The practice is led by Jan Gillespie-Wagner, MD, who was selected as the 2023 Northern Colorado Medical Society Physician of the Year — the society's highest honor. Dr. Gillespie-Wagner is board certified in both anesthesiology and pain management and supports a multidisciplinary team approach to caring for patients with spine pain. She has extensive leadership experience, having served the American Society of Anesthesiologists for 15 years, as past president of the Colorado Society of Anesthesiologists, and on multiple medical society boards. For nursing professionals, particularly nurse practitioners, the practice offers full-time (32–40 hours) or part-time (2–3 days) positions with training provided in what the employer describes as a nurturing setting. The practice uses Epic as its EHR system and operates with no call requirements. Patient testimonials describe the staff as 'a family' that is 'extremely caring toward patients' with 'impeccable' practice efficiency. However, the employer is a small specialty practice, which may mean fewer advancement opportunities and less infrastructure support compared to a large health system.

The organization's mission centers on helping patients choose from the latest treatment options for pain management, treating patients with dignity and respect, and employing a multidisciplinary team approach to patient care. The practice emphasizes a nurturing environment for both patients and staff, with patient testimonials highlighting a family-like culture and high-quality care.
