Pain:

Pain is considered to be the fifth vital sign. We as your healthcare provider would like to assist you with any pain you might possibly have. Prompt, appropriate treatment of pain facilitates a successful clinical exam and enhances your ability to undergo any tests that might be necessary to make an accurate diagnosis. However, it is at your physician’s discretion to prescribe any narcotic pain medication.  At times, surgery is the only definitive treatment for your pain and this office will not prescribe pain medications in place of surgery. Please discuss any pain control concerns with your healthcare team.
