Pijn.com provides reliable information on the diagnosis and treatment of chronic pain. Complaints such as scar tissue pain, herniated discs or neuropathic pain are discussed. 

The University Pain Centre Maastricht (UPCM), led by Dr. Sommer of the Maastricht UMC +, has received of the World Institute of Pain (WIP) the highest possible award, known as the Excellence in Pain Practice Award for Comprehensive Multidisciplinary Pain Practice. There are only a few other pain centres worldwide that have received this award. In particular the multidisciplinary approach of the University Maastricht Pain Centre is praised by the WIP.
