ABOUT KIRAN V. PATEL

I didn’t become an interventional pain specialist just to treat pain — I became one to restore movement, rebuild identity, and return purpose to people who’ve been told “just live with it.”As Director of Pain Medicine at Lenox Hill Hospital and Founder of NYC Neuromodulation Center of Excellence, I help patients reclaim their lives through evidence-based, layered therapy — with a focus on function, longevity, and quality of life. My approach is shaped by years of clinical innovation and my own roots as an athlete.With 14+ years of experience, I’ve:Performed thousands of interventional spine and neuromodulation proceduresTrained nationally and internationally on neuromodulation and interventional pain solutionsPartnered with innovative medical technology companies to ensure devices translate into real-world resultsBeyond the clinic, I mentor fellows, consult with medtech, and develop protocols focused on outcomes that matter to patients. My 5-step vetting framework is used to evaluate therapies based on physiology, data, skills, and sustained outcomes.Key areas of passion:Athlete recovery — from PGA hopefuls to lifelong moversLow back longevity — via regenerative rehab and strength activationRedefining KOL — from influencer to implementation strategistCreating protocols that scale trust, not just treatmentI collaborate with:Medtech brands seeking clinical alignmentProviders building precision care pathwaysOrganizations moving from awareness to adoption
