Ivan has expertise in treating a range of pain conditions including nerve (neuropathic) pain, spinal pain, persistent pain after surgery, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), fibromyalgia, joint pain, headache, facial pain, abdominal / pelvic pain and other pain conditions. Minimally invasive procedures including nerve blocks, radiofrequency treatment, regenerative treatment such as platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) and implantable devices such as spinal cord stimulator (SCS) have been used successfully in providing sustained pain relief.
Ivan is committed to helping patients who suffer from any pain conditions. He understands pain not only affects every aspect of an individual’s life, but that their family and loved ones are affected too. Comprehensive assessment followed by an individualised treatment plan gives the best chance of alleviating pain and the suffering it causes. People who suffer from pain conditions can live life to the full.
