Get to know Pain Management Specialist Dr. Gabriele P. Jasper, who serves patients in Brick, New Jersey. 

A specialist in the field of interventional pain management, Dr. Jasper is the Founder of Jasper Spine Institute in Brick, New Jersey. He offers a unique educated perspective to each and every patient when he evaluates their pain, helping them return to a higher quality of life.

Jasper Spine Institute is a nationally known leader in providing interventional pain management solutions to patients that suffer from painful back and neck conditions such as: herniated or bulging disc, spinal stenosis, pinched nerve or sciatica, discogenic back pain, and chronic axial back pain with spasms. The goal is to alleviate the need for spine surgery or spinal fusion by using minimally invasive procedures. These procedures relieve pain, have short recovery time, and return patients to work and their lives sooner than traditional spine surgery. 

Born into a medical family, Dr. Jasper’s father is the noted physician, Philip Jasper, M.D., who has been practicing urology for over 50 years. His siblings (sister Josephine Jasper, M.D., brother Theodore F. Jasper, M.D., and sister-in-law Tiziana P. Jasper, M.D.) are all practicing physicians. His mother also went to medical school but decided to forfeit her profession as a medical doctor in order to raise her family.

Fluent in Italian, the versatile Dr. Jasper began his extensive medical training at the Scientific Undergraduate School Of Malpighi in Bologna, Italy. He then attended medical school at the prestigious Università’ Degli Studi Di Bologna (The University of Bologna). After formally returning to the United States, he completed a preliminary residency program in general surgery and trauma surgery at Monmouth and Jersey Shore Medical Centers (South Central New Jersey’s Level One Trauma Center), respectively. He then broadened his medical perspective by completing a residency program in clinical anesthesia at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey in Newark.

During his residency in clinical anesthesia, Dr. Jasper developed a high degree of interest in two highly specialized fields. His love of children drew him toward the difficult and precise science of pediatric anesthesia and his capacity for compassion created an interest to treat patients experiencing debilitating chronic pain. 

After attaining his board certification in anesthesia and entering private practice, he vigorously pursued both of these areas of interest within his specialty. While at Community Medical Center in Toms River, New Jersey, as an attending anesthesiologist, he was chosen to handle the more complex pediatric cases along with a normal adult patient caseload. Because of his residency in general and trauma surgery, he also served as the first assistant in general surgery on an emergent basis.

Having been interested in pain medicine since his first year of residency in anesthesia in 1993, Dr. Jasper decided to expand his practice in 1996. His subsequent involvement with the Center for Pain Management at Community Medical Center led to his total dedication to the science of pain medicine.

He founded the Center for Pain Control in 2002. Based on word from satisfied patients and extensive M.D. referrals, his practice expanded to two state-of-the-art facilities and the Jasper Ambulatory Surgical Center.

Among his professional affiliations, Dr. Jasper is a member of the American Medical Association, the North American Spine Society, the American Academy of Pain Medicine, the New Jersey Society for Interventional Pain Physicians, the New Jersey Medical Society, the Ocean/Monmouth Medical Society, the American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians, the American Society of Regional Anesthesia & Pain Medicine, the Florida Medical Association, and the Neurological Injury Compensation Association.

Pain management is a branch of medicine employing an interdisciplinary approach for easing the suffering and improving the quality of life of those living with chronic pain. A pain management specialist is a doctor who specializes in pain medicine, focusing on the evaluation, treatment, and prevention of pain.

In 2015, Dr. Jasper became the recipient of the 2015 Parviz Kambin award in recognition and honor of his outstanding scientific and educational dedication to Transforaminal Surgery.

He is now known as New Jersey’s leading pain physician due to his widespread reputation in the medical community here and abroad. This status was established by the various presentations of advanced minimally invasive procedures he has perfected and taught to fellow physicians. He has been trained and has, in return, trained physicians in the Orient, Europe, Hawaii, and across the United States on minimally invasive endoscopic (arthroscopic) spinal surgery.
