Dr. Andrew Vargas uses the same principles he learned at UCSF in caring for patients
with chronic painful conditions. His aim is to define and diagnose the underlying painful
problem and apply interventional techniques to improve pain, function, and quality of life
so his patients can enjoy the good health of their youth as long as possible.

Dr. Vargas specializes in targeted diagnostic injections, cortisone injections, platelet rich
plasma injections, radiofrequency ablations, and neuromodulation techniques.

Every patient’s experience of pain is unique, and Dr. Vargas takes care to consider
underlying medical problems to optimize treatment and outcomes. His practice takes a
limited role in systemic medication management with careful patient selection and a
tailored, multimodal approach aimed at eliminating use of opioid pain medications.
Dr. Vargas’s role is to empower patients to engage in active treatments aimed at
maintaining strength, flexibility, and improving the mind-body connection.

Managing painful diagnoses is a team effort with the primary goal of rehabilitation. His partners in rehabilitation management include chiropractors, acupuncturists, physical therapists, and psychologists trained to engage our body and mind’s natural pathways for limiting the effects of pain.
