Thank you to Dr. Knab and his staff for improving my quality of life!
After a year of experiencing chronic sciatic nerve pain, my primary physician referred me to Dr. Knab. I was nervous to go to a pain management clinic, but Dr. Knab and his staff were so welcoming and knowledgeable, it put me right at ease. Dr. Knab reviewed treatment options for me, and I chose to have PRP therapy. I am about 8 weeks post procedure, and am very pleased with the results. Thank you to Dr. Knab and his staff for improving my quality of life!

Dr. Knab & Dr. Arora were very helpful and professional and staff are very competent. I highly recommend this practice for pain management.
The Center For Pain Management saved my back. I have dealt with spinal stenosis for five years. Within the last six months had physical therapy treatments that prided some relief followed by visiting a neurological surgeon who prescribed pain meds with no results. Found Dr. Arora and Dr. Knab who do not use pain meds but provided a series of shots at L2,3 and L4,5 and S1 with additional, but limited, help. Both doctors have specialized in anesthesiology with pain management being the best specialty for this discipline. Dr Arora performed the Mild surgical procedure on L2,3 and L4,5 with wonderful pain free results.

I felt relief within a weeks time!
I have suffered from chronic back pain for years. After various treatments we decided that PRP was the next step. I had the procedure on July 12th. It was not painful and I felt relief in a weeks time and it has continued. I am so pleased with Dr. Knab, his staff and the Center for Pain Management. It is great to do things again!

I am surfing again!
We tried PRP, an inexpensive alternative to back surgery. The procedure itself was painless; for me, there was significant post-treatment recovery pain and lack of mobility. As Dr. Knab and his office staff predicted, after physical and light therapy, and a few months of healing, my back pain improved dramatically. The best outcome is that I am surfing again. I didn’t think that would be possible!

Dr. Arora is a very compassionate, caring and dedicated doctor. He truly cares for his patients and goes the extra mile. I have been to other pain doctors. Dr Arora outshines them all. If I could give 10 stars I would.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Arora.
He has been helping me for sometime with the damage to my spine caused by Multiple myeloma. The latest was a procedure called MILD. An out patient procedure that relieved the pressure on my spinal cord. The results were amazing. Significantly eased by pain. Quite remarkable considering that it was quick and pain free procedure. I truly believe that if you are suffering from back pain you should check out this procedure.

Dr. John Knab is not only an expert in interventional pain, but also an expert in all technologies for regenerative medicine.
If you’ve got any kind of pain, Dr. Knab is the best person to give you an honest opinion on what technology is best for you and your situation.
The people of Wilmington, NC should count themselves as some of the luckiest people in America to have such an innovative, resourceful, caring and all around wonderful human being to care for them and their family’s pain.
I’ve not personally been to this clinic but Dr. Knab provided a consult on my future father in law’s knee pain caused by bulging discs in his low back and provided an excellent treatment option.
