Pain Management
Interventional Pain Management
HRRMC Pain Management specializes in the treatment of chronic pain conditions caused by injury, illness, disease or surgery.
Pain has many causes, and that can make treatment difficult. Diagnosing the source of one's pain is key to prescribing proper pain relief. Our clinic providers work as a team with our patients to create customized treatment plans for acute and chronic pain conditions. Hear more from nurse practitioner Ellie Curie in the video above.
