As a team we are good at adapting, comfortable being uncomfortable, listening, showing empathy, working with advanced digital therapeutics (Virtual reality immersive therapies), creating opportunities, being consistent and genuinely wanting to help the patient be the best version of themselves despite having chronic pain. Apply if these values are congruent with your own. We look forward to hearing from you.
