Treatments

Treatments for pain have never been more promising and effective.  Medical technology is rapidly advancing pain treatment options and what was only experimental several years ago may be common, everyday treatments today.  Dr. Bryan Lee, through his advanced pain and anesthesia training, along with continuing education, will be able to recommend the best treatment options for you, whether they be medications, physical therapy, complementary and alternative medicine, and/or procedural interventions.

The following is a partial list of common and advanced interventional pain procedures performed by Dr. Lee.  Many of these procedures are done under fluoroscopic guidance (i.e. live X-ray monitoring) for accuracy and safety.  Furthermore, you will usually be given IV conscious sedation (i.e. “twilight sleep”) for your comfort during the procedure.
