Dr. Cyrus Bakhit, M.D., joined National Spine & Pain Centers through a partnership in 2014 after having founded the Pain Management Center of Roanoke (Virginia) in 2000. As an interventional pain management physician, Dr. Bakhit specializes in chronic pain issues including back and joint pain, as well as complex regional pain syndrome.
As a pioneer in the field of pain management, Dr. Bakhit was a founding member of the American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians in 1998. At that time, he worked tirelessly to successfully obtain recognition of pain management as a medical specialty. He continues his leadership today as a lifetime board member and as a board certification examiner for the society, which has grown to more than 3,000 members. The society is credited for promoting the practice of safe, high quality yet cost effective interventional pain management techniques and for ensuring patient access to these interventions.
Prior to founding Pain Management Center of Roanoke, Dr. Bakhit practiced at the Pain Management Center of Paducah (Kentucky) for five years.
While completing his residency in anesthesiology in the early 1990s, he also served as clinical instructor at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, S.C.
Dr. Bakhit feels that his diagnostic skills are aided by his educational background in internal medicine, which focuses on the prevention and treatment of a broad spectrum of illnesses. His patients appreciate the time he takes to fully understand their pain and the individualized treatments they receive. He is known for his patient, compassionate care.
Dr. Bakhit says he finds pain management challenging and rewarding. “Often, by the time patients come to us, others in the medical field have given up on them. It’s our job to provide these patients with interventions that will restore their quality of life,” said Dr. Bakhit.
In 2011, Becker’s ASC Review recognized Dr. Bakhit as one of the top Pain Management Physicians in the country.
Articles by Dr. Bakhit have been published in Pain Physician, a journal of the American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians, and in Pain Digest.

Incredibly good doctor. He’s patient, kind, thoughtful and tells you like it is without “fluff”
Dr Bakit is very knowledgeable and experienced in everything he does makes you feel welcome to me. He is top number one.
I had two injections on my right side of my lower back, I do believe it’s working already. I forgot to stop by the front desk to schedule my follow up appointment.
Great doctor been seeing him for years. Trust him implicitly.
Dr Bakhit is the very best at what he does. He really cares and wants to help people feel better.
He’s one of the best doctors I’ve ever had, he’s very personable. He’s thorough and he’s very nice.
He really takes care of your needs, and easy to talk to,
Office staff always welcoming and helpful. I have noticed that there seems to be a continuing staff change over in the back, though also very welcoming.
I have had chronic pain for over 10 years and Dr Bakitt has been my doctor, he assesses your situation and recommends a treatment plan to decrease your misery. I have a pain pump that I have had success with. This increased the quality of my life ! Now I enjoy doing and going to the best my body can do. My depression is manageable also because my pain is controlled,he doesn’t offer cures, he does offer improvement to your situation .
Great
