Dr. Justin R. Scruggs
Overview
My decision to pursue a career in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation began in medical school. I was attracted to the specialty because of its focus on return to function and management of pain. My current position allows me to treat patients with these goals in mind. I focus on the non-operative management of spine and other musculoskeletal conditions. My aim is to utilize conservative measures in order to decrease pain, enhance and restore functional ability and improve quality of life. I perform procedures including cervical and lumbar epidural steroid injections, facet joint injections, medial branch radiofrequency neurotomy, sacroiliac joint injections and other large joint injections. I am also specialty-trained in performing electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCS).

Kernodle Clinic Mebane
I truly love the practice of medicine and strive to do my best for my patients. I take a team-based approach and work with my patients to find the best treatment plans and individualize care based on realistic desired goals. My purpose is to help you become a more functional and physically better version of yourself by minimizing pain and discomfort when possible. This is done through epidural, facet, sacroiliac, and joint injections as well as blocks, rhizotomies, and overseeing physical and occupational therapy among others. In my spare time, I love to spend time with my husband and three wild and crazy boys. Back in the day, I was an avid soccer player and enjoy the outdoors. My husband and I are also big foodies.
