Description: My guest this week is Dr. Stephen L Barrett, CEO, US Neuropathy Centers. In this episode, Dr. Barrett and I discuss neuropathy- what is peripheral neuropathy, who it affects, why you need an accurate diagnosis, what are the common symptoms, why phantom pain phenomenon occurs, and most importantly, how a comprehensive care approach with novel treatments can alleviate pain and improve peripheral neuropathy. As a podiatrist and surgeon, Dr. Barrett shares his expertise in lower body and heel pain (plantar fasciitis) treatment, why diabetes has a strong connection to neuropathy, along with how to help patient compliance.
