Bay Area Pain Medical Associates is a medical group focused on the treatment of people with intractable pain. Our goal is to help our patients reduce their pain to manageable levels through strategies that take into account the complexities of their conditions. We work from the underlying physical cause of our patient's pain, the psychological effects of chronic pain and the social adjustments precipitated by the pain. By evaluating each person's case carefully we attempt to arrive upon the optimal treatment plan for helping our patients increase their function, improve the quality of their lives and effectively plan for the future. We employ the most up to date and efficacious advances in medicine and combine this with a psychologically sound approach to recovery of the richness of life. Establishing acceptable pain control is our primary treatment objective.
