About our Guest: 

Dr. Fanestil is Board Certified in Internal Medicine, and has practiced as both a primary care internist and as a hospitalist in Colorado for most of his career. For several years he was the Director of Inpatient Care at Avista Hospital in Louisville, working exclusively in hospitals and ICUs. In 2017 he began researching and learning about new theories in neuroscience – largely supported by functional MRI (fMRI) data – that are beginning to explain the emotional connections between mind and body. When he started bringing these new ideas to his primary care patients, many of his most complicated and frustrated patients started getting better. He now runs the Boulder Institute for Mind Body Medicine, where he teaches patients and clinicians how to use these tools to re-wire the neural circuitry of anxiety and chronic pain in individual appointments and online classes.
