Congratulations to Dr. Sinead Forde on winning The Gaffney Prize at the School of Medicine (University College, Cork) annual prize giving ceremony. This is the first time that a pain related research topic has won this prestigious prize!
If you are wondering will you be able to access pain management in level 5 lockdown the answer is simple…… Absolutely YES!
At Pain Relief Ireland we understand that you want and need health services to continue to be available as much as possible. We have adapted over the last 5 months very effectively and we are delighted to say we shall be continuing to operate. However, because of the unpredictable nature of COVID-19, we may need to adapt from time to time to continue to protect people from infection risk.
Dr. Hegarty and the team at Pain Relief Ireland would like to wish all our customers a very safe holiday season and a healthy and happy new year!
The clinic will re-open on January 4th 2021.
Pain Relied Ireland is pleased to announce that it has implanted the first Differential Target Multiplexed (DTM™) Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) for back pain on Medtronic devices using the Intellis platform. This is a new and unique programming option available to treat patients with chronic pain that is based on years of preclinical research. We can now offer suitable individuals the benefit of this advanced programming.
2020 will be remembered as the year that the global healthcare system had to deal one of the greatest challenges in living memory. Since the initial outbreak in December 2019 coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become the one of the most rapidly spreading infections in terms of a global pandemic. The sudden onset left even the most efficient healthcare services struggling to cope.
