Everyone must have experienced pain at some point in life. Be it a mild or chronic pain, it can be debilitating and draining. It ruins day-to-day life and the individual’s productivity. At that point, everyone will look for an expert who can help mitigate the pain and set life back on track. In New York City, one such expert is Dr. Douglas Schottenstein, M.D., a well-reputed pain management doctor, helping hundreds of people find pain relief and improve their quality of life.
ThreeBestRated®, a dedicated website aimed at finding the best businesses across various categories, has identified Dr. Schottenstein as one of the top three pain management doctors in New York City. This serves as a testament to his years of excellence and commitment to patient care.
Upon winning the award, Dr. Schottenstein said, “Receiving the ThreeBestRated award makes me feel great. I would like to pursue the highest level of patient care. I thoroughly enjoy it and it is nice to be noticed.”
Personalization as a Strategic Approach
Dr Schottenstein believes that managing chronic pain is not all about one-size-fits-all solutions; it is about giving patients the freedom to explore their comfort level.
“Chronic pain is good in a way because all the treatment is non-obligatory and non-mandatory, ” said Dr. Schottenstein. He always begins his treatment by asking his patients what kind of treatment option they are comfortable with, whether it is medication, therapy, an injection or surgery. Once he gets an understanding of a patient’s wish, he devises a personalized treatment plan according to it.
Dr. Schottenstein really stands out with his collaborative and personalized approach. While he has tried pain management in a variety of ways—with assistance, PAs, and nurse practitioners, he found that true healing starts with a direct, face-to-face connection. It helps him quickly figure out the root causes and treat them more accurately.
“It makes everything way more efficient to do it face to face —me and my patient. And actually, I enjoy it a lot more this way as well. So that is personalized care for every single patient.”
As Dr. Schottenstein looks forward, he has nothing but the highest level of patient care in his mind. He strives to continue to provide high-quality patient care to his patients and help them lead a healthy life. “I would love to continue practicing indefinitely. I love it here in New York and I love pain management as a career.’
