Living with ongoing pain can affect the way you move, sleep, work, and enjoy daily life. Kennedy White Surgery Center offers interventional pain management for patients who need focused care for pain that has not improved enough with basic treatment. The goal is simple: help the care team find the source of pain and deliver targeted relief in a safe outpatient setting.
Pain management at Kennedy White Surgery Center may include procedures such as nerve block injections, spinal cord stimulator implants, pain pump placement, and radiofrequency ablation. Your physician will recommend a plan only after reviewing your symptoms, medical history, imaging when needed, and previous treatments.
| Procedure | Plain language purpose |
| Nerve block injection | Targets a specific nerve area to help reduce pain signals and support diagnosis. |
| Radiofrequency ablation | Uses controlled heat to quiet certain pain carrying nerves for longer relief in selected patients. |
| Spinal cord stimulator | Uses a small implanted device to change how pain signals travel before they reach the brain. |
| Pain pump placement | Places medicine closer to the needed area when a physician believes this approach fits the patient. |
The team focuses on clear preparation, careful monitoring, and a smooth recovery experience. Before your procedure, staff members review instructions for food, drink, medicines, arrival time, transportation, and support after discharge. On the day of care, the team confirms your details, answers questions, and keeps comfort and safety at the center of the visit.
Interventional pain care does not promise instant or permanent relief for every patient. Results can vary based on the condition, the procedure, and the body response. Your physician will explain what the procedure may do, what it cannot do, and what follow-up may involve.
Please follow these instructions carefully prior to your surgery to help ensure your procedure goes as smoothly as possible. Your health, safety, and comfort will be our primary concern during your stay.
