About me

Dr. Sdrulla is a board certified anesthesiologist and pain medicine specialist. He is a dedicated physician-scientist using basic science research and state-of-the-art technology to combat chronic pain.

He specializes in the treatment of patients with complex, persistent pain in the spine, cancer pain, neuropathic pain (e.g. complex regional pain syndrome), shingles pain (post herpetic neuralgia) and post-surgical pain. He has advanced training in performing implantations of spinal cord stimulators for the treatment of unrelenting pain. Dr. Sdrulla strongly believes in the multidisciplinary, comprehensive approach to chronic pain championed here at Oregon Health & Science University.

When not working, Dr. Sdrulla spends time with his family, including his wife who is a nurse practitioner, and his three children. When he does get some free time to himself, he enjoys reading, jogging, playing tennis, and fly fishing.

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network. 

Visit our billing and insurance page for more information.

  9. Dr Sdrulla is amazing and as a high medical user I have had a lot of doctors to compare him to. He has a calm confident manner which is very soothing.

I appreciate his care.

  11. Dr. Sdrulla and Dr. Audry are exceptional physicians. I feel very fortunate to have doctors like both of them caring for me. Very much appreciate their expertise.

  12. Dr. Sdrulla is brilliant plus he's very caring & explains things so well. This combination of skills is quite a feat! OHSU Is extremely lucky to have someone like him.

  17. Dr. Sdrulla was amazing, has great knowledge and made me feel human. I have a debilitating undiagnosed nerve problem and he gave me recommendations that I've never been given yet. He gave me hope. I don't know what my future holds but because of him I could likely receive more answers, and help with my severe pain. Thank you
