What We Treat

Few common highlights

Breast Pain

Chronic pain after breast surgery such as mastectomy or augmentation, often caused by nerve damage. Treated with targeted nerve repair.

Migraines & Occipital Neuralgia

Debilitating chronic headaches that may originate from nerve compression or trauma. Surgical decompression can reduce or eliminate pain.

Groin Pain

Persistent pain after hernia repair, hysterectomy or C-section. Often due to nerve injury and misdiagnosed. Surgery can provide relief.

Knee Pain

Post-surgical or trauma-related nerve pain around the knee, causing numbness or hypersensitivity. Often unresponsive to standard treatments.

Oral & Dental Nerve Injuries

Numbness or pain after wisdom tooth extraction, implants or oral surgery. Lingual and alveolar nerve reconstruction improves sensation.

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

Compression of nerves between the neck and shoulder causing pain, numbness, and weakness in the arm. Treated with surgical decompression.

Meralgia Paresthetica

Burning or tingling sensation along the outer thigh caused by compression of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve.

Compression Neuropathies

Chronic nerve compression conditions like carpal tunnel or tarsal tunnel syndrome. Surgery relieves pressure on the affected nerves.
