Highly-Rated St. Louis Pain Doctors

Our pain management and physical rehabilitation physicians take a multi-modal approach to spine care, utilizing the latest techniques and technologies to create an optimal plan for each patient, which may include lifestyle modifications, physical therapy, medications, ultrasound-guided injections, implantable devices, and more. Emphasizing conservative treatment whenever possible, we can help you manage your neck or back pain caused by osteoarthritis, degenerative disc disease, a pinched nerve, a strained muscle, poor posture, a bulging or herniated disc, spinal stenosis, whiplash from a car accident, stress, and many other underlying sources. We’ll thoroughly explain all of your options, allowing you to make fully informed treatment decisions so you can reclaim your active lifestyle as quickly and safely as possible.

Additionally, if you ultimately elect surgical treatment for your neck or back pain, you can feel confident entrusting your care to our board-certified, fellowship-trained Signature Orthopedics orthopedic surgeons. Our team performs both traditional and advanced surgical procedures, including minimally invasive and computer-navigated spine surgery, discectomy, laminotomy, foraminotomy, spinal decompression, alternatives to spinal fusion, and motion-sparing spine surgery.

Safety First

During the COVID-19 crisis, doctors’ offices and healthcare facilities are considered essential services. Therefore, Signature Orthopedics continues to treat patients while taking extra precautions to maintain the safety and well-being of the patients in our care.

Signature Orthopedics continues to be a “one-stop shop,” providing onsite imaging (X-ray and MRI), casting, splinting, injections, and other immediate pain or orthopedic care services.
