"This is a very exciting time in the world of spinal cord stimulation because the technology has really exploded in the past few years. Spinal cord stimulation has been available since the late 1960s, but in the last three years we have seen a dramatic change in product development and product application, both in the United States and internationally."
Douglas L. Constant, M.D., Pain Management Specialist, Coastal Orthopedics Sports Medicine & Pain Management
With over 10 years dedicated to medicine, Dr. Constant brings a wealth of knowledge to his industry, and in particular, to his area of expertise, interventional pain medicine. When asked why he decided to pursue this specialization, Dr. Constant said:
"I'm an anesthesiologist but I practice interventional pain medicine so I wanted to have more of an opportunity to develop a relationship with my patients. As much as I enjoy physiology and the complexities of being in the operating room performing anesthesia, I felt that I could contribute more if I had an opportunity to practice interventional pain medicine since it gives me the satisfaction of helping people achieve a better quality of life when they're challenged with pain."
As a thought-leader in his field, Dr. Constant is also heavily focused on cutting edge research in pain medicine. He has completed more than ten years of clinical research on topics ranging from preoperative pain management, neuromodulation techniques, to radiofrequency ablation for occipital neuralgia. Constant also acts as a consultant to a number of medical device and pharmaceutical companies. His work has lead to numerous innovations that have seen widespread application in pain relief and pain management techniques implemented around the globe. Recently, his research has made tremendous breakthroughs in the treatment of spinal cord pain. He noted:
"This is a very exciting time in the world of spinal cord stimulation because the technology has really exploded in the past few years. Spinal cord stimulation has been available since the late 1960s, but in the last three years we have seen a dramatic change in product development and product application, both in the United States and internationally. Our research group is part of one of only two test centers in the entire United States for this type of research. The data has shown that the devices we are developing here have had a tremendous impact in helping people improve their quality of life."
Dr. Constant currently practices with Coastal Orthopedics Sports Medicine & Pain Management in Bradenton, FL where his practice touches on many aspects of pain management, but he focuses on helping individuals with spinal cord pain and complex facial pain that has been unsuccessfully treated elsewhere.
