Philosophy
neurosurgeon Dr. Erika Petersen
Pain is one of the primary reasons that patients consult physicians. Despite that, it is poorly treated and often merely masked by medications. We believe in working with you to investigate the cause of your pain and treat it at the origin. We believe in a team-centered approach with consultation from other UAMS physicians including neurosurgeons, physical medicine and rehab physicians, neurologists, psychologists, physical therapists, and others. We believe in minimally invasive techniques to treat pain in the spine, muscles, nerves, and joints. We believe in utilizing the most current research and techniques to ensure that you have the best possible results.
