Dr Skaribas is a nationally known expert in Spinal diagnostics and therapeutics, Spinal Cord Stimulation, Neuromodulation and Interventional Pain Management, for conditions that others struggle to treat. Some of his primary expertise include intractable back/neck/extremity pain as a result of spine surgeries, CRPS1-2, Intractable chronic abdominal and Pelvic pain as well as treatment of debilitating Migraine Headaches.
Spinal Cord
Stimulation
A Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) is a type of implantable neuromodulation device that is used to send electrical signals to select areas of the spinal cord (dorsal columns) for the treatment of certain pain conditions.
(DRG) Spinal
Stimulation
DRG therapy offers a new option for complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). Recently approved by the FDA, DRG treats adults with moderate to severe difficult-to-treat chronic pain caused by CRPS of the lower limbs.
The “OMEGA”
procedure
The “OMEGA” procedure (Trial/Implantation) utilizes Bilateral Supraorbital and Occipital Neurostimulation for treatment of intractable Migraine headaches as well as all severe Primary Holo-cephalic Headaches
Cervical Epidural
Steroid Injections
Cervical Epidural Steroid Injections involve a Fluoroscopically guided Injection of cortisone into the cervical epidural space to provide anti-inflamatory therapeutic effect to irritated spinal nerves of the cervical spine
Lumbar Epidural
Steroid Injections
Lumbar Epidural Steroid Injections (Interlaminar): Injection of a corticosteroid into the lumbar epidural space under fluoroscopic guidance to provide anti-inflammatory therapy to irritated lumbar spinal nerves.
Vertiflex for
Spinal Stenosis
