I would like to know as well. I was a patient at AZ Pain Specialists from Sep 2015 to Aug 2016 (we moved to Idaho) and the only treatment I got was an endless series of injections and burning my nerve endings which did not help. My doctor was very inconsistent in his approach. Once I actually got relief for 2 months from an injection, and instead of repeating it, he did something else, which did not help. Which office in AZ is actually performing the DRG procedure? And I have a medtronic neuostimulator now which is providing partial relief. Would it have to be removed? We are moving back to AZ and I will have to go back on AHCCCS waiting for my SS Disabiliy. Can you get this treatment if you are on AHCCCS? I was not able to get in to see a neurosurgeon while on AHCCCS.

How many of these have been performed in Arizona? We are arriving for the season October 6. We are in touch with Dr. Lebenow from Rush in Chicago. He has performed 26 since February. We are wondering whether to have this done in Arizona or not. Thanks Linda O’ Brien
