Barrington, Illinois. June 24, 2020 — The Illinois Pain Institute and the Barrington Pain & Spine Institute are excited to announce that they are offering elective procedures once again. Both ambulatory surgery centers have implemented screening and CDC-mandated safety guidelines to protect patients against exposure to COVID-19 while providing much-needed relief. These measures allow patients to undergo any of the procedures, including vertebroplasties, discographies, and facet blocks. With each procedure, patients can rest assured that the staff has taken every measure possible to protect against the coronavirus, infections, and other complications.
