Pain Management
The Commonwealth Pain & Spine team at Wabash General Hospital takes pain seriously. The providers are double-board-certified in anesthesiology and pain management, and we are different than most other comparable pain management clinics in how we treat our patients. That’s because we avoid the “surgery-first” route of care, and instead opt for less invasive, more cost-efficient treatment modalities. Because we recognize how exhausting it is to live with chronic pain, our team takes great care to empathize with your needs as our patient.

Conditions We Treat
Many different medical conditions can result in debilitating pain. It’s
not “just in your head.” It’s common for those with
physical pain to have emotional problems that can certainly worsen the
problem, but generally that’s only one aspect of their pain perception.
We seek to make your life pain-free, and we address each patient as a
unique individual rather than just another patient.
We treat the following conditions:
- Headaches and migraines
- Arthritis
- Back and neck pain
- Myofascial pain
- Bursitis
- Cancer pain
- Phantom limb pain
- Degenerative disc disease
- Spinal stenosis
- Sciatica
- Post-surgical pain
- Radiculopathy
- Complex regional pain syndrome
