Welcome to the Annual AKPC Strategic Summit, Denver 2022. At Arthritis Knee Pain Centers we are in the business of improving our patients’ lives by helping them return to the activities they love, without pain, and without the need for opioids or surgery. The Summit provides an opportunity for us to build unity, learn, plan, and improve.
Our theme this year is Rise Up/Give Back. As key stakeholders, we are fortunate to participate in this great mission. We are charged to Rise Up – to grow & improve the company through continuous quality improvement. We also have a great opportunity to Give Back – to lift and bless the lives of others in the communities we serve.
Join us as we together carry the banner to Rise Up and Give Back!
AKPC’s mission is to provide exceptional, non-surgical, non-opioid, pain-relieving therapy to patients suffering from chronic osteoarthritis of the knee. Every patient is special. Every patient is family. Our standard of care celebrates every patient’s unique needs with empathy, care, and transparency.
Our Standard of Care is Simple; Treat every patient as if he/she is a beloved family member. In every patient engagement, we lead with six guiding principles:
DIGNITY, COMPASSION, RESPONSIVENESS, PERSONALIZATION, PRIVACY, SAFETY
