It’s Not in Your Head’s first guest episode with Dr. Krishnan Chakravarthy, MD, PhD and Founder of the Empower You Chronic Pain Foundation. Get to know Krish, where his desire to increase access to people in low income communities came from, and other challenges we face like stigmas and time limitations in the current system that negatively affects outcomes. What can we do about it?
‘EY’ as we also call it, is like a sister company of It’s Not in Your Head. Krish was also Justine’s original treating doctor for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome and implanted her spinal cord stimulator. It’s been a true privilege and joy to work on this project together, and he is also one of Dan’s best mates! We’ll get into how we all met, our shared mission and how we developed this visions around empowering patients.
We’ll also share about this year's Empower You Conference and how you can be a part of it! Go to www.empoweryoufdn.org to learn more and register for this global event!
