Our Williamsburg location, at 16 Sumner Place, offers evaluation and drug-free treatment for chronic back, nerve, and joint pain, with most patients able to be seen faster than a typical hospital-based specialty clinic.
What conditions do you treat at the Williamsburg location?
Our Williamsburg clinic evaluates and treats a wide range of chronic pain conditions, including:
- Lower back pain
- Sciatica, including patterns like lumbar spinal stenosis
- Knee and leg pain
- Neck pain
- Nerve pain and neuropathy
Treatment starts with a physical evaluation to identify the actual condition driving your symptoms, rather than a generic, one-size-fits-all plan.
What drug-free treatment technology is available?
Depending on your evaluation, your plan may include shockwave therapy, EMTT (Extracorporeal Magnetotransduction Therapy), Class IV laser therapy, or guided physical therapy. These are non-surgical, drug-free technologies that may be considered as part of a broader treatment plan for appropriate candidates, not a guaranteed fix for every condition. Your provider will explain what’s realistic for your specific diagnosis before you start.
What insurance plans do you accept at this location?
We accept Medicaid, Medicaid managed care plans, Healthfirst, Fidelis Care, MetroPlus, and Medicare. If your plan is not listed, contact us and we will check. We verify your coverage before your visit so you know where you stand ahead of time.
Where is the Williamsburg location, and how do I get there?
Our Williamsburg clinic is located at 16 Sumner Place, Brooklyn, NY 11206. You can reach the office directly at (347) 395-4008 to ask questions or schedule. If Williamsburg isn’t the most convenient location for you, we also serve patients in Flatbush, the Five Towns, and Monsey. For neck pain specifically, see neck pain treatment in the Five Towns.
What should I expect at my first visit to the Williamsburg office?
Your first visit centers on a thorough evaluation, not a rushed appointment. Expect a detailed conversation about your symptom history, what has and has not helped so far, and a physical exam focused on the area causing you trouble. If you have prior imaging, records, or a list of treatments you have already tried, bringing that information helps your provider build a more complete picture from the start. By the end of the visit, you should understand what is likely driving your pain and what your realistic treatment options look like.
How is your approach different from a typical urgent care visit for pain?
We focus specifically on pain conditions, which means more time spent on your specific diagnosis and a broader set of non-surgical treatment options than a general urgent care or primary care visit typically covers. For patients dealing with pain that hasn’t resolved with a quick fix, that dedicated focus often makes the difference in actually identifying what’s driving the problem.
Do I need a referral to be seen?
It depends on your specific insurance plan. Some plans require a referral from a primary care provider before seeing a specialist, and others do not. Contact us and we will tell you exactly what your plan requires before you schedule.
Frequently asked questions
What does non-surgical pain treatment actually involve?
It covers a range of approaches aimed at the source of pain rather than the sensation alone. That can include targeted manual and exercise-based work, technology-assisted treatment such as shockwave, EMTT or laser therapy, and in some cases injections. Which combination applies depends on what the evaluation identifies as the driver.
Are technology-based treatments like shockwave usually covered by insurance?
Coverage varies considerably by plan and by the specific treatment code, and some modalities are covered more consistently than others. Because the answer sits with the individual policy rather than the category, benefits are best verified against the plan before treatment begins rather than assumed.
Is a written summary of symptoms useful at a first appointment?
It helps. Writing down when the pain started, what makes it better or worse, how it behaves across a day and which activities it now prevents captures detail that is easy to lose in conversation. It also makes change easier to judge at follow-up visits.
Is parking available near the Williamsburg office?
Contact our office directly for current parking and transit guidance specific to the Sumner Place location.
What questions are worth asking if physical therapy did not work?
Useful ones include what the therapy was targeting, whether the working diagnosis was ever tested, whether nerve involvement was assessed, and whether progress was measured against anything specific. The answers tend to reveal whether the approach was wrong or simply incomplete.
