The Institute for Florida Pain Specialists is a Florida-based medical practice focused on pain management, rehabilitation, and improving patients’ quality of life. With locations in Jacksonville, North Jacksonville, Orange Park, and Tampa, the practice serves people with chronic pain and related health needs through a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach. Its services include interventional pain management, using radiographic and ultrasound guidance for procedures, as well as orthopedic rehabilitation and care for traumatic brain injury (TBI).

The practice also offers guidance on nutrition and weight-related factors that may affect pain, and medical marijuana services for patients who may be appropriate candidates. Care may include both surgical and nonsurgical options, with attention to movement, body mechanics, and the wider health conditions that can contribute to pain. The Institute emphasizes communication among patients, clinicians, and support networks, and describes its approach as addressing underlying problems rather than simply masking symptoms.

Its physician, Dr. von Tobel, is identified as board-certified in interventional pain management, brain injury medicine, headache medicine, and physical medicine and rehabilitation, with additional sports medicine fellowship training and a master’s degree in nutrition. The practice accepts many major regional health plans
