Tommy Rhee

Dr. Tommy Rhee is a Navy Aircrew veteran, former UCLA Sports Chiropractor, and former Team Chiropractor for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He is the founder and CEO of RheeGen®, a company focused on the future of topical regenerative medicine and biological signaling.

With nearly two decades of experience working with athletes, injury recovery, rehabilitation, and performance optimization, Dr. Rhee has become known for combining sports medicine, biomechanics, recovery technology, and regenerative science into a unique perspective on healing. He was also one of the first practitioners to introduce multiple advanced recovery technologies to the Tampa Bay area, including Whole Body Cryotherapy, Shockwave Therapy, EWOT, and other performance-based therapies.

Dr. Rhee is the author of The Future of Regenerative Medicine and a TEDx speaker whose message centers around a powerful concept: the future of medicine is shifting from force to signaling. A major focus of his work is redefining pain itself — not simply as a symptom to suppress, but as a biological signal communicating tissue stress, dysfunction, inflammation, and the body’s attempt to heal. He challenges the traditional “mask the pain” approach and explores how future therapies may support the body’s signaling pathways rather than simply silencing discomfort.

As a podcast guest, Dr. Rhee brings high-energy conversations around regenerative medicine, sports performance, longevity, chronic pain, biohacking, injury recovery, entrepreneurship, innovation, and the future of healthcare. He combines real-world clinical experience with visionary thinking, making complex scientific concepts understandable, practical, and engaging for audiences of all backgrounds.
