Dr. Anthony Afong, M.D., is the medical director for the National Pain Institute and brings more than 20 years of experience to his work.
The opportunity to make a difference in the lives of patients by improving their functional mobility and quality of life first drew Dr. Afong to the field of pain management.
He holds a bachelor’s degree in zoology from the University of Florida and a Doctor of Medicine from the University of South Florida College of Medicine. He completed an internship focusing on internal medicine at the University of Utah and a physical medicine and rehabilitation residency at Baylor College of Medicine in Texas.
Dr. Afong worked for five years in the pain management field and then finished an interventional pain management fellowship at the National Pain Institute where he has remained to work for every patient he sees.
He is driven by the opportunity to help patients in pain maximize their functional mobility and quality of life while utilizing minimally invasive procedures and limiting the use and dependence on medication.
When coordinating options, Dr. Afong believes patients “should take an active role in their treatment and care to facilitate and maximize their outcome,” he said.
First visit to Dr Fong. He is very knowledgeable and professional. He explained my condition very thoroughly and the treatment plan fully. There was no wait time and I was taken in 15 minutes before my appointment and left 5 minutes after my appointment time.
I have been a patient here for 6 years. I have spinal issues and routinely have the rhizotomy procedure done here. I also was a pain management patient after breaking both my legs. I find the staff to be intelligent, kind and responsive. I feel the same about Dr. Afong and Kristen. I trust this office to handle me and my body with care. I value having a specialist that I can count on.
Everyone was efficient and nice
Dr a Fong and his staff a very caring and attentive. I've been using him for many many years and will continue to use him and his staff in the future always a positive experience.
Dr Afong is wonderful and so is the staff Stephanie at the front desk is so helpful and all the staff and anesthesiologist in the procedure room are all wonderful
