Welcome to the Thorek Memorial Hospital in Chicago, your trusted comprehensive pain management program.
We offer the full range of available clinical services, from consultations and second opinions, to complex approaches for acute and chronic back and joint pain (including nerve ablations and spinal cord stimulator placements). The Thorek Memorial Hospital pain team are experts in treating pain, but alway listens carefully to you first, understanding you and your goals.
Our pain management program is led by Dr. Kenneth Candido, a nationally recognized pain expert and professor at the University of Illinois. Thorek's pain program partners are committed to providing exceptional care and work closely with you to develop the best treatment plan for you. At Thorek, on-site radiology, orthopedics, neurosciences, physical therapy and other aligned programs work together for you - reducing your pain is our sole objective.
We know that when you are in pain, scheduling an appointment is your priority. If your pain is acute, we will do our best to schedule an appointment within forty-eight hours if possible. If not, we will schedule you as soon as we have an opening, and call you if there is an earlier cancellation.
Recognizing the serious nature of pain, the pain center accepts all insurances, including Medicare and Medicaid. Multiple languages are spoken by pain center staff, and Dr. Candido is fluent in Spanish and Italian. Parking is free for pain center patients at Thorek.
