Daniel M. Wik, MD, DC

Pain Management Specialist · Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation · Doctor of Chiropractic

A different kind of pain doctor

Two careers in medicine. One goal: your relief.

Dr. Wik's path to pain medicine is unusual — and it's exactly why patients trust him. He spent ten years as a practicing chiropractor in Colorado before deciding to go to medical school. That decade of hands-on care shaped how he practices to this day: listen first, examine thoroughly, and treat the cause — not just the symptom.

As a physician, he trained in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and built a pain management practice that has served Nebraska and the surrounding states for more than twenty years — at one time across eight offices. Today he sees patients six days a week in Columbus and Grand Island, with a full procedure suite and his own anesthesia capability on site.

He has extensive experience diagnosing and treating a wide range of acute and chronic pain conditions — back and neck pain, neuropathic pain, complex regional pain syndrome, arthritis, and sports-related injuries — using personalized plans that combine image-guided injections, nerve blocks, spinal cord stimulation, and non-opioid pain relief options.

And he treats everyone. Medicaid, workers' compensation, all comers — because every patient deserves care.

Dr. Wik is who turned my life around and gave me the ability to move on and accomplish more things. He will sit with you for an hour if that's what it takes.

The office is clean, the Doctor was professional, thorough and kind. They seemed interested in treating the cause of my pain instead of masking it.

The cost is much less than you would pay most anywhere else — my amount went from $1,582 per injection to around $300.
