I found this podcast through the Andrew Weil Fellowship alumni website. I was curious about it because of the award mentioned on the website and was drawn to listen because of an acute back pain episode I had recently experienced. It is not easy to find hope for the tool chest, but it did give me hope- an essential tool to reclaim some sense of possibility. I was told I needed to have several vertebrae fused following laminectomy by two surgeons at excellent academic centers in Michigan. Thank you for the interviews with Esther Gotkhale and Dr. McGill. I’ve taken Esther’s classes and I am walking differently, using my body differently at 67 years of age and I am without back pain almost 100%. Thank you for making this information available Dr. S. I have given the book to providers in my area and wonder… why isn’t this information shared with anyone who comes in for an evaluation of back pain?

Excellent podcast with truly helpful information that makes a priority of connecting with listeners. Thank you for making this podcast, it is a godsend!

Always enjoy these podcasts. Very informative and understandable for patients. Thank you for doing these.

I met Dr. Lakhia through our time taking a 2 year Integrative Medicine Fellowship out of the University of Arizona School of Medicine. He is a wealth of knowledge and I continue to learn from him. Love that he is doing this podcast. Latest episode I’ve listened to is with the amazing Dr. David Schechter. Mind body medicine and stress reduction is key in effectively managing chronic and resistant pain. As a periodontal and implant surgeon in Dallas, Tx I manage and treat chronic inflammatory oral conditions including several mucocutaneous diseases, chronic inflammatory periodontal disease, and V3 neuropathies. Keep doing what you’re doing Sanjiv!!

Dr. Lakhia & Dr. Plummer did a great job! They explain the dIfferent types and the sources of back pain and how radio frequency ablation can help patients. Very informative! Thanks for doing this.

What a great podcast! Easily understood by all, very informative and well rounded. I love the whole body/mindfulness aspect as much as the back pain portions

I wish this information and easy to understand explanation of Back pain was available30 years ago. But, not too late. Looking forward to hearing more from you DOC. Thanks

Dr. Lakhia is very knowledgable and informative. He provided great information in an understandable and relatable way. I look foward to future episodes.

Absolutely Amazing! This is the best back advice I’ve ever had.
