Now Seeing Patients in Southaven
Memphis, Tenn. (August 5, 2020) - Mays & Schnapp Neurospine and Pain is bringing its unique approach to pain management to Mississippi. The medical office, located in East Memphis, has added a second location in Southaven and is open and treating patients.
“We have seen our practice grow over the past couple of years from two physicians to seven providers, which now includes three physicians, four physician assistants, a nurse practitioner, and a staff of over 50,” said Eric Schnapp, CEO, Mays & Schnapp Neurospine and Pain. “We decided to open an office closer to our patients living in and around North Mississippi so they can have easier access to our multidisciplinary treatment philosophy. Our Mississippi clinic will also help us to expand our reach and enable us to treat patients from across North Mississippi.”
Mays & Schnapp has been successfully helping patients with chronic pain for over 25 years. With the clinic’s growth and the addition of a second location, Schnapp says this is the perfect time to update the practice’s look and name. “Mays & Schnapp Neurospine and Pain reflects the comprehensive care we provide and our successful treatment philosophy that focuses on a multidisciplinary strategy.”
Mays & Schnapp’s multidisciplinary treatment philosophy involves treating chronic pain with several therapies that work together to provide the most effective pain relief. Each patient is different, so each treatment plan is individualized with the therapy or therapies that will work best for that patient. A medical plan can include a combination of advanced interventional treatments, physical therapy, and other therapies.
Ryan McGaughey, MD, an interventional pain specialist with Mays & Schnapp, is looking forward to bringing the practice’s patient-focused, specialized care closer to Southaven and north Mississippi patients.
“I am excited to be working in Southaven and serving residents living in and around the community to help relieve any pain they may be experiencing,” said Dr. McGaughey. “One of our strengths is the time we spend with our patients focusing on identifying what is causing their pain. Once we target what is triggering their pain, we can create an effective treatment plan.”
Nurse practitioner Gerrie Walters will also be working at Mays & Schnapp’s Southaven office.
“Chronic pain often affects every aspect of a person’s life,” said Walters. “If I can help to alleviate that continual pain, if I can help to bring comfort and relief to patients who hurt—then I am fulfilled. Allowing people to continue participating in the activities that bring them joy and happiness is why I do this. I am blessed every single day and I really think my patients help me just as much or more than I am able to help them.”
