In this episode, Meg talks with Dr. Burak Ozgur, Medical Director of the Hoag Spine Institute and a nationally recognized neurosurgeon, about what pain really means — and why it doesn’t always signal damage. Dr. Ozgur explains how modern spine care blends conservative therapies, diagnostics, rehabilitation, and minimally invasive surgical options, and why surgery should be a thoughtful tool rather than a default. They discuss building trust in patient care, making confident decisions about spine treatment, and what it looks like when a physician prioritizes transparency, compassion, and patient‑centered planning. Dr. Ozgur is double board‑certified, widely published, and known for his leadership in restorative spine surgery, helping patients move better, hurt less, and return to the lives they love.
