Services
Epidural Injections
Epidural injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication to treat sciatica and back pain. Using X-ray guidance, the procedure targets inflamed nerves or injured discs for precise relief. Patients benefit from reduced pain and improved mobility without surgery.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture stimulates natural healing by inserting needles at specific points. This non-invasive treatment addresses chronic pain, muscle tension, and nerve-related conditions. It complements other therapies to enhance overall rehabilitation outcomes.
PRP Injections
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections use concentrated blood platelets to heal chronic tendonitis. Ideal for tennis elbow and partial tears, this therapy promotes tissue repair and long-term recovery through the body's natural processes.
Facet Blocks
Facet blocks inject anti-inflammatory medication into spinal joints to alleviate arthritis pain. Guided by imaging, this procedure reduces inflammation and improves joint function for patients with chronic back conditions.
Viscosupplementation
Viscosupplementation injects lubricating fluid into arthritic knees to reduce pain and stiffness. This treatment restores joint function for six months to a year, offering a non-surgical option for osteoarthritis sufferers.

Report
A herniated disc at L4-L5 had me in unbearable pain. I was given the referral on a Thursday morning and they squeezed me in that afternoon. Dr. Collins and his staff are professional and caring. I am no longer in pain and would recommend them.

Report
Easy to make appointments. Friendly staff. Dr. Brill advised an MRI, diagnosed me correctly and suggested a new-ish procedure to help me. It was easy to see he cared about me getting back to my regular activities without pain. It worked! I'm currently over a month post procedure and I feel great! I'm so appreciative of his easy going temperament, straight forward approach and his concern for my happiness-without pain! Thank you to the whole staff and to Dr. Brill for helping me.
