Best Somatic Nerve Block Doctors in Palm Harbor, FL

My Philosophy to patient care is to try and avoid the need for surgery unless there is no other option. When Surgery is indicated my approach is to always do the procedure that will provide the greatest benefit with the least invasiveness. Putting the patient first and ving the patient options is foremost in my paradigm.

Patients First. Compassionate Care.

As a Medical Doctor and Orthopaedic Surgeon Dr. Mates Utilizes evidence based medicine as the standard of care in his practice to provide patients with sound, tested treatment protocols. He strives to provide quality, value - based, patient - focused care through educating and guiding his patients. He understands the patients time is valuable and he will make every effort to maximize the patients comfort and convenience throughout the encounter.

Controlling pain and getting people back to the activities they enjoy is my primary focus. I employ the most up-to-date, cutting-edge protocols in total joint replacement to help minimize pain after surgery and recover quickly and safely. I have a discussion with each patient about whether surgery is right for them, and if so utilize a personalized medication and rehabilitation plan to minimize pre-operative anxiety and allow the patient to focus on their recovery.
