With the constant evolution of the pain management field, Dr. Medvedovsky is excited about the crossover of interventional pain management into minimally invasive surgery. This procedure “will eliminate the need for patients to undergo massive spinal fusions that often time lead to more long-term pain and recovery,” he said.
Comprehensive, individualized treatment plans are put together for every patient with medication management as an important component. “The key is educating patients about alternative treatment options, creating trust between physician and patient and gradually working toward the goals of reducing long term opioid use,” he said.
Developing rapport with the patient, Dr. Medvedovsky notes, is the most important part of providing quality care. “Patients have to trust us and feel confident in our skill level to perform the highly risky procedures that will help them reduce pain and suffering.”
Dr. Medvedovsky feels truly privileged to be a pain management specialist and be entrusted to provide treatments to make patients’ lives better. “The gratitude the patients express is very rewarding,” he said.
