Hand Surgeon
Carpal tunnel release, lesion removal with skin grafting if necessary, trigger finger release, amputation of finger/toe
Carpal tunnel release is a surgery used to treat and potentially heal the painful condition known as carpal tunnel syndrome. Doctors used to think that carpal tunnel syndrome was caused by an overuse injury or a repetitive motion performed by the wrist or hand, often at work.
John M. Roberts Jr., MD
Ophthalmologist
Cataract surgery, YAG procedure
Cataract surgery is a procedure to remove the lens of your eye and, in most cases, replace it with an artificial lens. Normally, the lens of your eye is clear. A cataract causes the lens to become cloudy, which eventually affects your vision.
A YAG Laser Capsulotomy is a laser procedure where the eye(s) is dilated, giving the doctor a view of the protein buildup behind the implanted lens. The YAG laser clears protein film to restore vision.
John Logan, MD
Urologist
Cystoscopy
Cystoscopy (sis-TOS-kuh-pee) is a procedure that allows your doctor to examine the lining of your bladder and the tube that carries urine out of your body (urethra). A hollow tube (cystoscope) equipped with a lens is inserted into your urethra and slowly advanced into your bladder.

Orthopedic Surgeon
John Ord, MD, FACC
NucMed stress tests. We also do HIDA scans, thyroid scans, and bone scans with NucMed.
A nuclear stress test uses radioactive dye and an imaging machine to create pictures showing the blood flow to your heart. The test measures blood flow while you are at rest and are exerting yourself, showing areas with poor blood flow or damage in your heart.
Lincoln Health now offers Pulmonary Function Testing, or PFT. PFT is a test used to measure how well the lungs work. It measures how much air the lungs can hold and how quickly air is moved into and out of the lungs. It also measures how much oxygen is used and how much carbon dioxide is given off during breathing. A PFT can be used to diagnose a lung disease and to see how well treatment for the disease is working. Also called lung function test and pulmonary function test.

Managing Pain on a personal level.
Holistic Pain Management takes a holistic approach to managing your chronic pain. We are not a “block shop” that simply takes a short meeting, prescribes a medication, and sends you on your way. Instead, we take a multi-faceted approach to treating a wide range of pain types, patient types, and personal goals. At HPM, we make it a priority to build personal relationships, taking additional time to educate you on options and expectations.
They offer cutting- edge opioid alternatives to treat chronic pain conditions. Rather than make patients rely on addictive prescriptions or mask the pain for a short while, they treat the cause. They also offer non-operative spine, operative spine, orthopedic, and radiological services to better serve a wide range of needs.
What you can expect for your first appointment:
For new patients, will set aside one hour for them to share their pain story. We will comprehensively evaluate their cause of pain during that time which allows us to provide an accurate diagnosis and develop a personalized treatment regimen that will best benefit future treatment recommendations.
We will present the patient with education regarding their diagnosis and our plan to reduce pain and improve function. We will then order imaging and personally review those findings; refer patient to physical therapy, massage therapy, chiropractic care, and/or counseling; and prescribe appropriate non-opioid medications and/or order injections when believed to be beneficial. All data is further synthesized for clear communication back to the referral source ensuring all service lines in the patient’s continuum of care are working in unison.
NEXT STEPS
After each patient’s initial consult and implementation or completion of any conservative recommendations or injections, we will review the outcomes of those treatments. We will then determine the next steps and continue ongoing management and support of their chronic pain needs.
CONTINUOUS SUPPORT
Our goal is to improve the patients function and mobility by reducing pain. Chronic pain is a complex disease process that requires long-term management. We value not only the initial approach and interventions implemented to treat their pain, but also the long-term therapeutic relationship built with patients that is necessary to ensure adequate acute and chronic treatment of their ongoing pain management needs.
