Pediatric Pain Management Service

The pain management experts at Monroe Carell are here to help your child cope with and overcome problems due to chronic or persistent pain. Whether due to medical or surgical care, or a chronic pain issue, our experts will partner with your primary care provider to develop a personal pain management plan for your child.

Inpatient

Our inpatient pediatric pain management service treats children having surgery or who are hospitalized due to medical conditions. We can also refer your child for physical and occupational therapy and mental health support.

Outpatient

Our outpatient pediatric pain management clinic evaluates children by referral from primary care or specialist providers. We help your child better manage pain and improve physical and psychological functioning, sometimes with medications. Our clinic operates one day per week. We are also available to answer your questions Monday through Friday via telephone.
