OM Docs Physician Spotlight. Dr. Raviinder S. Parmar
When an employee is injured on the job, effective pain management is about more than reducing discomfort. Identifying and treating the source of pain is often the key to restoring function and helping injured workers safely return to work. For employers, adjusters, nurse case managers, risk managers, and other workers' compensation professionals, having access to experienced interventional pain physicians can make an important difference throughout the recovery process.
This month, OM Magazine is highlighting Dr. Raviinder S. Parmar, one of the physicians featured in the OM Docs Directory. Dr. Parmar is a board-certified physician in Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine and the founder of Alleviate Pain, where he specializes in diagnosing and treating acute and chronic pain conditions through comprehensive, patient-centered care.
Dr. Parmar's medical training includes board certification in both Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, along with research on degenerative joint disease at the renowned Rothman Institute. Throughout his career, he has focused on helping patients regain function by combining advanced diagnostics, minimally invasive procedures, rehabilitation, and individualized treatment plans. His philosophy centers on treating the underlying cause of pain rather than simply managing symptoms.
His practice commonly treats workplace injuries and conditions such as neck and back pain, herniated discs, sciatica, spinal stenosis, joint injuries, repetitive stress injuries, nerve disorders, arthritis, sprains and strains, and persistent pain following orthopedic injuries or surgery. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment options may include image-guided spinal injections, radiofrequency ablation, spinal cord stimulation, joint injections, medication management, and other interventional pain procedures designed to improve function while supporting recovery.
For workers' compensation professionals, selecting physicians with specialized training in pain management is an important part of coordinating quality care. Workplace injuries often require close communication between the treating physician, employer, adjuster, and nurse case manager. Physicians who provide timely documentation, functional progress updates, and clearly defined treatment plans help support informed claim decisions while keeping the injured worker at the center of care.
Dr. Parmar participates in all major workers' compensation networks and accepts direct employer agreements, making his practice a valuable resource for organizations seeking experienced physicians to care for employees recovering from occupational injuries.
