The health care professionals of the Center for Pain Management at Stony Brook are dedicated
to the diagnosis
and treatment of acute, chronic, benign and cancer-related pain. Chronic pain is not a specific
disease like asthma or diabetes, so isolating the specific cause of pain and starting appropriate
treatment is not always simple. There are no clinical tests to verify the presence of pain or measure
its intensity.
Through the broad training and experience of our staff, we are able to offer services to children
as well as adults and treat many pain syndromes. Our patients who come to this Center have gone through
diagnostic tests, MRIs, CAT scans and even surgery. The results of their tests often come back negative,
but the pain is still there. We believe their pain is real, whatever the cause! Our aim is to treat the
cause of pain and return our patients to their normal lifestyle.
We understand the complexity of our patient's pain and the suffering experienced by many individuals
with persistent pain. Our pain team includes dedicated experts in pain medicine. If necessary, our
patients are referred to other pain specialists. A multidisciplinary approach is very often warranted.
We work closely with our patient's referring physician, as well as their insurance carrier. In some
cases, we are able to offer detailed medical assessments to help resolve confusion about your diagnosis,
physical functioning and work status.
The Department of Anesthesiology's Center for Pain Management at Stony Brook
was established in 1984.
The goal of our treatment is to help patients gain control over their pain and
lead normal, active and meaningful lives at home and in their community.
Working with each patient is always a challenge and much thought, time and effort
is given to each individual. By doing this we are all continually learning more
about chronic pain and how best to manage it. Most of all we have learned to
appreciate the uniqueness of each individual patient.
