About Rohan Jotwani, M.D., M.B.A.

Rohan Jotwani MD, MBA is a board-certified pain medicine specialist and anesthesiologist, practicing clinically within both fields. He is also an internationally renowned expert and researcher in the field of medical extended reality.


Dr. Jotwani grew up in both Seoul, South Korea and Flushing, Queens. He first became interested in science and technology while attending the renowned Bronx High School of Science, where he began researching cancer genetics at the age of fifteen. This eventually inspired him to complete his undergraduate studies in biology at Columbia University. He then went on to complete both his medical degree and his Master of Business Administration concurrently in four years at Tufts University School of Medicine.


Dr. Jotwani completed his residency in anesthesiology across three hospitals: NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center, Hospital for Special Surgery and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. In March 2020, he was elected to the position of chief resident during the NYC COVID-19 surge, and helped organize and lead a 90+ resident critical care task force across numerous hospitals in the city.


Finally, Dr. Jotwani went on to finish his training by completing a pain medicine fellowship at Harvard Medical School/Brigham and Women's Hospital. There he worked with pioneers to learn advanced forms of pain management and minimally invasive treatments including injection therapies, vertebral augmentation/spacers, novel stimulation based therapies, and intrathecal pump therapy. Further, his training with world experts in palliative care, neurology, headache medicine, sports medicine, psychiatry, pediatrics and oncology allows him to provide a truly multidisciplinary approach to each person's unique journey with chronic pain.


Beyond his clinical practice, Dr. Jotwani actively researches the intersection of pain management and technology, particularly exploring virtual reality applications for chronic pain treatment and medical education. He also serves as the Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Medical Extended Reality. Dr. Jotwani research has been funded by Bodyswaps/Meta, the ACGME, and the Nanette Laitman foundation. His expertise has been featured in major news outlets such as CNBC, The Boston Globe and The New York Times, and he has published extensively in peer-reviewed journals.
