Thanks for joining us for part 2 of our discussion on pain with Dylan Gawinski Stern, PT, DPT, PCS. In this second half, Dylan will be going into more depth on AMPS (Amplified Musculoskeletal Pain Syndrome). She will share how her facility evaluates patients to be considered for admission to the AMPS program, what specialties make up the multidisciplinary team, and what treatment looks like for those AMPS patients. Sheila and Sara will share “PT pearls" and how this topic ties into PCS exam prep.
