Procedures

Hospital-Based Procedures

When an interventional procedure is part of your treatment plan, we work at accredited hospitals across Queensland — alongside specialist anaesthetists to ensure your safety and comfort.

What to Expect

Interventional procedures — such as nerve blocks, spinal injections and radiofrequency ablation — can be an effective part of a comprehensive pain management plan for some patients. However, they are always one component of a broader, multidisciplinary approach.

When a procedure is recommended, you will be cared for by our pain specialist working alongside an experienced anaesthetist. This team approach ensures the highest standards of safety, monitoring and comfort throughout your procedure.

Before any procedure, your pain specialist will explain the benefits, risks and alternatives in plain language, and answer any questions you may have. Informed consent is always obtained before proceeding.

Most procedures are performed as day procedures, meaning you can go home the same day. You will receive clear instructions about what to expect during your recovery and when to follow up with your specialist.

Important to Know

  • •Procedures are always part of a broader management plan — not a standalone solution.
  • •You will be working with both a pain specialist and an anaesthetist during your procedure.
  • •A referral from your GP or specialist is required before any procedure can be arranged.
  • •Private health insurance may cover some or all of the hospital costs. Please check with your insurer.
  • •Medicare rebates may apply. Our team can provide a fee estimate prior to your procedure.
