Approach to care

Dr. Christina Le-Short believes in treating the whole person, not just the pain. Recognizing that chronic pain is rarely only physical, she develops personalized, multimodal care plans that may incorporate physical therapy, behavioral health support, interventional procedures, and medication when appropriate.
