Interventional Pain Specialists - Oceanside, CA

"August 2022 My personal pain credo: Pain may be unavoidable - but suffering needlessly can be avoided altogether or at least minimized. In 2015 my General Practitioner referred me to PPMC for some pain related issues that were beyond his expertise. I am most grateful that he did. Since that time, PPMC has helped me with various pain issues in my neck, back, shoulders, elbows. Yes...I've done a lot of living and have a lifetime of experiences and injuries that have manifested more noticeably in recent years. PPMC's approach is to find the source/cause of the pain and to relieve the cause or at least to minimize associated pain. When needed, they have referred me to other practitioners such as orthopedic specialists for my current rotator cuff surgery. This was after trying several non-invasive approaches such as steroid injections along with physical therapy. My experience with PPMC is thoroughly positive and pleasant - from the front desk administration to assistants and practitioners. Kudos especially to Michael Davis for his kind attention and (actual) listening to me and coming up with various recommendations and follow through treatments. Not every pain related ailment is 'curable' but in some instances we have been able to mitigate the pain to a level where I can still function. Currently, I am in PT shoulder rehab and expect to get back to my fifty first year of surfing in November. Consider also that within a one mile radius there are countless medical services and specialists - including Tri-City Hospital that are in the same network. This makes for easy and convenient transfer of records, referrals and myriad exchange of information to help make your life easier and healthier. If I could give them more stars - I would."
