Pain and sports medicine

Virtual pain and spine consults

Telehealth is available through Westport Pain & Performance. If you are looking for help with spine, joint, or sports-related pain, contact the practice to ask whether an available virtual visit fits your needs. Our team will confirm the service, clinician, location requirements, and next steps before scheduling.

Start with the right visit

Tell the team the general reason for your inquiry. We will confirm the available appointment options and whether you need an in-person visit. Please do not send medical records or detailed health information through the general inquiry form.

The Westport, Connecticut office is planned to open July 1, 2027. Telehealth is available now; specific services and clinician availability are confirmed before scheduling.

Virtual visits and in-person care

A video visit does not replace every physical examination. Injections and other procedures require an in-person setting. You can read about physical therapy, medial branch blocks, epidural steroid injections, and PRP on our educational pages; an individual visit is needed to discuss whether a treatment is appropriate.

Clinician licensure

Adam Nessim, MD is licensed in New York, Connecticut, and Florida. Fernando Martinez, MD is licensed in New York and Connecticut. A clinician’s license does not establish that every service is available in every state. The team will confirm who is available to see you based on your location and the service requested.

How to inquire

Contact the practice to ask about an available visit. Before scheduling, confirm the clinician, visit format, fees or insurance arrangements, and any preparation needed. See virtual care for general information.

Common questions

Can I discuss back pain in a virtual visit?

Contact the practice to confirm whether a currently offered telehealth service is appropriate for your concern. Some problems require an in-person examination.

Do I need to be in Connecticut?

Eligibility depends on where you are physically located during the visit and the license of the clinician who will see you. Our team confirms both before scheduling.

Which telehealth services are available?

Ask the practice about current services and clinician availability. The virtual care page explains how to make an inquiry.

Does insurance cover a virtual visit?

Ask about fees and insurance before scheduling. Coverage depends on your plan and the specific service; no coverage is guaranteed on this page.

When will the Westport office open?

The Westport office is planned to open July 1, 2027. In-person services and scheduling will be confirmed as opening plans are finalized.
