Woodstock Pain Solutions Treatment Centers Physician Named Top Doctor by Atlanta Magazine

Dr. Michael K. Schaufele of the Woodstock location of Pain Solutions Treatment Centers (300 ParkBrooke Place, Suite 390) was named to Atlanta magazine’s 2013 list of Top Doctors. The listing is published in the magazine’s July issue.

The Top Doctors listing is compiled annually by Castle Connolly Medical Ltd. — an established healthcare research company based in New York City. Doctors are nominated for consideration through both a nationwide survey and a peer nomination process open to licensed physicians in DeKalb, Fulton, Cobb, Clayton, and Gwinnett counties. Castle Connolly’s physician-led team of researchers then select the Top Doctors through a rigorous screening process that includes an evaluation of educational and professional experience.

Dr. Schaufele said he felt very priviledged to receive this type of recognition. “It’s a true honor to have my work recognized by my medical peers in such a prestigious listing,” he said.

Dr. Schaufele practices at the Pain Solutions Treatment Centers in Cartersville, Marietta, and Woodstock. He is board certified in physical medicine and rehabilitation, as well as pain medicine. He received his medical degree from the University of Frankfurt Medical School in Frankfurt, Germany. He completed his physical medicine and rehabilitation residency at Harvard Medical School, followed by a fellowship in spine care and interventional pain management at the Spine Center Munich Harlaching in Munich, Germany. After his training, Dr. Schaufele joined the Emory Spine Center, where he practiced as an Associate Professor for more than a decade. He joined Pain Solutions Treatment Centers in 2012. This is Dr. Schaufele’s second consecutive Top Doctors honor.
