- 2:10Some challenges and struggles right now navigating the medical space.
- 2:16I want you to listen and come closer to this podcast.
- 2:19I call it the prepared patient podcast for a reason, because I want to prepare you.
- 2:25Because one thing I realize from my years of practicing is that us as a consumer and us as the patient, the caregiver or someone who love friend or family member, We are not aware how much power we have when it comes to Dylan with our doctors, El practitioners.
- 2:43Because if you think about it, You go to the doctor for a reason, and the doctor is supposed to help you navigate.
- 2:49Your illness navigate your symptoms of diseases.
- 2:53And I have to say I'm putting a disappointed because that's not happening.
- 2:57At the current space.
- 2:59Or current time.
- 3:00And the prepared patient podcast is design.
- 3:04For you.
- 3:06It is design for all of you.
- 3:10And I say my patients, my family members, my friends.
- 3:15The people that are looking for answers, sometimes you can find yourself in a particular position and think it's you, the problem is you when in fact the problem was never, you.
- 3:29It still happens.
- 3:31You have not developed the skills or not aware of how much power and how your voice is important, when it comes to.
- 3:40Your particular.
- 3:43Issues.
- 3:44What is dealing with chronic health conditions, not wanting to take a medication.
- 3:52Not understanding the blood work or frustrated with a particular practitioner, but you have a voice.
- 4:00So I created this podcast because as a functional medicine doctor and I have another podcast on the story of how I become a functional medicine doctor.
- 4:10I'm going to have so many podcasts to teach you.
- 4:13I'm so excited.
- 4:14I hope you can hear it in my voice because this has been a passion of love.
- 4:20So this podcast is design.
- 4:23To really help you.
- 4:26We gain control.
- 4:28Of your health.
- 4:29Of the decision-making.
- 4:30So why did I create this podcast?
- 4:33Okay.
- 4:33I did this because as a functional medicine doctor, I get so many people that are frustrated.
- 4:41Dylan.
- 4:42We're conventional doctors.
- 4:44Now, this is not the podcast to bash or blame a judge.
- 4:48Any doctors out there, any practitioners out there?
- 4:51I will be doing many podcasts describing to you.
- 4:53Why that doesn't the conventional space can really do the bare minimum because of what's going around.
- 5:00Right.
- 5:00People are getting sicker and they have to see more people.
- 5:03So in a way it's not a hundred percent, they fault.
- 5:08Not helping you or not giving you the answers and the solutions you're looking for.
- 5:12But once you understand that you'll be able to partner up with them, communicate and you'll be able to find your soulmate, Dr.
- 5:19Okay.
- 5:20So I created this podcast because I hear, and I get so many.
- 5:25Frustrated people coming to my clinic.
- 5:28And they were telling me what Dr.
- 5:29Jensi.
- 5:30I still don't know what's wrong with me.
- 5:33I see my doctor, my specialist for like 15 or 20 minutes.
- 5:38And the only thing I'm getting is a pill.
- 5:41I'm getting a medication, but I don't want the medication.
- 5:44I want some answers.
- 5:46I want to know what's wrong with me.
- 5:47I want to know why my body's acting the way it's acting.
- 5:51And I'm frustrated because I'm going to all these doctors and I'm spending all this money, the copay, the medications, even when I do follow the specific recommendations from the doctor.
- 6:03I'm still not getting well.
- 6:05So is it me?
- 6:06Is something's wrong with me because at the end of the day, the data will hand me a pill telling me it's in my head.
- 6:12And that creates more anxiety and frustration on my part.
- 6:16And I'm overwhelmed.
- 6:18I don't feel well.
- 6:19I am sick.
- 6:20My body is not mine.
- 6:22Right.
- 6:23I just don't feel well.
- 6:25I want a new body.
- 6:27I want to fix my body.
- 6:29But am I broken?
- 6:30So that's what I'm hearing, as a functional medical doctor, We get patients that I've seen so many.
- 6:37That doesn't the conventional space.
- 6:39And now the migrant in over.
- 6:42To do something more on the natural.
- 6:44Either, they're not happy with the doctors, the doctors are doing the basic basic blood work or they're just frustrated.
- 6:53I find myself.
- 6:55We're repeating the same things over and over again.
