Seeking medical pain specialist

Posted by Solomon on January 5, 2015, 12:34 pm

Hi -

Does anyone know of a fairly local doctor who specializes in treating chronic pain, who speaks English? I need to see someone down here. Willing to travel to Manzanillo, Cihuatlan, or even Puerto Vallarta.

I speak Spanish, but my medical records are in English.

Thanks.

I don't know if you can call her a medical pain specialist, but Isabelle Ma is a Canadian acupunturist who treated me of my long standing back pain. I would heartily recommend her. Her e-mail is; lotushealing@shaw.ca. You can tell her that you got to her from the message board. Good luck. PS. She is from Salt Spring Island, and speaks excellent french, english and spanish

Thanks, but I've seen an acupuncturist before (he was a master-level teacher in an accredited acupuncture college, so no slouch) for several years and while it was useful for some things, it was not helpful for my pain. I don't expect acupuncture will be the solution.

Great idea, though.
