Brandon Sutton MD, and Alexander Sinofsky MD have announced the opening of Ohio Valley Pain Institute (OVPI) in the Medical Arts Building on Eastern Parkway in Louisville, Kentucky. The clinic’s aim is to reduce the need for opioids while improving patients' long-term health, function and quality of life in the battle against chronic pain and the opioid crisis.
Ohio Valley Pain Institute offers comprehensive pain management that includes: medical treatments, interventional techniques, as well as coordinating access to surgical specialists, physical therapy, nutritional consults and psychological counseling. Drs. Sutton and Sinofsky first perform a detailed history and physical exam along with using advanced diagnostics, to precisely target the source of pain with a combination of therapies. By implementing an evidence based, multi-modal treatment pain, OVPI aims to minimize patients' dependence on opioids.
In the past, opioids were the default therapy for chronic pain. However, opioids are now attributed to the fastest growing health epidemic in the country. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), more than three out of five drug overdose deaths involve an opioid. In 2016, more than 17,000 of the 63,632 deaths due to drug overdose were attributed to prescription opioids.
Ohio Valley Pain Institute focuses on techniques that help patients avoid the adverse effects of opioids. Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is one of the most promising and rapidly advancing treatments for chronic pain; it is a modality that delivers a low-voltage electrical current continuously to the spinal cord to alter the sensation of pain.
Continued improvements in the technology and understanding of SCS therapy have provided patients with an array of debilitating, chronic pain conditions to improve their lives while helping to minimize the reliance on opioids.
Drs. Sutton and Sinofsky are certified by the American Board of Anesthesiology with sub-specialty certification in Pain Medicine. They are licensed to practice medicine in Kentucky and Indiana.
The founding of Ohio Valley Pain Institute is the culmination of Drs. Sutton and Sinofsky’s expanded vision for the treatment of chronic pain. OVPI aims to offer safer, more effective alternatives and move beyond opioid-based treatments as the primary source of pain relief.
