This is a great 3-minute listen on the gut microbiome! With so many influencers promoting microbiome testing kits and supplements, it’s easy to get caught up in the hype - but the science doesn’t support those quick fixes. The truth is much simpler: fiber is the best fuel for a healthy gut microbiome.
Fiber has a profound impact on gut health, which in turn supports your overall well-being. So, eat your fruits and vegetables 😊

Visiting SVH(Saint Vincent Hospital )always fills my heart -my alma mater and second home. It’s where I trained, where my oldest child has experienced residency alongside me, and now, where I was honored to join a panel for a resident career discussion.

The energy in that room was incredible. The residents had so many thoughtful questions about Direct Primary Care - and I love that it’s finally getting the attention it deserves.

This is the future of medicine: time to listen, space to think and care that’s truly personal.

Honoring all who gave everything for our freedom 🇺🇸

A patient came to me after almost spending $14,000 on “functional medicine” online (I am a proponent of evidence based functional medicine)
Here’s what she was sold:
A mold detox - no test done.
A parasite cleanse - despite a completely normal colonoscopy and endoscopy and normal biopsy results.
A pile of supplements with no real evidence behind them. All only for 9 visits.

She’s 62, came in exhausted, foggy, not sleeping well. We’d already done her workup together at Rhythm. We knew her glucose and insulin were high. I gave her my recommendations - but she wanted faster answers and found someone online.
They charged her $600 just to run labs. Then pitched her a $14,000 program. “Discounted.”
For $14,000, she could see me for 11 years.
I told her the truth - the dietary changes and glucose monitoring made sense. The rest didn’t. I told her what I’d tell my own mother - walk away.
She did. In doing so, she saved $14000!

I’m not sharing this to shame anyone. People are desperate to feel better, and these companies know it. I’m sharing it because you deserve care that’s actually grounded in evidence - not fear, and not a sales funnel.
If something sounds too good to be true, run it by someone you trust first. 🙏

Finally, some well deserved focus on women’s health. PMOS affects 1 in 8 women - over 170 million worldwide.

When women are healthy, educated, and empowered, societies demonstrably do better.

Walked into my son’s room and found these two on neighborhood watch duty 😂
One’s scanning the street, the other one is making sure they are doing it right.

Honestly, that seems somewhat similar to what I do at Rhythm 😄

My members put in the work. I make sure they do it safely, smartly, and with someone in their corner every step of the way.

Your health journey doesn’t have to be a solo mission. Let’s do this together.

What if insurance companies, hospital systems, and administrators simply weren’t part of the equation?
Here’s the thing - they don’t have to be. The direct-to-consumer model is picking up serious momentum, and it’s easy to see why. When care happens directly between a doctor and a patient, with nothing in between, patients are happier and doctors are more satisfied. It turns out the simplest model might also be the best one.

The ACC just recommended Apo B and Lipoprotein(a) testing for everyone. Welcome to 2024, mainstream medicine.

Rhythm Medical members? They’ve had Apo B from the start. We monitor it every 3-4 months(included in the membership). We have been checking Lipoprotein a for high risk individuals.

We follow the evidence - not the update cycle. And we’re already asking the next question: when does fasting insulin get its moment?

Metabolic health doesn’t wait for guidelines. Neither do we.
