General Practitioners

Osteoporosis
Arthritis
Because your spine connects to your whole body, either directly or through nerves, back pain can sometimes happen along with other forms of chronic pain. For example, if you have arthritis, you may have joint pain in your spine as well as your hips, knees, and other areas.
Fibromyalgia
Acute neck pain — pain that lasts less than six months — usually happens with accidents. Chronic neck pain — lasting more than six months and persisting long term — is more likely related to disease or age-related issues.
Medical Weight Loss
Primary Care
If your insurance is an HMO/managed care plan and you are required to obtain a referral from your primary care physician, the referral must be obtained before you can be seen for an office visit. Please coordinate this with your primary care physician in advance. Appointments will be rescheduled if required referrals are not received in the office by the time of your visit.
Smoking Cessation
Improving your general health can make a significant difference to chronic pain, and a key part of your pain management program is assessing lifestyle factors such as diet, exercise, stress levels, and smoking cessation.
Emergency Care
If you develop a severe headache, fever, dizziness, or nausea/vomiting within 7 days after the procedure or new severe back or leg pain or leg numbness, please let Dr. Frazier know immediately. If unable to reach him you should call the physician that referred you to Dr. Frazier or present to your nearest emergency room for evaluation.

Endometriosis
Pelvic Pain
The team at Tarpon Interventional Pain & Spine Care specializes in treating neuromusculoskeletal pain and chronic pelvic pain, and create a treatment plan that’s individualized for each patient.

Cervical Cancer
In some cases, pelvic pain can be a symptom of uterine or cervical cancer. It’s essential to get an accurate diagnosis to ensure you receive the appropriate treatment.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can help ease pain and inflammation, or you may need corticosteroid injections. In some cases, surgery provides the best solution. For example, a carpal tunnel release operation severs the carpal ligament in your hand to provide more room for the median nerve.
Multiple Sclerosis
A lumbar puncture can help diagnose serious infections, such as meningitis; other disorders of the central nervous system, such as Guillain-Barre syndrome and multiple sclerosis; or cancers of the brain or spinal cord and appropriateness for certain medications.

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care

Ultrasound
Dr. Frazier, Jr. injects these substances directly into the area where you need repair and pain relief, using ultrasound guidance for optimal positioning.
MRI
The team begins your initial consultation with a comprehensive evaluation and physical exam. Then they complete electrodiagnostic tests to determine the exact cause of your pain. Post-surgical imaging may be needed as well, including X-rays or an MRI, to see how your back has healed after surgery.
Radiology
In addition to her work at Tarpon Interventional Pain & Spine Care, Amy has been published by The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care. She also presented at the American Society of Spine Radiology in Seattle, Washington. She has received the Award for Service Excellence by the Baylor Health Care System several years in a row. Outside the office, she maintains interest in the medical field and continually educates in the area of pain management with a special focus on chronic pain.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
The team also provides referrals to a local imaging center for MRIs and CT scans whenever necessary. Since most diagnostic testing options are available on-site, the team can diagnose your condition faster than sending you to a hospital for testing and begin your treatment sooner.
Radiation Therapy
These types of triggers can injure blood vessels or nerves in the area and change the types of signals your nerves send to your brain. This causes an increase in pain sensation and leads to abnormal brain responses, such as decreased blood flow to the injured area so your skin appears blue or feels cold.

Orthopedics
Spinal care is a branch of orthopedics that requires advanced training for the diagnosis and treatment of spine-related conditions. The doctors at Tarpon Interventional Pain & Spine Care are all specialists in spinal care and offer advanced electrodiagnostic medicine and interventional spine procedures in the office so that you can receive an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment for your condition.
Sciatica
Spinal care for herniated discs, pinched nerves, sciatica, spinal stenosis, and other spine-related conditions is available at Tarpon Interventional Pain & Spine Care. The team uses the highest-quality electrodiagnostic testing and interventional spine procedures available to relieve pain and improve your quality of life. As spinal pain specialists, the team offers comprehensive and personalized care at their three locations in West Plano and North Plano, Texas. For expert spinal care, schedule an appointment online or by phone today.
Whiplash
Pinched Nerve
A pinched nerve can cause intense pain and may affect your strength and range of movement. The team at Tarpon Interventional Pain & Spine Care, with offices in West Plano and North Plano, Texas, can identify the affected nerve using state-of-the-art diagnostics and provide a selection of treatment options for relieving pressure on the nerve and restoring full function to the affected area. Schedule an appointment online or by phone today to learn more.
Laparoscopy
Blood and urine tests can identify any diseases that might be causing your pelvic pain, or you may need to have a laparoscopy or hysteroscopy, where your doctor uses a miniaturized camera on a flexible tube to look directly at your pelvic organs.

Physical Therapy
Treatment for cervical disc herniations depends on the size of your disc herniation and your symptoms. In some cases, physical therapy or traction can provide relief. For moderate to severe cases, the team also offers...
Tennis Elbow
Slipped Disc
Discs are made of a tough outer ring with a gel-like center (nucleus). A herniated, ruptured, or slipped disc happens when part of the nucleus pushes out through a tear in the outer disc. This may irritate nearby nerves, causing pain, numbness, or weakness in your arm or leg.
