A clearer path forward
The goal is not simply to mask pain with long-term medication. Solutions in Pain works to identify the likely pain generator, then considers targeted non-opioid and interventional options designed to improve function and, when clinically appropriate, reduce reliance on long-term oral pain medication.
What we treat
Diagnosis-first care.
Many people arrive knowing where they hurt, a familiar term such as Sciatica, or a symptom such as nerve pain, without knowing the exact diagnosis. That is a reasonable place to begin. Solutions in Pain starts with the history, examination, relevant imaging, and how symptoms affect movement and function to identify the likely pain generator. Treatment is then matched to the diagnosis, anatomy, goals, prior care, and medical context. A procedure is never assumed to be the next step; evaluation clarifies whether targeted care, rehabilitation, medication guidance, another specialist, or continued observation may fit.

Sciatica / lumbar radiculopathy
Nerve-root irritation may cause leg pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness. After evaluation, Epidural Steroid Injections may be considered when appropriate.
Facet-mediated back or neck pain
Medial Branch Blocks may help determine whether facet joints are a likely pain generator. Radiofrequency Ablation may be considered later only when evaluation and block response support it.
Persistent neuropathic pain
Selected patients may be evaluated for Neuromodulation options such as Spinal Cord Stimulation, DRG Stimulation, or Peripheral Nerve Stimulation when appropriate.

5 out of 5 stars
I cannot recommend this doctor highly enough. From the very beginning, Dr. David Nwokeabia was compassionate, kind, attentive, and extremely knowledgeable. After my bicycle accident, I developed significant pain related to nerve irritation, and he recognized the problem and acted quickly to help me. He performed a supraclavicular nerve block, and the entire procedure was quick, easy, and completely painless. He explained things clearly and made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the process. His prompt attention and expertise made a tremendous difference in my recovery. Thanks to his timely intervention, along with physical therapy, my symptoms have been greatly relieved. I am incredibly grateful for the care I received. It is reassuring to find a doctor who combines exceptional medical knowledge with genuine compassion and concern for his patients. If you are looking for a doctor who listens, takes your concerns seriously, acts promptly, and truly cares about your well-being, I wholeheartedly recommend him. He made a difficult experience so much easier, and I am thankful to have been under his care.

Dr. David was referred to me by one of my surgeons after a severe car accident that left me with multiple injuries and debilitating pain. When I first saw him, I relied heavily on pain medication just to get through the day. Within a few weeks of following his treatment plan, my pain significantly improved while avoiding dangerous medications. I’m incredibly grateful to Dr. David and his team for their care and support during such a difficult time.

I started seeing Dr. David Nwokeabia in 2024 after I was still experiencing severe chronic back pain following my last back surgery. I’ve always called him Dr. David, and that same year, he placed my spinal cord stimulator. Since then, my pain has been much more manageable compared to where I was before. Dr. David is very patient and takes the time to explain everything in a way that is easy to understand. He genuinely listens to my concerns and always tries to get to the root of what is causing my pain rather than just treating the symptoms. Whenever my pain changes, whether it’s the level of pain or where I’m experiencing it, he works with me to find a solution that I’m comfortable with. Most recently, I’ve had trigger point injections that have also helped with my pain. One of the things I appreciate most is how caring and personable he is. He always seems genuinely happy to see me, which makes a difference when you’re dealing with chronic pain and frequent doctor visits. I never feel rushed or like my concerns are being dismissed. He listens, explains my options, and works with me to figure out what will help. I’m very grateful for the care I’ve received from Dr. David and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a pain management doctor who listens to his patients and truly works to find solutions that improve their quality of life.

Decades of pain left me hopeless and unable to be the single mom I wanted. Dr David was compassionate, professional and believed my pain without question. He acted swiftly to schedule an epidural steroid injection and the relief left me in tears for days. Now the next steps towards the root issue are possible! I have hope again.
