As SolvingPain celebrates its first year, we need to draw attention to our volunteer Action Group. Made up of Ontario anesthesiologists, this group was responsible for researching, summarizing and reviewing the surgical pain management best practices that make up the Perioperative Pain Management Pathway. They also provided us with materials for our Patient Resources section and assisted with testing and reviewing SolvingPain.ca

The Action Group is lead by SolvingPain’s lead physicians, Dr. David Neilipovitz and Dr. Collin Clarke. Their vision for SolvingPain has been crucial in shaping and guiding this project.

SolvingPain volunteers, thank you so much for the hours you have donated to this initiative. SolvingPain could not exist without you!
