St. Luke's Spine & Pain Associates - Whitehall
I am a pain management specialist with board certifications in pain medicine and anesthesiology. I believe that patients should have a comprehensive approach to their treatments, which includes not just diminishing pain, but also restoring function. As a physician, my goal is to improve a patient’s quality of life, but also to avoid doing any harm. Therefore, having open and honest discussions on expectations are important to help patients understand their diagnoses and treatment options.
My goal is to help improve the quality of life of my patients with individualized treatment modalities. I utilize a wide array of interventional procedures and pharmacologic agents to treat various pain conditions. These include but are not limited to chronic neck and back pain, cervical, thoracic and lumbar radiculopathies, sacroiliac joint pain, neuropathic pain, complex regional pain syndrome, myofascial pain, post herpetic neuralgia, post laminectomy syndrome and joint pain.
As an anesthesiologist with additional pain medicine training, I have had extensive experience in fluoroscopic and ultrasound guided procedures and utilize a multimodal, individualized approach to help patients. I believe in multidisciplinary treatment plans with close coordination with physical and occupational therapists, as well as other specialists and primary care physicians.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, working on cars and computers and exercising. I grew up in New Jersey and did my medical training in New York City and Philadelphia. I enjoy visiting those cities from time to time.

“DR. SUN I rate at a 10. He is an excellent doctor. I see him for pain management injections. Important... Many months ago...as far as St.Luke's PROCESS to get an Initial appointment pain management was not easy. When I originally called the number I was given. There was a call back process and intake questions. Then I was told I did not qualify. I had escalated the denial. Then I was called again and was referred to a DPT. The DPT then knew I needed help. He put in a request. Then I finally got to see pain management. Now that I am esestablished with Dr Sun I can contact hiim/pain management directly. But the process was frustrating. I have been in pain for 9 months. I had lumbar spinal fusion 3 months ago. That surgery successfully fixed that part of my problem. However I still have debilitating pain from another area I think is muscular. To be determined.”

“I didn't even need to request a referral to an orthopedic surgeon. Dr. Sun knew I needed the referral after listening to how I was doing after the third epidural and how my leg and foot were getting progressively weaker.”
