Dr. Sibel Demir-Deviren is a physiatrist, a specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation. She treats a wide range of conditions – from sore shoulders to spinal cord injuries – with the goal of restoring function. Her expertise includes musculoskeletal disorders, acute and chronic pain, interventional therapy for the spine, joint and soft tissue injections, and peripheral nerve blocks.

In her research, Demir-Deviren assesses outcomes for patients who receive interventional spinal therapy. She is also interested in studying mechanisms involved in injury of intervertebral discs (the cushioning structures in between the vertebrae) and opioid-induced hyperalgesia (heightened response to pain).

Demir-Deviren completed postdoctoral research in orthopedic surgery at UCSF, examining outcomes in patients with scoliosis, other spinal disorders, rheumatoid arthritis and Parkinson's disease.

    I feel as though the provider would come in and tell me what needs to be done or what can't be done and leave. Its hard to ask questions

    Dr. Deviren, as usual, was direct and to the point. She stated her recommendations for treatment and then asked me for any questions and answered them in an unhurried concerned manner. She did not rush our time together although I'm sure she had a very busy morning of appointments. She also apologized for the wait. I have great confidence in Dr. Deviren's skill and great trust in her judgment. I am fortunate she is my treater.
