Dr. Levi Pearson

Dr. Levi Pearson III, MD, MBA, DABA, DABPM, is a U.S. board-certified anesthesiologist and interventional pain specialist with more than 30 years of experience treating complex spine, joint, and nerve conditions.

 Trained at Georgetown University in anesthesiology, critical care, and chronic interventional pain management, he brings an exceptional combination of technical skill, advanced imaging expertise, and regenerative medicine training to the Upper Room Clinic.

A Leading Expert in Orthobiologics for the Spine

Dr. Pearson is one of the only physicians in the Greater Toronto Area—and one of very few in Canada—trained to perform advanced orthobiologic spine procedures, including intradiscal PRP injections using fluoroscopic (live X-ray) guidance. This highly specialized treatment targets degenerative or painful spinal discs and is typically only available in top U.S. regenerative pain centers.

His spine skillset includes:

  • Intradiscal PRP injections (lumbar)
  • Transforaminal epidural steroid or biologic injections
  • Selective nerve root blocks
  • Facet joint & medial branch injections
  • Sacroiliac joint biologic injections
  • Bone augmentation and intraosseous injections
  • Spinal cord stimulator trial lead placement

These procedures allow him to treat discogenic pain, sciatica, facet arthropathy, and chronic low-back pain with regenerative options that help patients avoid surgery.

Comprehensive Ultrasound-Guided Regenerative Care

Beyond the spine, Dr. Pearson performs a complete range of ultrasound-guided orthobiologic procedures for major joints, tendons, ligaments, and peripheral nerves. He treats:

  • Osteoarthritis of the knee, hip, shoulder, ankle, and small joints
  • Rotator cuff tendinopathy and shoulder instability
  • Hip capsule/labral issues and trochanteric bursitis
  • Tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, patellar and quadriceps tendinopathy
  • Plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, Morton’s neuroma
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome, ulnar neuropathy, occipital neuralgia, meralgia paresthetica
  • Peripheral nerve entrapments across the upper and lower limbs

His dual-modality expertise in ultrasound and fluoroscopy allows him to target painful structures with precision that most clinics cannot achieve.

A Thoughtful, Highly Skilled Clinician

Dr. Pearson’s training includes advanced orthobiologic certification courses, extensive CME in regenerative spine medicine, and decades of experience performing interventional procedures in both hospital and outpatient settings. His CV reflects a long history of leadership roles, academic teaching, and specialized training in regenerative and fluoroscopic-guided techniques

Credentials 2025

Patients appreciate his calm, careful approach and the way he explains procedures clearly while providing realistic expectations and personalized care plans.

Bringing Rare Expertise to Toronto

At the Upper Room Clinic, Dr. Pearson offers state-of-the-art regenerative spine and joint treatments that are not available elsewhere in the GTA, giving patients access to world-class orthobiologic care without having to travel abroad. His work bridges advanced medical science with compassionate, individualized treatment—helping patients restore function, mobility, and quality of life
