A Green Bay doctor is headed to his fourth Olympic games, working with Team USA Decathletes.
 
Dr. Curt Draeger has been treating the current Olympic champion and world record holder in the event, Ashton Eaton, since 2012.
 
Decathletes compete in ten events over two days, pushing the human body to its limits.
 
“What I’ve learned with the Olympic athletes, those protocols, I bring back and I help my chronic pain patients with. So I’ve been able to see huge results with my chronic pain just by testing it out on the Olympic athletes," said Dr. Draeger.
 
In addition to treating local chronic pain sufferers, Dr. Draeger treats over a dozen Green Bay Packers players.
