St. Margaret’s welcomes Dr. Tello to new pain clinic

SPRING VALLEY — Dr. Vincent Tello has joined Anesthesia Associates of St. Margaret’s Valley Pain Clinic. He will hold office hours in Spring Valley on Tuesdays.

After completing his undergraduate work at the University of Oklahoma, Tello received his medical degree from University of Texas at Dallas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, in 2006. Tello then completed residencies at both Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, and John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County, Chicago. Specializing in anesthesiology and pain management, he is also fellowship-trained at John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County, completing his fellowship in July 2012.

Valley Pain Clinic will see patients on Tuesdays and Fridays, and some of the treatments offered include epidural injections, kyphoplasty, neural therapy injections, radiofrequency neurolysis and selectively placed nerve and joint injections. Anesthesia Associates’ goal is to help the patient control their pain, rather than allowing the pain to control the patient’s life.

Valley Pain Clinic is located in Suite A in the Hazel Marie Boyle Medical Building on the St. Margaret’s Hospital campus. They can be reached at 815-664-PAIN (7246).
