A psychological evaluation for a spinal cord stimulator (SCS) is an assessment to evaluate your psychological and emotional readiness for undergoing spinal cord stimulation therapy.

Spinal cord stimulation is a medical procedure in which an implantable device is used to deliver electrical impulses to the spinal cord to manage chronic pain, particularly when other treatments have been ineffective.

Our goal is to optimize your chance of success and ensure that you are psychologically ready and have clear expectations for the physical and emotional challenges associated with surgery and post-operative results.

The psychological evaluation is an important part of your pre-surgical plan to ensure your safety and well-being.

We work collaboratively with your surgeon to ensure you have the support you need.
