In 2014, Governor Bill Haslam’s office commissioned the Tennessee Department of Health to gather a select group of physicians from across the state to create the Tennessee Chronic Pain Guidelines.
The mission of the Chronic Pain Guidelines Panel members was to develop guidelines that would define appropriate treatment of chronic pain.
Pain Consultants of East Tennessee pain physician James Choo, MD and pain psychologist Ted Jones, PhD were named to the Guidelines Panel, which consisted of 20 members. Dr. Choo was the only pain physician named to the panel from Knox County. Pictured to the right are recognition plaques that were presented to Dr. Choo and Dr. Jones.
The Tennessee Chronic Pain Guidelines are now complete and can be downloaded in PDF format by clicking here.
Pain Consultants of East Tennessee is honored to have been represented in this selective group of practitioners.
