Dr. Allan J Sarrat
PAIN & PHYSICAL MEDICINE SPECIALIST
Dr. A.J. Sarrat is a Licensed and Board Certified Acupuncturist. He has many years of real world experience diagnosing and treating patients in several clinical settings, with a specialty in peripheral neuropathy. Aside from his busy private practice, he was the director of the Chronic Pain Acupuncture program in a hospital for 15 years where he was responsible for diagnosing and treating complex pain disorders that had not responded to conventional treatments or surgeries.
He holds Board Certifications by the American Academy of Physical Oriental Medicine and the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.

Since early 2008 until 2015 Dr. Sarrat was working side by side with other doctors who had over 50 years experience treating pain patients with acupuncture and other more modern techniques. These doctors also created the Loma Linda Back Program and had worked at spine centers and other chronic pain and rehab centers since the early 1970′s.
Through this working relationship and years of postgraduate work in Physical Medicine, Orthopedics, Sports Medicine and Pain Management, Dr. Sarrat has condensed decades of real life experience that he is passionate about sharing with his patients and other healthcare providers.
Dr. Sarrat believes that the patient is an integral part of the healing process so often prescribes home exercise programs as part of the overall treatment plan.
