Dr. George Arthur Edwards, MD

What We Do:
Millions of people suffer every day from chronic (long-term) or acute (short-term) pain caused by any number of conditions:

Cancer pain * Stroke or neurological disease pain * Lower back pain * Arthritis * Shingles * Failed back surgery * Neck and back pain from degenerative diseases or injuries * Chronic muscle spasm * Diabetic and other neuropathies * Neuralgias
Trigeminal neuralgia * Reflex sympathetic dystrophy * Pain from peripheral vascular disease * Chronic headache non-migraine * Repetitive motion injuries and carpal tunnel syndrome * Post-surgical pain

Over the years, we have learned a great deal about how to control pain with medications, surgery, and other treatments. Today, we know more than ever about the causes and mechanisms of pain, and medical research has produced dramatic improvements in the ways we diagnose and treat painful disorders.
