Three Chicago-area pain centers to close
Chicago Tribune, January 15, 2009
The Center for Fibromyalgia, Fatigue and Chronic Pain said it would close its three Chicago area locations, citing the economic downturn and a dip in payments from insurance companies. The closure of the center means 500 patients will have to find alternatives for care, said Michael McNett, MD, a family physician who ran the clinics.
