Specialist Assesment

The first part of the PainSense comprehensive treatment process starts with clinical assessment with Dr Mark Hamlin, or associate specialist. In order to obtain a full history about you we may ask you to complete a questionnaire prior to the appointment. The information you provide about your pain helps the specialist determine more about the potential cause and therefore the treatment options.

The consultation involves us learning about your past medical history, the current problem, and social-psychological aspects relating to your health.

An examination will be performed as part of the assessment. This is a specific physical examination relating to the musculoskeletal system to assess for signs of a pain source. This pain generator may be related to a recent injury, degenerative process or inflammatory condition.
