about us
We Know What It's Like to Hurt. That's Part of Why We Do This.
The Pain Center of Jonesboro was built on real training, real experience, and a genuine belief that people dealing with chronic pain deserve more than a shrug and a prescription.
Our Mission
Our job is to figure out where your pain is actually coming from — and then do something about it. That means working with you, your family, your primary care doctor, and any other providers involved in your care to build a plan that makes sense for your situation.
We're not here to manage you. We're here to help you get better.
Our Vision
We want every patient who walks through our doors to leave feeling like someone actually listened, understood what they're dealing with, and gave them a real path forward.
That means staying current on the best available treatments, being straight with people about what to expect, and treating every patient like they matter — because they do.
Our Values
What We Stand For
We dreamed of building something Northeast Arkansas deserved — a fully independent, world-class pain center, right here at home. Not a satellite or a chain. From the ground up, for the people we call our friends and neighbors.
That means the full picture of care, coordinated through one team: interventional procedures, medication management, behavioral health, physical therapy, and the depth of the St. Bernards Medical Center network when your situation calls for more. We listen, we explain, we work alongside your entire care team — because that's what it actually takes to get to the bottom of pain.
This community deserves nothing less. We're proud of what we're building.
We listen first
Before we recommend anything, we want to understand what you're dealing with. What hurts, when it started, what you've already tried, and how it's affecting your daily life.
We explain clearly
You shouldn't need a medical degree to understand your own care. We'll walk you through what's going on and what your options are — in plain English.
We treat the whole picture
Chronic pain doesn't just affect your body. It affects your sleep, your mood, your relationships, and your ability to work. We take all of that seriously.
We keep getting better
Medicine changes. Techniques improve. We stay up to date so our patients have access to the most effective care available.
Our Journey
How we got here
The story of The Pain Center is shaped by years of medical training, thousands of patient interactions, and a continued commitment to thoughtful, comprehensive pain care.
The Training
Dr. Savu's background covers internal medicine, anesthesia, and pain management. That combination matters because pain rarely has just one cause — and treating it well means looking at the full picture.
The Experience
Over the years, our patients have taught us just as much as any textbook. Every case is different. Every person's pain has its own story. We don't forget that.
the personal Part
Dr. Savu has experienced chronic pain firsthand. That's not something we put in a brochure to sound relatable — it's the real reason this practice exists. He knows what it feels like to wonder if it's ever going to get better. That shapes everything about how we care for patients.
The Approach
We work with your entire care team — your primary doctor, therapists, specialists — to make sure everyone is on the same page and your treatment plan actually fits your life.
The Goal
To give you back as much of your life as possible. More comfort. More function. More days where pain isn't the first thing you think about when you wake up.
