At Texas Pain Relief Group, Rather than merely masking pain with ever-increasing amounts of medication, our doctors strive to treat pain-related conditions
Need us after hours? If it’s not a 9-1-1 emergency, you can always get in touch with our physician on-call. Just call the office and we’ll get in touch shortly. There are many Richardson, Texas residents who are suffering from chronic pain in silence. Some avoid treatment because of bad experiences they have had with medical professionals in the past. They have dealt with aloof and sometimes rude
doctors who either deny that they are in pain or are only concerned about prescribing medication. The Texas Pain Relief Group located in Richardson, Texas, is staff by professional, friendly, and caring medical personnel. Many of our doctors are board-certified in interventional pain management. We understand that the pain our patients feel is real. It is hampering their life, and it is taking a toll on them emotionally, mentally, and physically.

If you're suffering from chronic, severe back pain in Dallas-Fort Worth or beyond, call our laser spine specialist, Dr. Phillip Kravetz. A patient writes:
"I have a complicated history. My back has been quite the journey. Dr. Kravetz took the time to understand and study my history. He was very attentive and responsive to all my concerns, AND there were many. I asked many questions and took up a lot of time and at no time did I feel like he was rushing me or annoyed with any question.
"I felt educated about my issues and fully understood my expected result. We were always in the loop with communication from the scheduling department. The nurses were warm, friendly, and attentive.
"I would recommend Dr. Kravetz to anyone needing a competent, educated, knowledgeable, and trustworthy physician to help them with spinal issues. He’s definitely made a difference for me!"

Shout-out to Dr. Phillip Kravetz and the minimally invasive spine group in Texas. Patient Jack M. writes:
“After having surgery, my experience was very easy to get to the point where I could get back to work in (2) weeks. Dr. Kravetz was great. He has a very good bedside manner. He was easy to talk to and very considerate to my concerns. I need to have a second surgery and have "NO" doubts in my decision to have only Dr Kravetz perform the surgery, I would have no one else to consider in his place. The management in the office is by far the best support anyone could ask for !!!!!!!!!”
