FOR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS
When a patient needs focused pain or infusion support, the next step should be easy to understand.
EnCare MD accepts referrals for Post-Acute Pain & Recovery, Interventional Pain Management, and Infusion Medicine at our Dallas practice near Oak Cliff and the Bishop Arts District. Physicians, surgeons, hospital discharge teams, care coordinators, and other healthcare professionals can refer patients directly. Patients may also contact EnCare MD themselves when a referral is not required for the service they need.

Our role is to understand the reason for referral, review the information that matters, and help the patient move into the appropriate next phase of care without unnecessary delays or confusion.
Designed for medically stable patients who need focused pain support after surgery or another procedure, hospitalization, emergency treatment, or an acute injury. Care is time-limited and can continue for up to 90 days, although many patients need support for a shorter period.
This pathway can be especially useful when a patient is home and medically stable but still dealing with significant pain, medication questions, limited function, or a difficult transition before the next scheduled follow-up.
Same-day or next-business-day appointments may be available.
Refer patients who need a focused evaluation of spine, joint, nerve, musculoskeletal, or other pain concerns. Care is led by Dr. Nenna Nwazota, who is board-certified in Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine. Her approach is interventional and multimodal, with an emphasis on non-opioid treatment strategies.
The evaluation determines what makes sense next. That may include an image-guided procedure, medication strategy, infusion therapy, additional testing, conservative treatment, or coordination with another clinician.
EnCare MD provides appointment-based outpatient infusion therapy for patients with established treatment plans. Services include selected specialty medications, IV iron, osteoporosis therapies, IV antibiotics, medically indicated hydration, migraine rescue protocols, sickle cell hydration and pain support, and other supported infusion or injection therapies.
Before the first treatment is scheduled, the team reviews the order and any required records, lab results, authorization, or medication-specific information.
A well-documented referral helps EnCare MD understand the clinical question and can reduce unnecessary back-and-forth for both the patient and the referring team. When relevant and available, please include:
Not every referral requires every item. The most useful records are the ones that explain what happened, what has already been tried, and what you would like EnCare MD to evaluate or help manage.
EnCare MD provides focused pain and infusion support while keeping the patient’s broader care connected. Depending on the referral, that can include:
For Post-Acute Pain & Recovery, the surgeon or other treating clinician continues to manage the underlying surgical, medical, or injury-related condition while EnCare MD focuses on pain-related needs during recovery. For Infusion Medicine, the clinician managing the underlying condition generally continues to direct the medication plan while EnCare MD provides and monitors the infusion.
The clearest referral relationships are the ones in which each clinician’s role is understood. EnCare MD is designed to provide focused support without disrupting an established treatment plan. Surgeons continue surgical follow-up. Specialists continue management of the underlying condition. EnCare MD contributes pain-management expertise, short-term recovery support, interventional treatment, or outpatient infusion therapy where appropriate.
If a patient develops a complication, medical instability, or another problem that falls outside the reason for referral, the priority is getting that patient back to the appropriate treating clinician or level of care.
Patients can contact EnCare MD directly for Interventional Pain Management and Post-Acute Pain & Recovery. Insurance requirements, certain procedures, or specific treatments may still require a referral or prior authorization.
Infusion Medicine requires appropriate clinical review and the treatment-specific order, documentation, labs, authorization, or other information needed for the therapy being requested. If a patient is unsure which service fits, EnCare MD can help determine the appropriate next step.
Start by identifying the service that best matches the patient’s current need.
The EnCare MD team can then determine what records or treatment information are needed to review the referral.
Yes, in many cases. The fit depends on why you are seeking care, what treatment is already in place, and what type of additional evaluation or support is being requested.
