BayCare Clinic Pain & Rehab is pleased to welcome Dr. Kotomi Obayashi, interventional pain specialist to the group. Through a patient-centered approach, she is dedicated to helping individuals navigate their pain and improve their quality of life so they can return to the activities that matter most to them.
Dr. Obayashi earned her medical degree from Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine before completing her internship and residency at the University of Missouri. She then went to complete a fellowship in Pain Medicine at the Medical College of Wisconsin.
"I was drawn to pain management because it allows me to build meaningful relationships with patients while providing education, discussing individualized treatment plans, and offering interventional procedures when appropriate." Dr. Obayashi said.
Dr. Obayashi works closely with patients to develop treatment plans that align with their needs, goals, and values, helping them feel informed, empowered, and actively involved in their care. When she is nor caring for patients, Dr. Obayashi enjoys baking, hiking, gardening, and spending time with her husband and their cat.
