Since 2021, New Mexico has lost a significant number of physicians due to some of the highest malpractice insurance rates in the U.S. combined with high taxes and low reimbursement rates.
This weekend, Dr. Raiten met with bipartisan lawmakers to push for real change, change that would help make New Mexico a place where doctors want to work and stay.
Long wait times and delayed care are affecting patients across the state. We are at a pivotal moment for healthcare in New Mexico.
We are proud of Dr. Raiten, the New Mexico Medical Society, and all the physicians and legislators who stepped up to prioritize this issue. While many lawmakers are pushing for change, others are not, which is why continued advocacy is essential.
The fight isn’t over, but we’re committed to seeing it through.

We’re pleased to offer a new procedure now approved by Medicare—the iFuse system—for patients suffering from chronic SI joint pain. This minimally invasive treatment, performed by Dr. Raiten, is intended to provide lasting relief for many individuals who previously struggled to find an effective solution.
The procedure takes approximately 45 minutes, and most patients are able to walk the same day. Recovery is typically quick, with noticeable improvement often reported within just a few days.
Unlike temporary treatments like steroid injections or ablations, iFuse is designed for long-term pain relief.
If chronic SI joint pain has been affecting your daily activities, we encourage you to speak with one of our providers to see if iFuse may be right for you.

We have just been informed that repairs for our clinic are scheduled to begin on Monday. We have not been given a timeline for how long the repairs will take and will update everyone with that information as soon as we hear something. We have done everything within our power to expedite this process. Unfortunately there have been delays within the Insurance claim process that are out of our control.
