Aurora

Pain Management Doctors in Aurora, CO

Our clinics in Aurora, east and southeast.

Mountain View Pain Center treats pain in Aurora medically, not just manually. Care begins with a real diagnosis — a full exam, and imaging where the findings call for it — and the plan that follows can include Chiropractic care, Physical Therapy and Acupuncture at both of our Aurora clinics: East Aurora at Southlands and Southeast Aurora on Briarwood Circle. Where an image-guided injection or an interventional procedure is indicated, it is performed at our Northglenn and InterQuest clinics or at our surgery center in Denver, and spine injections are also performed at Lowry on specific days; evaluation and scheduling happen in Aurora.

No referral is needed to be seen. Call (720) 749-5599.

Spanish-language communication is available at every clinic through real-time translation.

  • Headaches and migraines, including pain that starts at the base of the skull
  • Auto injuries and whiplash, documented to the standard a claim requires
  • Chronic pain that has not settled with conservative treatment alone
Your first visit

How a Pain Management Visit Works at Our Aurora Clinics

Diagnosis before treatment. A full history and examination, with imaging ordered when the findings call for it rather than as a formality. You will leave the first visit understanding what is causing your symptoms.

The least invasive thing that will work. Many Aurora patients are managed with Chiropractic care and Physical Therapy alone. Injections and interventional options are available when they are genuinely the right next step, not as a default.

One team, one chart. If your plan needs to change — imaging added, an interventional option considered, Physical Therapy brought in — it changes inside the same building, without a referral out or a repeated history.

Spine

Back Pain and Neck Pain Treatment in Aurora

Most Aurora patients arrive with pain in the lower back or the neck, and most have already tried rest, over-the-counter medication and time. What separates a case that resolves from one that keeps returning is usually the diagnosis rather than the treatment: a disc problem, a facet joint, an irritated nerve root and a muscular strain all hurt in similar places and respond to entirely different care.

Our pain physicians identify which of those is driving your symptoms, then treat accordingly — with medication management, targeted injections, or a referral down the hall to Chiropractic care or Physical Therapy.

Nerve pain

Sciatica and Nerve Pain Treatment in Aurora

Nerve pain announces itself differently from muscular pain. Instead of a dull ache in one place, you feel sharp, burning or electric sensations that travel, often with numbness, tingling or weakness further down the limb. In the lower back this commonly presents as sciatica, with pain running through the buttock and down the leg.

Treatment begins with identifying where the nerve is being compressed, because treating the site of the symptom rarely resolves it. Options at our Aurora clinics range from conservative care through to decompression. Where the findings support an epidural steroid injection or a nerve block, that procedure is performed at our Northglenn and InterQuest clinics or at our surgery center in Denver, and at Lowry on specific days.

Joints

Hip, Knee and Shoulder Pain Treatment in Aurora

Joint pain is one of the most common reasons Aurora patients search for a pain clinic, and one of the areas where non-surgical options are most often overlooked. Arthritis, bursitis, rotator cuff irritation and post-injury stiffness all respond to a combination of joint injections, Physical Therapy and activity modification.

We assess the whole chain rather than the painful joint in isolation — a knee that hurts on stairs is frequently a hip that has stopped rotating — and we will tell you plainly when a surgical opinion is the right next step.

How we are built

What makes this different from a standalone pain clinic

Most pain clinics can only offer what is in the building. At our Aurora locations, four service lines sit under one roof: medical Pain Management, Chiropractic care, Physical Therapy and Acupuncture. Your pain physician can see what your physical therapist is working on and what your imaging showed, because it is one record rather than four.

That matters most for the cases that do not resolve in a straight line — chronic pain, nerve pain, and injuries that keep coming back.

Pain Management appointments are available at the East Aurora and Southeast Aurora clinics.

Board-certified Pain Management physicians and physician assistants see patients across our Aurora clinics, working alongside the chiropractors, physical therapists and acupuncturists in the same building. You can see who practices where on our Colorado Pain Management providers page, or browse the full provider directory.

Before you come in

Aurora Pain Management FAQs

Do I need a referral to see a Pain Management provider in Aurora?

No. You can book directly. If your plan requires a referral for a specific procedure, we will tell you before your visit.

Will I be offered injections at my first appointment?

Not automatically. The first visit is about establishing what is causing the pain. Many patients never need an injection.

I was in a car accident in Aurora. Can you help?

Yes. Our Aurora clinics treat auto injuries daily and document care to the standard your claim will require. See car accident Chiropractic care and whiplash treatment.

Can I see a pain physician and a physical therapist?

Yes, and many patients do. Both work in the same clinic and coordinate through one shared chart. See Physical Therapy in Aurora and Chiropractic care in Aurora.

Do you accept Medicare and Colorado Medicaid?

Yes (Colorado Medicaid for Pain Management and Physical Therapy only), along with most major commercial plans, workers' compensation, and auto and lien cases. We verify your specific benefits before your visit.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Photo ID, your insurance card, any prior imaging (on disc or through a patient portal), and a list of your current medications. If you were injured in a crash or at work, bring your claim number.

How long is the first visit?

Plan for a full evaluation rather than a quick check-in. Your physician will take a history, examine you, review imaging, and leave you with a plan before you go.

Will I be put on opioids?

The approach is conservative and rehabilitative first. Medication management is available where it is clinically appropriate, and it is not the default.

Is the pain treatment non-surgical?

Yes. The focus is non-surgical, opioid-sparing care, escalating only when it is needed.

Can I get a second opinion on a surgery recommendation?

Yes. If a surgeon has recommended an operation, our pain physicians will review your history and the imaging you already have, and go through the non-surgical options first — injections, Physical Therapy, Chiropractic care and spinal decompression among them. Bring any relevant imaging to the first visit. No referral is needed to be seen.

What treatment looks like

Procedures our Aurora pain physicians perform

Treatment follows the diagnosis. A diagnostic block numbs one structure at a time, and the response tells us which one is producing the pain before anything longer-lasting is done. In Colorado, procedures are performed at our Northglenn and InterQuest clinics and at our surgery center in Denver.

  • Epidural steroid injections for nerve pain from a herniated or degenerative disc, and for spinal stenosis
  • Nerve blocks and medial branch blocks for pain arising from the small joints of the spine
  • Radiofrequency ablation for longer-term relief once medial branch blocks have confirmed the source
  • Trigger point injections for myofascial pain that has not released with manual therapy
  • Joint injections for the shoulder, knee and hip
  • Spinal cord stimulation where nerve pain has not responded to anything more conservative

Alongside these, Physical Therapy, Chiropractic care and Acupuncture run in the same Aurora clinics, so a plan can move between them without a new referral or a repeated history.

After a collision

Hurt in a car accident in Aurora?

Crash injuries follow a different path through the clinic. Care is generally billed to auto medical-payments coverage or on a lien where an attorney is involved, and the documentation is written as the treatment happens rather than assembled afterwards.

See car accident injury treatment in Aurora for how that works, or read about whiplash treatment and seeing a chiropractor after a car accident.

Each complaint is written up for the metro: Denver sciatica treatment, Denver herniated disc treatment, Denver low back pain treatment, Denver neck pain treatment, Denver knee pain treatment and Denver neuropathy treatment.

So is each procedure: Denver epidural steroid injections, Denver radiofrequency ablation, Denver spinal cord stimulators, Denver kyphoplasty and Denver nerve blocks.

For collisions, by city: Lakewood, Lone Tree, Highlands Ranch, Greeley, Lafayette and Fort Collins.

Towns we also serve: Broomfield, Thornton, Windsor, Louisville and Loveland.

Pain that has not settled on its own deserves a real workup.
