Chronic pain can have a major effect on our quality of life and can even be debilitating. SCMH offers a pain clinic run by physicians who are board-certified in pain management care for chronic pain. Our pain specialists often tell patients to seek out help for their pain early rather than enduring it for long periods of time-which can actually add to the pain problem. Early intervention will help manage the pain better and help prevent it from hindering other areas of life.
