Who is a good pain management doctor in the Florida Panhandle?

[fishmouth81]

I am looking for a pain management doctor between Pensacola and Panama City, Florida to continue my narcotic pain meds. I can travel further if someone could point me in the right direction. Even some parts of Alabama would be OK as long as it isn't too far from Florida. Thanks in advance for any input you may have.

I hope that you have tried correction of the underlying problem before you jump to prescription meds.  Many patients we see get caught up in a cycle of pain meds with no hope.  Try to find a multidisiplinary clinic with procedural pain medicine and possibly acupuncture or chiropractic and decompression therapy.  We are probably too far from you for treatment but I hope you find a cure so you dont need the meds.  That is what we strive for in our office.

Hi Traycee,
   The site you recommended was not working. I have included one that is great though.

They have great articles from the Journal of pain.

Be careful of the clinics in Broward county. If you have seen the news on some of them they are pill mills. You need a doctor that will monitor you and give you all the options available and not just a doc feel good.
There are some wonderful docs out there and some who are just in it for the money. A doctor that is caring and compassionate but that will also look out for your well being is a doctor you need and not just a doc who will fill your prescriptions.

I have been looking for the correct name of the doctor I know in Pensacola. I do not have the correct spelling so I can't locate it. I am still looking though:)
