Physical Medicine & Pain Management

Praful C. Singh, M.D.

Board Certified Anesthesiology · Fellowship-Trained, Interventional Pain Management

English/Hindi

Three decades of one thing: understanding where pain is actually coming from, and treating it without unnecessary surgery. If your pain has been called several different things by several different people, this is the kind of workup you have been missing.

Thirty years on one problem

Dr. Singh attended the University of Kashmir medical school, then came to the United States for an internal medicine residency at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Michigan, an anesthesiology residency at SUNY Buffalo, and a pain management fellowship at the University of Rochester. He holds a subspecialty certification in Pain Management from the American Board of Anesthesiology.

For more than three decades, his entire practice has been one thing: understanding pain and treating it — expertly, and without unnecessary surgery.

That length of experience shows up most in the cases that are not obvious. The first job is not picking a treatment. It is working out what is generating the pain, which is the step that gets skipped most often before someone ends up being offered an operation.
