My mission is to help as many people get out of pain so they can start living again; over the years I have grown frustrated with our ‘sick-care’ system which has been focused on reducing symptoms with medications while never addressing the problem. This is no different than a doctor telling a patient to take painkillers for foot pain caused by a pebble in their shoe when physically removing the pebble is the obvious solution.

Today, most people go for a quick fix with Aleve, Ibuprofen, painkillers, and cortisone shots, and when those quit working they are told to get surgery. This is no different than the pebble in the shoe earlier and many surgeries could be avoided if the cause of the pain was managed earlier. One of the reasons why we are able to help so many patients is because of the new, cutting-edge treatments and other types of providers I work with to treat difficult cases.

My passion for treating pain started as a result of my life experience as a pain sufferer many years ago when I was hit by another driver in a head-on car collision. I sustained very significant injuries to my neck and lower back and couldn’t sit for more than 20 minutes with a searing pain in my buttocks and woke up with neck aches every morning as a result of this. I did the usual, which was medications and physiotherapy but after 6-months of this I still had major symptoms and when my doctor suggested an orthopedic surgeon referral, I decided to take another route.
