<description>&lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Summary&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;p&gt;The video covers a conversation between Dr. David Rosenblum and Dr. Hamed Sadeghipour, discussing board preparation experiences and the current state of pain management practice. Dr. Rosenblum begins by announcing upcoming events, including a May 17th ultrasound course in New York City and his lectures at various conferences. He also mentions shadowing opportunities at his office. Dr. Sadeghipour shares his board preparation experience, discussing three main resources he used: Huntoon book (800 questions), Board Vitals (700 questions), and Pain Exam. He achieved notably high scores using these resources. Regarding his current practice, Dr. Sadeghipour describes working both in academic anesthesia (40-50% time) and private pain practice, managing four offices with four nurse practitioners  The discussion then shifts to the changing landscape of pain management, with both doctors noting concerning trends: increasing focus on surgery center procedures over office-based ones due to reimbursement differences, the challenge of maintaining competency in advanced procedures, and competition from non-specialists entering the field. They also discuss the future of the specialty, suggesting it's moving toward becoming a hybrid of neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery with traditional pain management procedures.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;For pain medicine Board Prep go to &lt;a title= "Pain Management Board Prep" href= "https://www.painexam.com"&gt;NRAPpain.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;For ultraound training go to &lt;a title= "Ultrasound Guided Interventional Pain and Regional Anesthesia" href= "https://www.nrappain.org/pages/ultrasound-course-calendar"&gt;NRAP Academy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Highlights&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Introduction and Upcoming Events&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;Dr. Rosenblum introduces the podcast and announces several upcoming events, including an ultrasound course in New York City on May 17th, appearances at ASPN and Pain Week conferences, and opportunities for shadowing at his practice.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Board Preparation Experience Discussion&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;p&gt;Dr. Sadeghipour details his board preparation strategy using three main resources: Huntoon book (800 questions), Board Vitals (700 questions), and Pain Exam(700 questions videos, lectures, ultrasound training, regenerative medicine training and more).
