Happy Halloween! 🎃 This year’s staff costume lineup included Minions, Pac-Man characters, totally ’80s icons, and our grand finale… Dr. Gilthorpe himself!

The “Dr. G” look came complete with black briefcases, scrub caps, white coats, and — of course — venti mocha frappes. Even Dr. G’s pup, Olive, joined in.

Big thanks to our amazing patients for sharing the Halloween spirit with us; your smiles made the day! (📸: Shared with patient permission.)

He did it again! Dr. Gilthorpe, an anesthesiologist and interventional pain physician, is among this year’s Texas SuperDoctors: Rising Stars Edition 2025, a collection of Texas’ top physicians.
Just 5% of this state’s doctors receive the SuperDoctors designation, but only 2.5% are named on the Rising Stars list. The full roster will be released in Texas Monthly’s July edition - look out for it and congratulate “Dr. G” when you see him!

We offer advanced procedures for chronic and acute pain.
