General Information
The Washington Pain Center is designed specifically for the care of patients in pain. We understand the physical and emotional toll pain can cause in both the patient as well as the patient's family. With this in mind, we will always schedule appointments within 24 to 48 hours of phone calls. We also pride ourselves on our “personal touch”. Our telephones are always answered by our professional office staff; answering machines are only used during the lunch break.
In keeping with the personal touch and the aspect of concierge medicine, patients at the Washington Pain Center never see a physician's assistant or nurse practitioner. They are only seen by a physician, Dr. John Dombrowski. At the end of a consultation and/or procedure, every patient is given Dr. Dombrowski’s cell phone number should there be any questions or concerns. This personal touch adds to the success of the Washington Pain Center.
The Washington Pain Center also provides care in a multidisciplinary manner. Appropriate patients are referred to physical medicine rehabilitation, neurologist, physical therapist or internist for appropriate medical management. This team approach is individually tailored so that the patient has access to the best possible care for his specific needs. The Washington Pain Center does not have any financial interest in referrals.
Office hours:
Our office hours are Monday 9 am - 12 PM, Tuesday 12 PM - 4:00 PM, Wednesday 9 am - 12 PM and on Friday 12 PM - 4:00 PM. In addition, our doctors are available on call 24 hours a day to address your emergency needs.
We pride ourselves on seeing each patient on time. We ask that our patients help us maintain our schedules by being prompt for each visit. $75.00 will be billed to a patient if they do not cancel the appointment within 24 hours of an appointment. This fee is to insure that appointments are kept, so that we can provide services to those patients in need.
