In this episode of The Stellar Success Podcast with Dr. Tudor Francu, we sit down with Dr. David Rothwell, a seasoned physician and healthcare entrepreneur, to discuss a groundbreaking approach to health insurance and patient care. With over 25 years of medical experience, Dr. Rothwell has witnessed firsthand the challenges within our current healthcare system.
