Back pain is one of the most common — and most frustrating — issues people face. But what if the real problem isn’t where the pain is? On this episode of Bad to the Bones Podcast, Dr. Joseph Zerbo breaks down how to truly get to the root cause of back pain.

In this conversation, we explore:

  • Why starting with the patient’s story is the key to proper diagnosis
  • The truth about MRIs and why they may not always be the first step
  • How collaborative care at POA helps patients get faster, better care
  • Conservative vs. interventional vs. surgical treatment options
  • The emotional toll of back pain & how a team approach makes a difference
  • New advancements in spine care that are improving patient outcomes
  • How neck pain can come from the shoulder, and back pain can come from the hips

If you're living with back pain or caring for someone who is, this episode is packed with expert advice, hope, and a pathway toward better outcomes.
