Vrajesh Mehta, MD

As an interventional pain physician, my mission is to improve patients’ quality of life with evidence-based pain management techniques such as neuromodulation, minimally invasive surgeries and ultrasound/fluoroscopic-guided injections, while helping them avoid addictive medications and possible surgery.

I consider myself a highly motivated, hardworking and compassionate interventional pain physician committed to providing excellent care and helping patients treat their chronic pain through various modalities including interventional techniques and medical management.

I am dedicated to providing excellent care and maintaining the highest of standards in pain medicine. I am a graduate of St. George’s University School of Medicine, and I completed my fellowship at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School.
