Episode description

A Rational Approach: Who to Image, How to Treat, and More!

Back pain is one of the most common concerns our patients bring to us in the outpatient setting.  It’s a lot more complicated than rest, ice, and NSAIDs!  Fortunately, we have pain expert, strength coach, and academic internist Dr. Austin Baraki (Austin Baraki, MD (@AustinBaraki) / Twitter) to help us develop a comprehensive, patient centered approach to help our patients manage their pain and lead healthier lives. Take control of your patients’ back pain!
