About
Research & publications
Clinical practice and clinical evidence should inform each other. Our physicians participate in peer-reviewed publication, device and technique research, and the teaching of trainees in the region.
Why it matters to patients
Pain medicine moves quickly. Neuromodulation waveforms, radiofrequency techniques and medication guidance have all changed substantially in the last decade, and several once-standard treatments have not held up under scrutiny.
Staying engaged with the literature is how we keep offering what works and stop offering what does not. It also shapes how we talk with patients: when the evidence for a treatment is strong, we say so; when it is limited, we say that too.
If you would like the published evidence supporting a treatment we have recommended, ask at your visit. We are glad to provide it.
Areas of interest
Neuromodulation outcomes
Patient selection, trial methodology and long-term outcomes for spinal cord stimulation in post-surgical and neuropathic pain.
Interventional technique
Refinement of fluoroscopic technique for cervical and lumbar procedures, with attention to accuracy and radiation exposure.
Battlefield and acute pain medicine
Regional anesthesia and multimodal approaches for acute injury, and the transition from acute care to long-term management.
Opioid stewardship
Evaluating how interventional therapy changes long-term medication requirements and monitoring practice.
