The Advent Health Pain Specialists physicians have been treating patients with painful conditions since 1969.

Each year we evaluate and treat thousands of patients. All of our specialists are Board-certified and ABA sub-specialty certified in pain management, with advanced training in diagnosing and treating acute and chronic pain of the spine and musculoskeletal systems. We utilize state-of-the-art image guided techniques to ensure safety and accuracy. We specialize in a multidisciplinary approach to assessing and treating pain, which includes a full-time clinical psychologist who specializes in treating the psychological effects of dealing with chronic pain.

Interventional Pain Medicine

Interventional Pain Medicine refers to a group of minimally invasive surgical procedures typically done as an outpatient to alleviate acute, chronic, or cancer-related pain conditions.

Device Implants

For persistent pain, not responsive to other types of therapy, consideration may be given for a spinal cord stimulator or, in some cases an implantable pain pump.

A patient’s comments after Epidural Steriod Injections
“On a trip to Norway, we went to tour gardens and I had to sit on the bus because the pain was so bad after that we had to give up traveling. I had very little quality of life left. After the treatment the difference was night and day, I went from being in constant pain and limited in activity to being totally unaware that anything was wrong.” Advent Health Pain Specialists was just wonderful. The staff and the physicians really get to know you and are so helpful. They are very good about explaining your course of treatment and helping you understand what is happening. I learned that with pain, it is important to get help and not delay. There are too many beautiful things to do and see to be limited by pain.”

A patient’s comments about the Advent Health Pain Specialists
“Life is more comfortable when you’re not aching with every step,” said Jesperson. “The staff at the Advent Health Pain Specialists helped me get back to my life. They were always honest with me, and now I think of them as family.” Before Jesperson was treated at the Advent Health Pain Specialists, there were days when she couldn’t get out of bed because she was in so much pain. Today, Jesperson doesn’t let her pain keep her from doing the things she loves. She’s back to working in her garden and no longer needs bed rest to keep her pain at bay.
A patient’s comments after epidural steroid injections
“The treatment helped. It got rid of the sharp pain between my spine and hip joint. They make you feel like family at the Advent Health Pain Specialists. They’re very patient, but still professional. They explain everything to you, and answer all your questions. They are number one.”
A patient’s comments after a Radio Frequency Ablation (RFA) procedure
“I was able to fly to Denver to visit my grandkids on Valentine’s Day just two weeks after the procedure,” says Phelps. “I’m walking at least a mile a day, lifting weights and plan to go back to golfing this summer. It’s back to day-to-day normal activities for me.” She says the procedure took about an hour and there were no side effects. “Everyone was so caring at Advent Health Pain Specialists, following up with me regularly,” concludes Phelps. “They were upfront right from the start that my pain might not go away or it might return if or when the nerves grow back. I won’t hesitate to have RFA again if necessary. It’s given me a new lease on life and the ability to spend quality time with my children and all my grandchildren.”
