Dr. Sanjay Gupta: A New Way to Diagnose Pain

Thought Leader: Sanjay Gupta
August 8, 2025

One of the most challenging aspects of treating chronic pain is the fact that there’s no objective way to measure it – no number or test like blood pressure or cholesterol. But soon we might have something more specific than the scale of happy face to sad face. Dr. Sanjay Gupta talks with Dr. Prasad Shirvalkar, a physician and researcher who’s implanting electrodes in patients’ brains to better understand how pain is processed—and how we might one day stop it at the source.

Dr. Sanjay Gupta is a world-renowned neurosurgeon and Emmy Award–winning journalist, known for making complex health and science topics accessible to the public. Whether reporting from war zones, natural disasters, or the front lines of medical breakthroughs, Dr. Gupta brings both expertise and humanity to every story he tells. As CNN’s Chief Medical Correspondent, he has become a trusted voice in American homes—guiding audiences through public health crises, sharing life-saving information, and inspiring healthier, more active lifestyles. Bring his clarity, credibility, and compassion to your next event by booking Dr. Gupta through WWSG.
