We were thrilled to have Dr. Alan Gruning join us for the sixth episode of The Patina Podcast, Around the Table with Visaggio & Co.
Dr. Gruning is the President and Medical Director of the International Center for Health and Wellness in Fort Myers, Florida and the Founder, Executive and Medical Director, of both Christian Medical Ministries, Inc and the Southwest Florida Free Pain Clinic.
In this episode we talked about the history of the Southwest Florida Free Pain Clinic as it arose from a dream to a vibrant organization with a full treatment team. Dr. Gruning shared challenges that he has faced as a doctor who specializes in functional medicine. He talks about how he was able to lead a team of fifty people at his church to begin building an organization that provides free treatment for people suffering with pain
Dr. Gruning talks about the challenges he's faced and how his faith inspires him to continue to fight to treat the root cause of his patients' suffering instead of just treating the symptoms.
This episode is not only timely due to the ongoing national opioid epidemic, but deeply personal. Dr. Gruning encourages everyone to follow their dreams even as he retells a deeply moving story about a person nearly completely confined to a wheelchair that was treated and eventually became able to walk again. Her recovery enabled her to live her life and follow her own dreams, goals, and passions, but it also opened up more opportunities for Dr. Grunig to serve as a healing physician for her family!
Tune in. You won't want to miss it!
