Dr. Emil H Annabi, one of Tucson’s leading Pain Management Doctors, has won the 2021 ThreeBestRated® award

Dr. Emil H Annabi, Medical Director of Pima Pain Center, has won the 2021 ThreeBestRated® award for one of the top rated Pain Management Doctors in Tucson, AZ. This marks his fifth win in a row. 

“It is quite an honor to be listed,” says Dr. Annabi, “It is my feeling that even to be recognized as someone who leads community healthcare is quite an honor. It is important because it validates the hard work that is sometimes perceived as unappreciated,” he further adds.

About Dr. Emil H Annabi – Pima Pain Center:

Dr. Annabi received his Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Texas at El Paso and completed his Pain Medicine Fellowship at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Beth Israel Hospital. He held the position of Director of Pain Management for the University of Arizona for seven years before opening his own practice, Pima Pain Center, in 2014.

Dr. Annabi always felt that there was a void in Pain Management in the City of Tucson. “In order to best serve our community, I felt that the best way of serving them would be to develop a truly multi-disciplinary approach to pain which includes, addiction therapy, physical therapy, chiropractic, Imaging, procedures, medications, Sports Medicine, consulting, and much more,” he explains.

Multi-disciplinary approach:

Unlike a typical pain practice, they do not refer patients for testing. They have their own MRI, X-Rays, and other testing and imaging machines.

“We are an all-in-one practice that incorporates everything under one roof,” Dr. Annabi says. “That includes our own physical therapy, massage therapy, eastern medicine with acupuncture. We incorporate chiropractic, addiction medicine, psychiatric services with our own psychiatric providers under one roof. We also have social workers that help with meditation, cognitive behavioral therapy, and Reiki,” he adds.

They are leaders in interventional treatments and evaluate and perform more kyphoplasty than anyone else in the state. “We offer a minimally invasive spinal surgery for other options as well. We believe in nutrition as well as recommending specific nutraceuticals, vitamins, as well as CBD. We basically look at the whole patient and tailor the needs according to their actual problems by looking at them holistically and not just looking at an individual problem,” Dr. Annabi explains.

This multidisciplinary approach has helped them grow to be the one-stop center for pain management in Southern Arizona, with branches in seven locations. They have also introduced new procedures this year. “The newer procedures we do include peripheral stimulation treatments and Vertiflex, which provides patients with a clinically proven, minimally invasive solution to leg and back pain associated with lumbar spinal stenosis,” he explains.

Pima Pain Center has also expanded its office by opening its new eastside office with a separate wing for psychiatric services, including group therapy, meditation, and social work, as well as addiction, and features a 3,000-square-foot wing where patients meet for group therapy.

In addition to winning the ThreeBestRated® award for five years in a row, Dr. Annabi and Pima Pain Center have also won the 2020 Reader Choice award for Best Specialty Physician.
