Shahira Khoury MD

Associate Professor, Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, University of California, Irvine College of Medicine

Summary

I specialize in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation ( PMR) .
After many years in a busy multidisciplinary practice in Toronto, Canada I moved to California.
Ever Since joining UCI in 2009, I have been managing non-surgical Orthopedic patients in the Orthopedic Clinic in Orange , the Pain Clinic in Irvine, and UCI Tustin Ortho / PMR Clinic .
I manage all Musculoskeletal conditions ( joints, muscles, tendons , etc..) and Spine disorders ( Cervical & Lumbar radiculopathy , spinal stenosis , degenerative disc disease , facet arthritis & myofascial pain ).
My goal is to enhance patients' performance, by tailoring their treatment plan to optimize their non-surgical management including soft tissue, trigger points and joint injections , structured exercises, coordinating their care with various allied health care professionals and overseeing their progress .
