Dr George Lee returns to discuss the latest medical news. Expect deep insights delivered with generous humour. In the health setting, pain is a poorly understood concept.

Clinical pharmacist and pain educator Joyce McSwan joins Dr George Lee to look at how we can work towards a more integrated approach to pain management.
