The Pain Medicine fellowship program consists of twelve months of post-graduate training after satisfactory completion of a residency program in Anesthesiology, Neurology, or Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. The fellowship program is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) within the Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care. Pain fellows must obtain satisfactory evaluations in their primary and elective rotations leading to board certification in the Pain Medicine by the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS).

The Division of Pain Medicine at the University of Alabama at Birmingham specializes in the multidisciplinary treatment of patients with acute, chronic, and cancer pain. Our primary goal is providing quality patient care in a setting that utilizes the resources of a large, academic institution. Located in the newly renovated UAB Highlands facility, the Pain Treatment Clinic hosts 6000 patient visits per year, including over 1000 new patient evaluations and approximately 2000 interventional pain procedures each year. Our division works closely in collaboration with the departments of PM&R, Orthopedics, Neurology, Psychiatry, and Palliative Care to provide comprehensive care for our patients.