- 7:00No.
- 7:01Your doctor should give you an answer.
- 7:02Yes.
- 7:03There's nothing wrong with you.
- 7:05No, you are not crazy.
- 7:07No, it's not in your head.
- 7:09You don't need another pill for anxiety.
- 7:12You are frustrated and anxious because you have not found an answer yet.
- 7:16And sometimes it requires for you to see multiple doctors to really get an answer.
- 7:22So.
- 7:23This podcast is there to tell you.
- 7:26Again, give you the tools and we saw this is what you need in preparation to see your doctor, and also put it out there the proper way you should be treated when you are dealing with your doctor.
- 7:39Because so often I hear patients telling me how they were dismissed by the doctor.
- 7:44They were talked down that a doctor, they will be a little better doctor.
- 7:48They felt stupid and hopeless.
- 7:50But that does not listen into them because they don't want to take this spill.
- 7:54And if they come up with a solution or ask the question, on the natural side, like diet maybe I should change my diet doctor.
- 8:01What do you think?
- 8:02They get dismissed.
- 8:02Oh no, no worry.
- 8:04You don't have to change your diet just at this bill and continue it in the way you eat it.
- 8:08Oh, that has nothing to do with it.
- 8:09Should I get some exercise routine or no, you don't have to exercise at all.
- 8:13That's what I'm hearing.
- 8:15So consumers and patients want a better treatment.
- 8:19And this podcast is there to help you.
- 8:22To kind of hold your hands.
- 8:24And tell you what is acceptable.
- 8:27What is not acceptable and what you should expect when you deal with your doctor and you're not getting the answers and you feel unsatisfied when you leave the office.
- 8:37You don't have any clarity or you still feel confused, more confused leaving the office than going in when it's time for you to consider finding a new doctor.
- 8:47Okay.
- 8:48So again, this podcast is for everyone.
- 8:51Everyone, because right now there's a.
- 8:54Dynamic.
- 8:56And the medical space that I'm not liking.
- 8:58More people are getting sick.
- 9:00The doctors are overwhelmed and burnt out.
- 9:02They not spending the quality time with patients anymore.
- 9:05They're not asking you the pop-up questions.
- 9:07But if, you know, What is wrong with you?
- 9:11And if you know the right questions to ask them, you might get better answers.
- 9:16As a matter of fact, you'll be able to help your doctor help you.
- 9:19So why should you listen to this podcast?
- 9:21If you care enough about healing your body.
- 9:25You value the relationship with your doctor.
- 9:27You notice something out there and you not settling for less.
- 9:31This is the podcast for you.
- 9:33I'm going to take you on a journey.
- 9:35From the minute you have symptoms.
- 9:37Too.
- 9:38The minute you call the doctor to set up an appointment, the questions to ask how to look at the blood work.
- 9:45For specific conditions where blood workers should be looking for or ask the doctor to.
- 9:50Run.
- 9:51And that's another issue too.
- 9:53So often patients will call me because I own a clinic and I also do telemedicine virtual medicine.
- 9:59So I'm able to help many people all over the states.
- 10:01Will tell them, if you have diabetes, Did the doctor check for this and that?
- 10:05They tell me no.
- 10:06Because basic blood work doesn't work anymore.
- 10:09So I want you to be an advocate for yourself and advocate for your loved ones and advocate for whoever you care about.
- 10:15And say no.
- 10:16It's a medical injustice.
- 10:18And really.
- 10:19The men, the better treatment.
- 10:21This is the podcast for you.
- 10:23That's going to really change the way you see medical industry.

- 11:48We'll talk about blood work.
- 11:49W I have within your need is in this podcast.
- 11:53We're going to address the mind, body, spirit, and soul.

- 12:10What about the mind?
- 12:11Right.
- 12:11Like, what do you have to do?
- 12:12Because when you navigate the medical space and I get in the right answers.
- 12:17Your mindset can be very poor, very low.
- 12:21You go into emotional roller coaster because like, is it me.
- 12:25Why do I keep hitting this wall?
- 12:29Facing these struggles and challenges?
- 12:31What am I doing?
- 12:31Wong?
- 12:33Why am I still sick?
- 12:35I'm doing everything.

- 12:59You cannot do that.
- 13:02So often people are pushing through the days.
