Dr. Tim Tollestrup Featured in Synapse for Expert Insights on Pelvic Pain

🎉 Congratulations to Dr. Tim Tollestrup on His Feature in Synapse

We’re excited to share that Dr. Tim Tollestrup was recently featured in Synapse, an online publication for professionals in nerve surgery and neuromuscular innovation.

In the article, Synapse spotlights Dr. Tollestrup’s key role in the first-ever Instructional Course on Pelvic Pain. This course debuted at the 2025 ASPN Annual Meeting in Hawaii. It brought together leading experts from across the globe. Their goal? To tackle one of the most complex and often misunderstood issues in peripheral nerve surgery—pelvic pain.

As part of the panel, Dr. Tollestrup shared his expertise on nerve-related causes of sciatica and pelvic pain, with a special focus on piriformis syndrome. This condition is frequently confused with L5/S1 radiculopathy, leading to misdiagnosis and, unfortunately, ineffective treatments.

To clear up the confusion, Dr. Tollestrup explained how to tell the difference using patient history, physical exams, and imaging. He made it clear, step-by-step.

He also presented his refined surgical technique for fully removing the piriformis muscle. Backed by powerful visuals taken during surgery, this method offers real hope. Especially for patients who haven’t found relief from gynecologic or spine-related procedures.

This recognition in Synapse is more than just a feature. It highlights Dr. Tollestrup’s deep commitment to innovation, education, and excellence in peripheral nerve surgery.

👏 Please join us in celebrating this milestone—and in raising awareness about nerve-related pelvic pain.
