ABOUT DR. SLAVIN

As a top specialist in pain management, Dr. Slavin at Rio Grande Pain Team strives to fulfill one goal: to help patients find relief from chronic pain.

He uses numerous advanced techniques to quickly relieve and manage neuropathic pain in the back, neck, shoulders, and throughout the body.


In his current capacity, the doctor can also be found on staff at Knapp Medical Center and Doctors Hospital at Renaissance.


Upon graduating with his medical degree from SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University, Dr. Slavin went on to further his education. He completed his internship at Cabrini Medical Center and then returned to SUNY to finish his residency in anesthesiology.


After completing his residency, he worked locum tenens throughout the country for one year, which involved filling in for various physicians as needed, and then relocated to South Texas.
