Patient FAQs

Common questions about pain management

Honest answers about what a pain management doctor does, when to see one, and what to expect at our Katy, TX office.

What does a pain management doctor do?

A pain management doctor diagnoses and treats acute and chronic pain using non-surgical, minimally invasive, evidence-based treatments. Dr. Imran Qureshi is a board-certified interventional spine and sports medicine physician in Katy, TX. He evaluates the root cause of your pain — not just the symptoms — and develops a personalized treatment plan that may include epidural steroid injections, radiofrequency ablation, nerve blocks, PRP therapy, or spinal cord stimulation. The goal is to restore function, improve mobility, and help you return to normal activities without opioids or surgery.

When should I see a pain management doctor in Katy, TX?

Consider scheduling a consultation if your pain has lasted longer than a few weeks, keeps returning, or limits your ability to work, sleep, or move comfortably. Many patients wait too long, assuming the pain will resolve on its own — but untreated pain can become chronic and harder to manage. If you have persistent back pain, neck pain, sciatica, knee pain, or neuropathy, Dr. Qureshi offers targeted, non-surgical treatments that can produce meaningful relief. Same-week appointments are typically available.

What conditions does Dr. Qureshi treat?

Dr. Qureshi treats a wide range of musculoskeletal and nerve-related conditions at his Katy office, including low back pain, neck pain, herniated and bulging discs, sciatica, arthritis, hip pain, knee pain, shoulder injuries, SI joint dysfunction, sports injuries, peripheral neuropathy, chronic headaches, and post-surgical pain. As a back doctor, knee doctor, and sports injury doctor in Katy, his focus is precision diagnosis followed by minimally invasive treatment that avoids unnecessary surgery whenever possible.

What treatments does Dr. Qureshi offer?

Dr. Qureshi offers the full range of interventional pain management treatments, including epidural steroid injections, radiofrequency ablation, nerve blocks, joint injections, trigger point injections, PRP therapy, spinal cord stimulation, kyphoplasty, and discography. All procedures are performed in-office under fluoroscopic or ultrasound guidance for precision and safety. See the full treatments hub for details on each procedure.

Is pain management better than surgery?

In most cases, pain management should be tried before surgery — especially for spine and joint conditions. Minimally invasive treatments like epidural injections, nerve blocks, and radiofrequency ablation can relieve pain and restore function without the risks, recovery time, and permanence of surgery. Research shows that 80–90% of patients with herniated discs improve with nonsurgical treatment. Dr. Qureshi will recommend surgery only when it is truly necessary — after conservative options have been exhausted.

How do I choose the right pain management doctor in Katy?

Look for experience, board certification, and specialization in advanced interventional techniques. Dr. Imran Qureshi, D.O. is board-certified in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation with fellowship training in interventional spine and sports medicine. He performs every procedure himself under image guidance, and his practice focuses exclusively on interventional pain care — not general physical medicine. Read patient experiences in our reviews section or learn more on our about page.

Does Dr. Qureshi help with chronic pain?

Yes — chronic pain management is a core part of Dr. Qureshi's practice. Chronic pain affects mood, mobility, sleep, and quality of life. Dr. Qureshi develops long-term strategies that combine interventional procedures, regenerative therapies (PRP), and, when appropriate, advanced options like spinal cord stimulation. Many patients come to our Katy office after medications and basic therapies have stopped working — we focus on addressing the actual pain generator, not masking symptoms.

Do I need a referral to see Dr. Qureshi?

In most cases, no referral is needed. PPO insurance plans generally allow direct scheduling, while HMO and EPO plans may require a referral from your primary care doctor. We accept most major insurance including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, United Healthcare, Medicare, Humana, Ambetter, and Tricare. Call (281) 982-2144 and our staff will verify your specific benefits and let you know what's required before your first appointment. See our insurance page for details.
