Christopher Springmann is an award-winning healthcare and lifestyle medicine correspondent and online content creator for On The Path Productions and the Portland Business Journal.

His experience of being “on the other side of the knife” for the first time gave him an empathetic, often humorous storytelling perspective as a stage-1 colon cancer survivor.  His program, “Colorectal Cancer Prevention,” starring actor Terrance Howard (“Empire”), won a first place media award, Internet division, from the American Society of Colon & Rectal Surgeons.

Springmann hosted and produced Life Love & Health and Body Language, daily and weekly wellness programs that reached millions daily on RadioMD, Sirius XM, the Voice of America, and American Forces Network. Prior to a broadcast career, Springmann worked as a freelance photographer and writer for National Geographic, Smithsonian, and Chief Executive magazines.
