A native of India, Dr. Grewal completed his undergraduate education at Punjab University in Punjab in 1977. He was later accepted into the prestigious Patiala Government Medical College in Patiala. With a strong desire to further his medical education, Dr. Grewal soon relocated to the United States and completed his residency program at the University of Toledo Medical Center in Toledo, Ohio.
After finishing his residency, Dr. Grewal completed interventional pain management, spinal surgery, and spinal injection fellowships to prepare himself for challenges he would ultimately face as a leading pain management specialist. He continues to further his education whenever possible to provide his patients with the most exceptional pain management care.

Jeffrey Glaser, MD, is a double board-certified interventional pain management physician and the founder of Glaser Pain Relief Center, serving the communities of Encino, California, the San Fernando Valley, and the Greater Los Angeles Area.
Dr. Glaser earned his medical degree at the Sidney Kimmel Medical College in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He completed his internship in internal medicine and his residency in anesthesiology at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA). Dr. Glaser is board-certified by the American Board of Pain Medicine and the American Board of Anesthesiology.
Dr. Glaser specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders that cause pain, with a large focus on spine mediated pain (i.e., back pain, neck pain, and sciatica) due to conditions such as herniated/bulging discs, arthritis of the spine, spondylolisthesis, spinal stenosis, and failed back surgery syndrome. Some other conditions he treats include (but are not limited to) migraines, peripheral neuropathy, and complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS).
The initial diagnosis and workup of the condition causing pain are crucial to developing a comprehensive treatment plan. Dr. Glaser’s treatment plans are usually multi-modal and may include minimally invasive procedures, medication management, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications. He may incorporate controlled substances such as Percocet and Norco into a short-term treatment plan, but rarely encourages or prescribes long-term, around-the-clock opioids for non-cancer pain.
Dr. Glaser is a member of the American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians, American Society of Anesthesiologists, American Academy of Pain Medicine, American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, American Medical Association, California Society of Anesthesiologists, California Medical Association, and the Los Angeles County Medical Association.

Dr. Glaser has successfully diagnosed and treated thousands of patients. He finds it very rewarding to meet a person who is in pain and has limitations in lifestyle due to the issue, then be able to properly diagnose and treat them, resulting in reduced pain and improved quality of life.
“I broke my back on July 17, 2025, and was referred to Dr. Glaser. I had my appointment with him on Tuesday, August 5. Dr. Glaser himself was attentive, professional, and gave me hope that I was finally on the right path to healing.
Unfortunately, that sense of hope quickly faded due to the lack of follow-up from his office. I was assured during the visit that my prescriptions would be called into the pharmacy — but that never happened. I called the office on Wednesday, August 6, and was told they would follow up with Dr. Glaser, who was out until Monday. No one got back to me. I called again Thursday, only to be told once more that he wouldn’t be available until next week.
Meanwhile, I’m in excruciating pain. I cannot take narcotics, so I rely on alternative medication for relief — but I’m being left to suffer while waiting for someone to simply follow through. It feels like no one at the office cares, and that’s deeply disheartening — especially from a practice known for being “compassionate.””
