This week festival director Anne Morris speaks with Dr. David Popoli, a Sports Medicine physician at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist specializing in Performing Arts Medicine. Dr. Popoli speaks about his dedication to approaching the work of getting artists safely and sustainably back to their artform by considering artist health in a holistic way, from sports medicine to physical therapy to nutrition and psychology. He shares his tactics for providing patient-driven care by learning the language of dance, music, and other arts, and striving to keep performing arts medicine clinics as safe spaces for artists.

"In Process" is sponsored by Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist's Performing Arts Medicine Clinic: WakeHealth.edu/PerformingArtsMed
