Pain Management Team
Our Cook Children's Pain Management program uses a team approach in caring for infants, children and adolescents with acute and chronic pain. Our program consists of our inpatient pain consultation service and our outpatient Pain Management clinic.
Many children we see are either referred to us by their doctor during a hospitalization or by their primary care doctor or specialist. Our Cook Children's Pain Management team works closely with your child's entire health care team across many different specialties:
