Welcome

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Founder and Chairman, Sudhir Diwan, MD, and Vice Chairs Scott Woska, MD, Christopher Gharibo, MD, and Course Directors Steve Aydin, DO, Karina Gritsenko, MD, Andrew Kaufman, MD, Kristen Klein, AGNP-C and the New York and New Jersey Societies of Interventional Pain Physicians (NYSIPP & NJSIPP), we would like to invite you to join us at the New York and New Jersey Pain Medicine Congress 2023: Evolving Advanced Pain Therapies. This year’s meeting is held November 2-5, 2023, at the Hyatt Regency Jersey City, New Jersey.

The NYSIPP & NJSIPP Pain Medicine Symposium was established in 2011 with the primary objectives of educating healthcare professionals to promote the development of safe, high-quality, and cost-effective practice of interventional pain management techniques for the diagnosis and treatment of pain and related disorders and to ensure patient access to these interventions.

Our scientific program will provide cutting-edge information on advanced state-of-the-art pain management techniques, advanced regenerative medicine therapies, advanced neuromodulation therapies and beyond, vertebral augmentation, discography, and intradiscal procedures, radiofrequency, peripheral nerve stimulation, intrathecal therapy, minimally invasive sacroiliac fusion and for lumbar spinal stenosis. This course will offer a full-day hands-on cadaver and ultrasound course, incorporating didactic lectures with hands-on practice for improved technique and patient outcomes for interventional procedures presented by nationally and internationally renowned experts. Additionally, we have focused workshops for residents and fellows, and for nurse practitioners and physician assistants.

Industry Partners and technical exhibits are an important part of our meeting’s success and benefit both the attendees and the companies who choose to participate. We anticipate in excess of 600 clinical providers specializing in pain management, interventional pain management, and neurosurgery to attend, including physicians, mid-level practitioners, fellows, residents, nurses, and pharmacists.

We look forward to seeing you at the 12th Annual of the New York and New Jersey Pain Medicine Congress in November 2023!
