The expanded access comes as chronic pain continues to affect a substantial share of the U.S. adult population. According to the National Center for Health Statistics, 24.3% of U.S. adults experienced chronic pain in 2023, while 8.5% experienced high-impact chronic pain that frequently limited life or work activities. Weekend availability can make it easier for patients to arrange an evaluation around work and other weekday commitments.
Weekend telehealth appointments allow patients to discuss their symptoms, medical history, previous care, and other relevant factors with a provider before an individual treatment plan is considered. The clinic offers pain evaluations for people experiencing concerns such as low back pain, sciatica, neck and shoulder pain, knee pain, arthritis, neuropathy, sports and work injuries, and pain following accidents.
First Response Doctors Clinic lists several in-office treatment options within its pain management program, including steroid and trigger-point injections, physical therapy, acupuncture, laser pain management, and StemWave therapy, a non-invasive shockwave option. Monitored, guideline-based medication management is also available when clinically appropriate. Treatment plans are set only after clinical evaluation.
The clinic's pain management program is led by Dr. Lum Maximuangu, Dr. PH, DNP BC-ACNP, and follows an individualized, patient-centered approach to care. Its providers combine evidence-based care with open communication to develop treatment plans tailored to each patient’s individual health needs.
First Response Doctors Clinic works with Maryland Medicaid, Medicare, Aetna, CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, Cigna, and UnitedHealthcare. Coverage and individual costs may vary. New patients can complete the clinic's two-minute online intake or call 240-604-2949 to request an appointment. Patients should consult a licensed healthcare provider about their individual situation and whether a particular evaluation or treatment option is appropriate for them.
