Making Appointments | Clinic Locations
Your First Appointment
New patients to either of our clinics must be referred by a health care provider. The physician's office must call to arrange the first appointment so that information regarding a patient's prior care can be obtained. Copies of all relevant medical records and tests (especially x-rays and MRI's) should be sent prior to the visit or with the patient.
Physician's offices should schedule all initial appointments by calling the pain clinic at their patient’s preferred location:
- Buchanan County Health Center (319) 332-0999
- Jones Regional Medical Center (319) 462-6131
- Mercy Medical Center (319) 398-6636
- UnityPoint Health St. Luke’s Hospital (319) 369-8204
Learn more about what to expect at Your First Visit to one of our clinics.
Additional Visits
Additional visits, if needed, will be scheduled at the clinic as you leave. If you are an established patient, you may call the clinic directly for return visits, for the same pain issue, for up to one year
from your first appointment without obtaining a new referral from your personal physician. If you have
a new/different pain problem, your referring physician must contact the Pain Clinic with a new referral.
LCA Pain Clinic Locations
LCA Pain Clinics can be found within dedicated spaces as a part of St. Luke's Interventional Pain Clinic at St. Luke's Hospital and the Mercy Pain Management Clinic at Mercy Medical Center, both in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
The LCA Pain Clinics at Mercy and St. Luke's are staffed daily by our physicians, nurses, therapists and support staff who are all specially trained in pain management. New patients are generally seen by a physician within a week and can be seen sooner at the request of the referring physician.
Our LCA Pain Clinics use a multidisciplinary approach to healing, which may include referrals to a surgeon, behavioral counselor, wellness coach, physical therapy, massage therapy, stress management or nutritional services, in addition to interventional treatments such as oral medications and injections.
All LCA Pain Clinic physicians see patients and
