Rena Courtney Headshot

I founded, currently direct, practice in and conduct research on the PREVAIL Center for Chronic Pain Interdisciplinary Track. We develop individualized treatment plans for chronic pain based on Whole Health with a team of 5 providers (interventional pain, psychology, pharmacy, nutrition, and physical therapy, who meet simultaneously with the Veteran and their support person. My background is in the use of complementary and integrative health modalities to improve quality of life. I am in the process of being certified as a LEAN green belt to further my understanding of how to redesign systems to make them more efficient.
