He writes that his personal experience overcoming chronic pain and anxiety using mindbody principles pushed him to pursue mindbody treatment practices with his patients. Through this personal experience and from treating patients, Dr. Hanscom writes that he found that “surgery was always less than half of the solution...as chronic pain is a neurological diagnosis and rarely a structural problem surgery is seldom effective. It is my feeling that over half of spine surgeries should never be performed” (Source). Dr. Hanscom notes that although he integrates mindbody principles into his treatment approach, his “practice is limited to surgical referrals from another spine specialist such as a physiatrist or surgeon” (Source) Dr. Hanscom is also the author of the TMS/MBS book Back in Control: A Spine Surgeon’s Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain, published in 2012.

He served as chief of cardiac and thoracic surgery at Garfield Medical Center in Los Angeles and is an Associate in Surgery, Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, at UCLA. Widely published, Dr. Strom is a nationally renowned expert in the fields of healthcare information systems, healthcare change and healthcare quality. While continuing to practice as a cardiovascular surgeon, Strom became deeply involved in the search for a solution to the burgeoning healthcare crisis in America. In 2005 Strom spent time with Dr. John Sarno at the Rusk Institute for Rehabilitative Medicine learning Dr. Sarno's unique approach to chronic pain (Tension Myositis Syndrome). The confluence of Strom's experience in these three crucial areas - traditional clinical medicine, medical acupuncture and TMS - has inspired his distinctive view of healthcare delivery, based on a fusion of the applicable tenets of all three. "We must give patients more responsibility for their own care; and most importantly, we must give both doctors and patients a doctor/patient relationship."
