Clinical Trials
Boomerang Healthcare physicians consider research an extension of treating the patient. Research continually reveals new ways to manage pain. Our doctors have studied various therapies for pain management, and participated in research studies exploring the use of new devices for spinal cord stimulation to alleviate pain. This sets us apart in the field of pain management; few practices in the United States are doing investigational device studies.
We are also pleased to share several of our doctors have worked in spine research using stem cells, a therapy showing promise in treating spinal diseases and symptoms of pain. Recognized around the globe as thought leaders in the field of pain management, BHC physicians are heavily invested in teaching a new generation of pain management student doctors, consulting for therapeutic companies and act as keynote speakers and presenters at industry conferences and lecture series.
Research is key to our doctors staying ahead of medical advancements. Check back often for an updated list of active and upcoming studies.
