UF Health Pain Medicine at UF Health Medical Specialties — Ocala Neighborhood Hospital offers a comprehensive suite of services to the Ocala area and surrounding communities. With minimally invasive, interventional treatments and drug-free options for addressing pain, we aim to create a plan that meets your lifestyle and needs.
Your first appointment
Our team of pain management specialists will evaluate you to recommend a plan that works with your goals. This is a three-step process:
1. Understand history
You'll complete a patient questionnaire about your pain-related issues. Please provide as much detail as possible. If you have received care or imaging studies outside of UF Health, please bring all relevant pain medicine treatment records, X-ray or MRI studies, and their interpretations.
2. Provide recommendations
A physician may ask to perform a physical exam. They may also discuss your medical history in greater detail. From there, they will recommend pain management and pain relief options that fit your unique needs.
3. Begin pain treatment plan
Your care team includes specialty-trained physicians in anesthesiology and pain medicine, as well as advanced registered nurses and staff.
