Stephen Kareha, DPT
What do you see as the most exciting developments in spine care today?
Improved multidisciplinary care of patients and improving the flow of care to better serve patients.
How do you think the role of technology (AI, robotics, wearables, etc.) will shape the future of spine care?
I believe AI will help by providing reminders to providers to provide evidence-informed care and help reduce delays in care.
How has membership in NASS impacted your career so far?
Being a member of NASS has provided me with the opportunity to get involved in a fantastic multidisciplinary organization that is making a real difference in the lives of patients with spine problems.
If you could leave a one-sentence message for your future colleagues, what would it be?
Take the time to truly listen to your patients, they will tell you almost everything you need to know about their condition.
