"The Ascension Wisconsin Center for Pain Management is based in Milwaukee and has outpatient clinics throughout the metropolitan area, which make up parts of Ascension Wisconsin’s Pain Management Clinic. In the middle of an opioid crisis during which providers are reluctant to prescribe opioids, these clinics provide chronic-pain patients with holistic, evidence-based medicine. The Center for Pain Management provides team-based care, which includes an anesthesiologist, a physical medicine and rehabilitation physician, a physician assistant, a clinical pharmacist, and a pain psychologist. Within the various outpatient clinics, treatment with medications and injections is common, and is often paired with physical or behavioral therapy, emphasizing a four-pronged approach to pain management."
