What you can expect from your first visit
If you are referred for a clinical consultation with the Pain Management Program, the first visit is a comprehensive evaluation. Our patients are often able to schedule their initial encounter as a video visit. You’ll get the same personalized attention and high-quality medical care during a video appointment that you would in-person.
Before you meet with us, it’s helpful to think about your specific functional goals. During your evaluation, our pain specialists will talk with you about your symptoms, perform an exam and discuss your goals. In some cases, we may need additional tests to get a better understanding of your condition.
Once your evaluation is complete, we’ll use that information to create a personalized treatment plan to manage your pain and work toward achieving your goals.
