Dr. Mohammad Abbas
Pain Specialist
My professional journey began in Syria, where I graduated from the esteemed Damascus
University Faculty of Medicine. I completed a residency in Diagnostic Radiology before making
the life-changing decision to move to the United States in 2011 to further my medical education.
At the University of New Mexico (UNM), I served as a Postdoctoral Fellow, contributing to
groundbreaking cancer and neuroscience research. Following this, I completed a pre-residency
fellowship in Neurocritical Care within the Neurosurgery Department at UNM.
2018 I pursued a Neurology Residency at UNM, which I successfully completed in 2021. To
enhance my expertise in chronic pain management, I undertook an Interventional Pain Medicine
Fellowship at UNM's Anesthesia Program. Upon completing my fellowship, I relocated with my
family to Florida, where I now practice as an Interventional Pain Physician with Florida Pain
Care. We provide advanced, evidence-based pain treatments using both interventional and non-
interventional methods to improve patients' quality of life.
Outside of medicine, my family is my greatest source of joy. I love spending time with my wife
and children, whether camping, swimming, traveling, or enjoying family movie nights on Fridays.
Grilling Syrian kebabs for my family is a tradition I hold dear. These personal experiences shape
my approach to patient care, as I understand the importance of family and one's health and
well-being.
My decision to pursue a career in medicine was fueled by a passion for serving the community
with the same compassion and care I would give to my own family. My goal is to help patients
eliminate chronic pain and enjoy life with their loved ones. To support this mission, I aim to
create an Interventional Pain Clinic that will serve as a center for advancing healthcare
knowledge and providing cutting-edge treatments to both patients and the medical community.
In the future, I also aspire to contribute to medical education and research, inspiring the next
generation of healthcare professionals while continually advancing the field of pain
management.
