At Arrowhead Orthopaedics we recognize that for some patients and some injuries chronic pain may linger even after all medical and surgical options have been exhausted. For these patients, persistent pain may diminish their ability to perform daily chores and maintain a sense of normalcy in their lives.

Patients can benefit from the services of Dr. Jonathan Lee, Dr. Scott Strum, Dr. Anirudh Kadambi and Dr. Anna Nikachina, trained physiatrists. Our physiatrists monitor the level of pain and develop a custom pain management plan for each patient. The group is in the process of developing a multi-disciplinary network of providers to address the chronic pain management needs of AO patients.

Each physician specializes in treating a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions and helping patients improve their functional status. Our physicians are proactive in treating patients with chronic pain and are board certified in pain management and rehabilitation.
