Welcome to St. Luke's Interventional Pain Management
St. Luke’s Interventional Pain Management Clinic provides pain management
services designed to improve the quality of life and overall function
of patients. Dr. Kathryn Thompson treats chronic, acute and cancer pain
through a multimodal, comprehensive approach, including medication recommendations,
interventional therapies, and referrals.
The clinic is consultative, and throughout the process, the primary care
provider and Dr. Thompson work as a team with patients. Our goal is to
include coordination of strategies that provide relief of pain, prevention
of prolonged disability, and enhancement of quality of life. Less invasive
options are considered first, and if deemed ineffective, more invasive
pain management options may be considered. Once an effective management
regimen is established, patients continue to work with their primary care
physician.
