Dr. Phan specializes in Interventional Pain Management.  In his words, “The pain experience has not only physical but also mental, spiritual and social implications. As a result, I am committed to a holistic and personalized approach that reflects the uniqueness of each person’s pain experience. The process starts with a precise identification of specific “pain generator” by means of diagnostic techniques (nerve blocks, joint injection, etc). Once the “pain generator” is found, a comprehensive and multidisciplinary treatment regimen which ranges from interventional procedures to medications can be implemented. In addition, a comprehensive rehabilitation program with occupational, physical therapists, acupuncturists will help maximize the functional potential of the individual as well as prevent future recurrences. No one deserves to live in pain.”

Dr. Phan is board certified by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, as well as by the American Board of Pain Medicine. He received his BS in Biochemistry from University of California, Davis, and his M.D. from New York Medical College in Valhalla, New York.  He completed a residency in Internal Medicine at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital and a fellowship in Interventional Pain Medicine at Nexus Paincare in Provo, Utah.
