Associated with  Broward County


Our Presentation This Month...


Surgery Isn’t for Everybody... Non-Surgical, Non-Narcotic Procedures for Dealing with Chronic Pain
Dr. Nancy Erickson
Interventional Pain Management

(THIS QUALIFIES AS A CEU PRESENTATION FOR ADJUSTERS AND CASE MANAGERS)


Surgery isn't for everybody...
Surgery is an invasive and expensive path to pain relief, but it isn’t the only path.  In this presentation, Dr. Erickson will discuss the newest procedures to alleviate chronic pain.  Using case studies, she will present non-surgical, non-narcotic pain-relief options specific to the injury.  In addition to avoiding surgery, very often these new procedures can help reduce drug utilization, improve physical function, avoid overnight hospitalization by only requiring outpatient procedures, and are minimally invasive.  As an example, Cooled Radiofrequency (RF) Treatment is a minimally-invasive, outpatient treatment option targeting nerves that are causing pain. 
 
Surgery isn’t for everyone for a variety of reasons, including health concerns and recovery time - alternative treatments are available and should be checked out.
