Drs. Boutwell, Cordner, and Bakshi, as a panel, answer questions on the struggles and rewards of running a private practice. One topic discussed in depth is how to be entrepreneurial (Ex: partnerships with surgery centers) while at the same time providing the best care for the patient. Word of mouth referral and social media is also discussed.

Douglass Beall, MD, discusses managing discogenic back pain without surgery. Traditionally, patients can use physical therapy and chiropractic interventions to help manage back pain. Surgery can be used to help manage it as well; however, it is expensive and only 50% of patients improve after surgical procedures. Non-invasive methods for managing back pain include nerve ablation, and injections with stem cells, hydrogels, or amino acid peptides. The average procedure time for these non-invasive methods is 5.5 minutes, and studies show that there is significant improvement in pain, function, and quality of life.
Dr. Annu Navani discusses the use of regenerative medicine in her practice and the positive results these natural injection have on her patients. An explanation is given on the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells, including how they are safely harvested from the patient’s body. She gives advice to those physicians who are interested in implementing regenerative medicine as a part of their practice. Dr. Navani has also published several articles that supports the effectiveness of this treatment.
Renowned pain expert Dr. Richard Rauck discusses how pain education is changing. He emphasizes the importance of physician training in multiple areas, including neuroradiology and psychiatry, then considers the role of device innovation and drug development in pain management. Dr. Rauck finishes with a discussion of the opioid crisis and the role of physicians in reducing the burden of opioid use in pain management.
Dr. Stogicza describes in great detail, the reemergence of prolotherapy, and why its efficacy is becoming more recognized in treating pain. She describes prolotherapy as “absolutely the opposite of every standard technique.” She explains how it is categorized as regenerative therapy, and gives an example of how prolotherapy is used to treat the root cause of cervicogenic headaches by allowing the body to heal the ligamentous (soft tissue) damage that can refer pain to cause such headaches.
