LEONARD RIGGS, M.D.
President of Pain Drink, Inc. - Dallas, TX
Dr. Leonard Riggs is a former US Navy and Marine Corps Flight Surgeon and Emergency Physician turned Chief of Emergency Medicine at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas, Texas. He is the founder and former CEO of EmCare, Inc. which helps manage and operate hospital emergency departments across the country.
In his 45 years of experience, he recognized that patients suffered from a wide range of pain and were seeking natural remedies, but had nothing to turn to for relief but over-the-counter and prescription medications - both of which have harmful long-term effects. All this changed in 2015 when Dr. Riggs met Dallas-based pain management specialist doctors, Andrew Konen, MD and Brian Flanagan, MD. The duo had developed a safe and effective natural pain relief drink powder, free of the damaging side effects of OTC medications. Dr. Riggs was happy to join their mission and bring to market the world’s first natural pain relief powder solution: Dr. Riggs’ Rhelief.
