I was just wondering if anyone has matched into pain med from family med since they've opened up the fellowship to us?

Kudos to you.

I'm happy to refer my 600 MME/day patients that I inherited to pain specialists any day. I get depressed when I see my schedule full of "chronic opioid use," "chronic lower back pain."

Most of the pain medicine folks in my area are interventional only, and won't prescribe opioids.
