Dr. Prasad understands that pain, especially when chronic, is something that no person should have to live with. His extensive experience with pain management and Laser Spine Treatments allows him to offer patients the relief they deserve from suffering. Dr. Prasad Lakshminarasimhiah is double board-certified in Pain Medicine and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation in our Frisco, Texas location. As a physiatrist, he focuses on treating spine conditions as well as pain in the joints, head and extremities. He takes a holistic, evidence-based care approach when tending to his patients. “I make sure the patients take an active role in their treatment,” he says. “I speak in layman’s terms and ask them to repeat the treatment plan back to me to ensure understanding.” After receiving his medical degree from Bangalore University in India, his interest in the field of pain medicine was piqued while doing a clinical rotation in comprehensive pain management at the Wayne State University in Detroit. He was able to witness first-hand the impact of modern technology, cutting-edge research, education, and a multi-disciplinary approach toward pain management. He served in the United States Army, in the capacity of Major, at the San Antonio Military Medical Center in Texas. After receiving training in interventional pain medicine, his interest in this specialty was furthered while caring for injured soldiers. He has also provided care in physical medicine and rehabilitation at several locations throughout the country. Dr. Prasad is passionate about providing patients with a broad spectrum of customized treatment options. His experience and education allow him to provide each patient with a highly effective course of treatment without relying on opioid medication. He is laser-trained, yet uses a variety of noninvasive and interventional pain management modalities, depending on the patient.
