Meet Arizona’s Trusted Pain Relief Doctor
Dr. Zimmerman D.C.
Dr. Zimmerman has been treating pain for more than 30 years. He spent six successful years in St. Louis working with injured patients who had chronic pain that did not respond to traditional treatments. He developed a positive reputation for taking difficult cases that most other clinics couldn’t solve. For 16 years, he ran one of the most successful practices in Arizona and ultimately became the Chief of Staff of a large health care company with a focus on acute injury care.
Throughout this time he realized that chronic pain was becoming a huge epidemic in America, and, in 2006, he decided to focus on new, drug free treatment technologies for chronic pain sufferers. He understood numbing that pain wasn’t the solution and sought out other methods.
Dr. Zimmerman is certified in physical medicine modalities and therapeutic procedures, is a chiropractic physician and has additional training and extensive experience in the multiple pain relieving technologies utilized at LaserTech. He is proud of the fact that he can help relieve pain when other treatments have failed.

For nearly a decade, I searched for answers. After a car accident that impacted my right shoulder and back, I sought traditional chiropractic care—only to be disappointed when I was released … More from treatment while still experiencing persistent symptoms. I was told the pain would subside over time, but instead, it worsened.Years later, I tried a different chiropractic provider, but once again found only temporary relief. At my wits’ end, I went to my primary care physician. I tried to describe what I was experiencing, but I was quickly brushed off and referred to physical therapy. I ended up wasting hundreds of dollars and countless hours—misdiagnosed, incorrectly treated, and more discouraged than ever. I felt stuck in an endless cycle of pain with no answers.Then I found Dr. Zimmerman at LaserTech Pain and Back Relief Center. Finally—a doctor who not only listened but understood. I had never heard of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS), but Dr. Zimmerman was able to diagnose it immediately. He was also able to pinpoint why none of my past treatments had worked and created a plan that actually targeted the root cause, and for the first time in years, I’m making real progress.Two months ago, I couldn’t even wash the dishes or fold my kids’ laundry without being on the verge of tears. Today, I can throw a ball with my son and pick up my daughter as many times a day as she asks.The care I’ve received at LaserTech has changed my life. Dr. Zimmerman and his entire team are not only experts in their field—they are truly kind, compassionate humans who genuinely care about each and every patient. I will be forever grateful.
As one of the most innovative pain management clinics in the Phoenix Valley, you can look forward to receiving effective, drug free treatments that don’t just mask your painful symptoms, but that attack the root source of the pain, providing you the opportunity to receive significant, long-lasting relief.
How We Help Relieve Chronic Pain
The vast majority of pain is caused by damaged tissue and cartilage degeneration and abnormal physiological functioning. The pain you feel acts as an alarm in that it alerts the brain that something in your body has gone awry and that the root problem needs to be treated in order to reduce pain and improve your symptoms. Most traditional care focuses primarily on silencing this alarm (i.e. pain) and has little to no impact on the actual cause of the pain.
At LaserTech, our team works to find and treat the cause of your pain, not just the symptoms. We treat the 5 common causes of persistent pain, which include: damage, inflammation, nerves, function and the central nervous system. We are confident in our approach and we will work hard to provide you the opportunity for long-lasting relief and the restored quality of life you deserve. And best of all, every treatment we provide is non-invasive – we never use drugs, steroid injections or surgery. While American people are living longer lives on average, most of them are not living their lives to the fullest because they’re constantly weighed down by chronic pain.
Our high level of dedication and effectiveness may be just what you need to get back to the quality life you deserve.
