Good Doctor/Clinic/Pain Management in Maine?

thissell · 09-11-2003, 05:10 PM

Hi, I just discovered this bulletin board. My father was injured in a swimming accident in January. After rehab, he moved to Maine to be closer to some of his family and friends. He is living near Blue Hill. However, he has not yet found any good resources in the area. Does anyone have any suggestions? He has not gotten internet access yet, so I'm trying to do some legwork (fingerwork, I guess)... Thanks

Where did he have his rehab? This would be the first place to start your search. I would also contact Spaulding Rehab in Boston (in case this is not where he did his rehab already) to see if they can provide a referral. This is a highly specialized area of SCI care, and you are unlikely to find a specialist in rural areas or small towns or cities.

You might also want to post an inquiry on the Pain forum on this site.
