Dr. Brenda Lau, Medical Director of Changepain Clinic, has been selected as a TEDxSurrey 2026 Speaker, joining one of Canada’s most respected TEDx stages on January 24, 2026.
Dr. Lau is a dual-fellowship anesthesiologist, pain specialist, and hypnotherapist with over 25 years of experience helping people heal when medicine alone isn’t enough. As the founder of Changepain Clinic— the country’s largest accredited interdisciplinary pain and rehab clinic — she has led a team that has supported more than 65,000 people toward recovery.
Her dedication to whole-person care is rooted in early life experiences and strengthened by her own health journey navigating cancer, osteoporosis, and menopause. These perspectives have shaped her belief that healing begins with understanding — uniting science, mindset, compassion, and lived experience.
Her selection reflects her lifelong commitment to empowering individuals through awareness and education.

Update – March 10, 2026
Dr. Lau’s TEDxSurrey talk was a great success. Many patients have asked when the video will be available.
TEDx talks must go through a central review and publishing process before release. Because TED processes more than 45,000 talks each year, it may take several months before the official video becomes available.
We will share the link here once it is published.
