As a Pain Medicine Physician, Dr. Chernoff is focused on alleviating pain through individualized treatment plans that are effective and compassionate.
"I begin by conducting a thorough assessment of your condition, taking into account your medical history, lifestyle, and specific pain symptoms. From there, I tailor a personalized treatment plan that may include a combination of opioid sparing medications, interventional procedures, physical therapy, psychotherapy and lifestyle modifications. I feel it is crucial to prioritize open communication with you, ensuring you are actively involved in your care decisions and understand the potential risks and benefits of each treatment option. Ultimately, my goal is to alleviate suffering and improve the quality of life for those in pain, providing them with the support and relief they need to regain control over their lives."
