Prof Romy Parker and Nishern Govender recently presented a webinar for Pharmacy Magazine on The patient behind the pain, what patients want healthcare professionals to know about their pain experiences. It was made possible by Haleon.

Prof Romy Parker is a Professor and Director of the Pain Management Unit in the Department of Anaesthesia and Perioperative Medicine at the University of Cape Town. She actively researches pain management, supervises postgraduate students, and is the course convenor of Africa's first Postgraduate Diploma in Interdisciplinary Pain Management. Dr. Parker integrates her expertise as a physiotherapy clinician in chronic pain management at Groote Schuur Hospital.

Her research focuses on developing mechanism-based treatments relevant to South Africa. Dr. Parker serves as a Councillor for the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) and has held leadership roles in PainSA and the IASP Pain, Mind and Movement Special Interest Group. She received the UCT Distinguished Teacher's Award in 2019, the university's highest teaching honor. Dr. Parker's goal is to ensure every South African with pain can access knowledgeable healthcare professionals.

Nishern Govender is an experienced clinical pharmacist with a Pharmacy degree from WITS, a Master of Pharmacy, and a Postgraduate diploma in Clinical Pharmacology from UKZN. With over 25 years in the Pharmaceutical and Healthcare sector, he has held various roles in clinical practice, research, and academia.
