  • Summary

  • What drives someone to turn a fifth-grade fascination with smoker’s lungs into a pioneering career in pain management? In this jam-packed episode of Bending Over Backwards with James Adkins, Dr. Azmi Nasser joins his partner and longtime friend, Dr. James Adkins, to reflect on his journey, from med school surprises to the latest advancements in spine care.

    Hear about the evolution of ultra-minimally invasive procedures, the fine line between corticosteroid benefits and risks, and why work-life balance isn’t just a buzzword—it’s survival. Along the way, Dr. Nasser shares hilarious and heartfelt moments, like an OR anesthesiologist face-planting mid-surgery and a broken rib that led to a life-saving cancer diagnosis. With candid insights on family, cultural influences, and the importance of humility in medicine, this episode is a masterclass in breaking barriers, finding balance, and staying human through it all.
