Paindemic: A Holistic Look at How to Manage Chronic Pain
Author and speaker, Dr. Melissa Cady will provide insight on how our current medical system addresses chronic pain and what needs to change.
Dr. Cady, author of PAINDEMIC ®, is a physician trained in an osteopathic medical school followed by allopathic training in general surgery, internal medicine, anesthesiology, and pain medicine. Dr. Cady is currently board-certified in anesthesiology and fellowship-trained with a board certification in pain medicine. Prior to medical school, she worked as a personal trainer and aided physical therapists. A native Texan, Dr. Cady currently practices anesthesiology in Austin, Texas.
Chronic pain is an issue that is near and dear to Dr. Cady, not just as a physician, but as a patient as well. Her own pain experiences in combination with her diverse medical background has equipped her with a set of skills and invaluable perspective. That knowledge has enabled her to manage her own pain more effectively without the need for medications, injections, or surgery.
Known as the “Challenge Doctor,” Dr. Cady is driven to champion the cause of living the antiPAIN Lifestyle and minimizing the current PAINDEMIC ® that is so rampant today.
