A person with pain.

Pain Specialist

At Chicago Pain Medicine Center, our primary objective is to deliver the highest quality of care through our team of experienced specialists. We employ a multidisciplinary approach to pain management to ensure comprehensive treatment.

"In October 2023, the opioid shortage has worsened, driven by tightening regulations, production cuts due to quota reductions, and efforts to prevent diversion. The lack of communication from pharmaceutical companies and the DEA, combined with the absence of federal action to increase production, has left patients and healthcare providers struggling. Many are now facing limited access to essential pain medications."

​

We apologize for this situation, which is beyond our control. CPMC remains committed to offering alternative pain relief options that are equivalent or superior.

Rachel H.

I have been suffering from chronic back pain for many years. I have tried all sorts of treatments, from medication to physical therapy, but nothing seemed to work until I tried Dr. Diesfeld's epidural injection treatment. Now I can do the things I love again.
