Chronic Pain and the Opioid Crisis

The opioid crisis has reached a fever pitch in the past year – the focus in the public sphere is on addiction, but lurking in the background is chronic pain. Please join us as we bring the related problem of chronic pain into the foreground. Does the chronic pain “industry” set up false hope for people with chronic pain? Is a “cure” for chronic pain within reach, or is it a myth? Which is more profitable, the status quo, or a solution?

Please join us on February 22 at 5PM in the magnificent Cupples House on the Campus of St. Louis University for, “Chronic Pain and the Opioid Crisis: A Discussion with Heidi Miller, MD and Patrice Pye, PhD. ”
