My Commitment

I thank God for giving me the privilege to serve through this vocation. For me, being a doctor is not just a job; it's a way to love, support, and heal. I am deeply grateful to every patient who trusts me and allows me to be a part of their journey toward well-being.

Conditions

At my clinic, I specialize in managing a wide range of painful conditions. My goal is to provide you with effective and lasting relief, significantly improving your quality of life. Below are some of the conditions I treat:

  1. Trigeminal neuralgia:
    Intense, sharp, stabbing facial pain, often described as an electric shock.
  2. Spinal pain
    Covers chronic pain in the neck (cervicalgia), upper back (dorsalgia), and lower back (lumbalgia), often radiating.
  3. Chronic back pain
    Persistent discomfort that can severely limit daily activities, affecting any segment of the spine.
  4. Neuropathic pain and neuralgias
    This type of pain arises from nerve damage or dysfunction, manifesting as burning, tingling, numbness, or electric shock sensations. It is commonly associated with conditions such as multiple sclerosis, diabetes, and the after-effects of shingles.
  1. Sports injury pain
    Conditions such as tendinitis, sprains, muscle tears, or joint injuries resulting from physical activity.
  2. Arthrosis and joint pain
    Cartilage wear in joints like knees, hips, shoulders, and hands, causing pain, stiffness, and limited movement.
  3. Cancer pain
    Pain associated with cancer, whether from the tumor itself, its metastases, or the side effects of treatments.
  4. Headaches and migraines
    Different types of headaches, from tension headaches to severe migraines with symptoms like throbbing, nausea, and sensitivity to light/sound.

Procedures and Services

At my clinic, I offer a range of advanced services and procedures dedicated to effective pain management. My approach is always personalized, starting with a thorough consultation and evaluation for a precise diagnosis and a treatment plan tailored to you, ensuring the best possible results.

Anesthesiology

The application of anesthetic techniques to ensure your comfort and safety during procedures, allowing for pain management without discomfort.

Injections

Injections are a fundamental tool to relieve pain directly at its source. Through this minimally invasive procedure, we inject medications (such as anesthetics or anti-inflammatories) into joints, muscles, or the spine to quickly and effectively reduce inflammation and pain.

Radiofrequency Ablation

Radiofrequency ablation is an innovative treatment that uses controlled heat to deactivate the nerves that transmit pain signals to the brain. It is a long-lasting option for patients with chronic back, neck, or joint pain, offering significant and prolonged relief.

Neurolysis

Neurolysis is a procedure performed to block pain signals from specific nerves. It involves applying a substance or physical agent that temporarily interrupts nerve function, providing substantial relief in cases of severe chronic pain, especially cancer-related pain.

Neuromodulation

Neuromodulation involves the use of implantable devices that emit gentle electrical pulses to alter nerve signals and reduce pain. It is an advanced therapy for patients who do not respond to other treatments and can be an excellent option for improving long-term quality of life.

Regenerative therapy for tendon injuries

This therapy focuses on stimulating the body's natural healing process to repair damaged tendons. We use advanced techniques to encourage tissue regeneration, helping patients recover from chronic or acute injuries and regain the strength and function of their tendons.

Such a lovely Doctor. It's a tremendous anecdote; only those who have experienced terrible pain can tell their story. My pain originated from brachial plexus surgery; it was unbearable. I reached a point where I thought the best thing was to disappear from the map, but God in his infinite mercy put you in my path... today, with your help, I control the pain. Blessings, doctor, God has given you the gift of helping those in need. Thank you very much.
