Pain Management

A Comprehensive Approach to Chronic Pain Management

Chronic pain can get in the way of healing, recovery and everyday life. It results in more than 50 million lost workdays each year and is the most common symptom that leads to medical care, according to the American Pain Society.

The Nicholas and Louella Martin Center for Chronic Pain Management at Baylor All Saints Medical Center at Fort Worth offers an interdisciplinary resource for families and patients to turn to for coping with and reducing persistent pain.

We offer individualized evaluations and behavioral treatment of chronic pain associated with back, shoulder, neck and arm dysfunction, fibromyalgia, headache and many other pain conditions. 

The Martin Center offers physician consultation by board-certified pain management physicians on the medical staff at Baylor Fort Worth. These physicians are integral to our comprehensive approach.

Our interdisciplinary team includes nurses, psychologists, physical therapists and other allied health professionals. In addition, chaplains, registered dietitians, pharmacists and other specialized staff are available on-site to enhance patient recovery and wellness.
