Pain care a straight ride from El Barrio
We don’t have an office in East Harlem. Our Midtown Manhattan office, Precision Care Spine & Pain Center, is a direct trip down Lexington Avenue, and many of our Midtown patients make it. Yuri Gordin, MD, evaluates back, neck and joint pain, nerve pain and injuries from work or a car accident, and treats them without surgery whenever possible.
Your first visit is an evaluation: your history, a hands-on exam and a review of any imaging you bring. A procedure is offered only when the evaluation supports it, and the office explains the preparation before anything is scheduled.
Se habla español. Spanish-speaking staff are available at the Midtown Manhattan office.
