“Satisfaction consists in freedom from pain, which is the positive element of life.”
    – Arthur Schopenhauer

The staff of Pain Care Associates of Oklahoma have a goal of both determining the cause of your pain and also of alleviating it to the best possible extent in the least invasive manner. Treatment options are varied but are always aimed at returning you to the best quality of life.

Focusing on minimally-invasive interventional approaches, and striving to stay on the leading edge of innovations, we hope to maximize your recovery in the shortest possible time.

If needed, we will assist in coordinating your care with other health care professionals, including physical therapists and other physicians. The options for treating your pain can be as simple as medication adjustment or a targeted injection of steroids. It may also include advanced options such as outpatient placement of a patient controlled spinal cord stimulator or an intrathecal infusion system.
