The Mocek Spine Clinic makes a bold move this year to the use of only low dose opiates for pain relief!

Doctor Mocek received advanced medical training for the treatment of invasive cancer pain while he was @ the Johns Hopkins Hospital as a fellow. In conjunction with CARTI, he is now using this training to help cancer patients have less pain & a better quality of life!

We offer optional nitrous oxide sedation with pure oxygen for all of your spine procedures @ our clinic!
