Tanuj Palvia, MD

Interventional Pain Specialist

Board-certified specialist offering evidence-based procedures to help you avoid surgery and regain mobility.

The Right Treatment Starts With the Right Diagnosis

Pain is rarely caused by a single structure. Symptoms overlap, imaging can mislead, and generic treatments frequently fail because they target the wrong source.

Dr. Palvia's treatment selection process is diagnosis-first — every time:

  1. Step 1

    Detailed clinical evaluation and history

  2. Step 2

    Review of prior imaging — MRI, X-ray, ultrasound

  3. Step 3

    Diagnostic injections to confirm pain generators when needed

  4. Step 4

    Image-guided precision to improve safety and effectiveness

"Treatment follows the diagnosis. Not the other way around."
