Wasser Pain Management Centre

Part of the mission of the Wasser Pain Management Centre is to develop an effective and productive clinical research unit with a focus in chronic non-cancer pain management. The team is made up of recognized leaders in pain management, nationally, and internationally.

The following is a list of some of the recent papers published by members of our team.
