DISCLAIMER:
This podcast isnt meant to be a replacement for a traditional doctor’s appointment, nor is it meant to be providing medical advice. Rather, it is meant to supplement your doctor’s visit and explain why your doctor asked what they asked, and help explain the diagnosis and common treatment plans.
Doctors often have very different styles and approaches to a patient and their diagnosis. If we discuss a question or treatment plan that your doctor didnt mention, that doesn’t mean that they are a bad doctor. This could represent a difference in practice style, or the fact that your doctor knows you better than we do, and has created a treatment plan that better fits your lifestyle.
In case of emergency, please go to your local emergency department.
