Dr. Steve Goodman
"The most important skill of a good pain physician, is the ability to examine the patient, knowing what to look for. Dr Goodman is such a practitioner, having a similar background to myself - rehabilitation medicine and electromyography (EMG). Because of this, he fully understands the principles of pain, especially neuropathic pain. Also important, from the patient’s point of view, he has an excellent pair of hands.

We are grateful and proud that he is a certified lecturer for the Institute for the Study and Treatment of Pain (iSTOP)."

C. Chan Gunn, M.D.

"Dr. Steven Goodman is a knowledgeable and experienced practitioner of the IntraMuscular Stimulation technique for treating chronic myofascial pain. I have worked with him at international medical conferences where he has displayed not only his thorough understanding and skill in this valuable treatment model, but also a warm and empathetic approach to the patient. He is committed to maintaining and improving his skills in teaching the Gunn-IMS technique to his medical colleagues, and is contributing to the ongoing research on evidence-based proof of the effectiveness of this treatment over the other more traditional medication-based or manual techniques.

In addition, Dr. Goodman is recognized by others in the field to be a dedicated and articulate proponent of IMS to the worldwide medical community. His extensive work in Rehabilitation Medicine and electrodiagnostic techniques have placed him in a unique position to assist both patients and practitioners in their understanding of this powerful treatment modality."

John Kent, M.D.

"I have known Steve for many years both professionally and personally. He is only one of 3 IMS instructors in the US. This is a testament to his skill, knowledge and ability. He has proven himself to be one of the top practitioners of this technique and comes with the highest recommendation."
