W.O.W. MD - Your Wellness Optimizing Warrior
Our healthcare system is run and dominated by Big Pharma and for-profit health insurance companies. No one is fighting for you!

I want to fight for you and be your wellness warrior. Join me in creating a community that educates, empowers, and nourishes optimal wellness. Our healthcare system needs a revolution. We need change; we need better and easier access to a healthcare system that promotes wellness and is not fixated on disease and merely alleviating symptoms. Let’s take back our health and own it!

Most women don’t really understand how hormones like estrogen fluctuate during their cycle. If you were to test a woman’s estrogen, the level you would get would vary greatly depending on which part of her cycle she was in. Ovulation marks the peak of estrogen levels during the entire cycle.
At the same time, the level of es...
Why don’t we know more about optimal testosterone levels, especially since it can be so beneficial for women? Part of the problem is that research into women’s health is significantly underfunded. Testosterone is an estrogen antagonist, so it could help with estrogen-dominant conditions like endometriosis. Yet, it isn’t put forth as a possible treatment.
In today’s episode we’re continuing our conversation about testosterone therapy, including its benefits and the importance of monitoring testosterone levels. Understanding the testosterone levels you should strive for and measuring your physiological responses is key to using it beneficially.
Testosterone is the main anaboli...
This episode is for all the women who have left the doctor disappointed—turned away and told their hormone levels were fine even when they didn’t feel right. Hormone level testing isn’t given much thought by the majority of medical professionals, yet it’s crucial to providing adequate patient health.
Right now, there is a co...
We’re welcoming Meghan Morrissette, my aesthetics nurse, again today to bring our conversation about Botox and other types of neurotoxin treatments to a close. We’ll be addressing more common questions in this episode. When is the best time to get Botox? Is there a better age to start?
Patients in their 20s typically seek ne...
We are continuing our conversation about Botox with Meghan, my aesthetics nurse. Is all Botox the same? Actually, they can vary in some ways. If you don’t feel ecstatic about the results a few weeks later, you can experiment with different types of neuromodulators. For example, instead of the Botox brand name you can try Dysport, Daxxify, Xeomin, and more.
This week’s episode is all about Botox as we welcome my aesthetics nurse Meghan Morrissette. As a holistically-minded person, the idea of injecting myself with a toxic chemical just to look better did not appeal to me for many years. However, now that I have a deeper understanding about what Botox can really do, I think it’s worth exploring, which I recently did myself.
Today we’re concluding our conversation about being independently healthy. This time, we’re focusing on preventative care and maintaining your health. Most patients believe their health insurance plan is there to keep them healthy, but this is not true. The medical insurance industry is designed only to cover catastrophically high expenses in serious health situations.
In this episode we’re continuing our conversation about being independently healthy, focusing on covered medical expenses. Medical insurance premiums have skyrocketed—they are extremely expensive, and therefore unaffordable for many people.
If possible, it’s important to prioritize having your deductible on hand in case you ...
Many of us are familiar with the idea of being independently wealthy, but what does it mean to be independently healthy? Health independence is the ability to maintain your physical and mental wellbeing without relying on external support.
If you want to be independently healthy, you need to eat well, exercise often, sleep s...
Today we’re continuing our conversation about cholesterol and debunking the myths around it. In their 50s, approximately 40-50% of men have some degree of coronary artery disease. This risk only increases as age advances. Poor food choices, sedentary lifestyle, and exposure to toxins also increases this risk.
Half of men who...
We all have men in our life that we care about, and it’s important to keep their health at the top of our mind. One factor that can greatly impact men’s health is his cholesterol, however the way cholesterol works is greatly misunderstood. In this episode we’re debunking cholesterol myths and shedding light on what matters when it comes to cholesterol and men’s health.
This month we’re taking a few episodes to explore things to keep top of mind for men’s health. Even if you’re not a man yourself, the men in your life may have some unique needs and health issues you’ll want to know about.
In the United States, heart attacks kill about 325,000 men per year. So, why are men so prone to heart ...
We’re continuing our conversation about insurance coverage today, specifically how it impacts your access to wellness procedures and therapies. All insurance companies are positioned in a particularly advantageous position. People tend to have unrealistic expectations about what they’re being offered, and this usually comes to light when they get denied.
In this episode we’re discussing vitamins and what insurance coverage looks like for them. IV vitamin therapy is beneficial to your health for so many reasons, but some types may be covered and some may not. Additionally, hospitals also have very specific policies and protocols about what they will offer, and typically they do not offer IV vitamin therapy.
Today we’re continuing our discussion about IV vitamin therapy, especially regarding how administering vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, and amino acids through IV can be beneficial for you.
Vitamin C supports a healthy immune system, and injectable forms provide a rapid increase. If you feel exhausted or stressed, whether from...
Let’s dig deeper into IV vitamin therapy. Specifically, we’re exploring how to administer vitamin therapy and going further in depth with the vitamins themselves.
Generally, IV vitamin therapy lasts about 60 minutes, especially if you are getting more than a few vitamins at once. Rushing your infusion is probably not a good ...
Although IV vitamin therapy is far from mainstream, it’s a great alternative therapy for many reasons. There are many hours that doctors and healthcare professionals have to put into self-education about IV vitamin therapy before they can be comfortable offering it.
