgical solutions that are right for you. Our non-invasive and minimally-invasive treatment options include injection therapies, implantable pain management devices or rehabilitation. We don’t prescribe or manage pain medication.Collaborative care
Wellstar’s board-certified pain management physicians follow a multidisciplinary approach, combining therapies and disciplines. We work closely with physical therapists and chiropractors to offer comprehensive pain management services. If we find you are a candidate for spine surgery, we will refer you to an expert neurosurgeon.Our experts have experts
