We just got new expanded seating in our waiting room for your comfort & convenience!

At The Mocek Spine Clinic, this year for safety, we are phasing our the use of opiates for pain relief in combination with benzodiazepines for anxiety. New data shows this can be a very risky combination. Therefore, our patients will no longer be allowed to remain on this combo. We are already beginning to prescribe safer alternatives!

More & more of our patients with pain pumps are opting to give up the low dose short acting oral pain meds for breakthrough pain. They are switching to the PTM bolus device on the pump that can be activated. Patients are reporting back to us that the PTM on the pump now often works much better than the current low dose of oral opiates available by mouth.

There is a clear link now proven between movement of our spines that results in marked increased nutrition & stimulation of our brains! This is why even regular water therapy is a very important exercise for our bodies. People who exercise regularly have a much lower chance of one day having Alzheimer’s!

At The Mocek Spine Clinic, our last scheduled opiod dosage drop for safety will be on September 1, 2018. By this fall, all of our patients, (except those with end of life care), will be @ a max of 50 MORPHINE EQUIVALENT DOSE (MME) or less.

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!
