Transcript
- 0:00you are listening.
- 0:00Listening to the prepared patient podcast with Dr.
- 0:04Jennifer GNC, where we discuss what it really takes to heal your body.
- 0:09With the symbol tools we source is a mindset to get you there.
- 0:13I am determined to show you the reality of navigating the medical space as a patient caregiver and loved ones.
- 0:21So you can be empowered and take back the most precious and important asset of your life, which is your health.
- 0:28Let's get ready.
- 0:30Comfortable and get started Hello.
- 0:34Welcome back to my platform.
- 0:36What are you watching this on?
- 0:37YouTube.
- 0:39Facebook, Instagram are listening to the podcast.
- 0:42Welcome back.
- 0:42I am so happy to have you here.
- 0:44If you're watching this and you're new to me, you don't know who I am.
- 0:47My name is Dr.
- 0:48Jennifer GNT.
- 0:49I am a functional holistic, natural medicine practitioner.
- 0:54And a coach.
- 0:55To frustrated patients that are struggling and looking for a solution to eliminate the symptoms, eliminate the medications, and they want to do it the natural way.
- 1:07I am your girl.
- 1:08So as I am navigating the changes that I've made in my practice, I said, let me just get on here and do a quick video or a quick pat class to tell you guys.
- 1:18The three things we all should consider.
- 1:21When we are looking for place or practitioner that's going to help us.
- 1:26Get the solutions, get the outcome, the results that we're looking for.
- 1:30So I did a podcast.
- 1:32I highly attracted the wrong patients and it is my fault.
- 1:36Because I think I am responsible for all the things that I bring into my life, into my practice, into my environment, because I'm empowered.
- 1:43I can make decisions that will benefit me.
- 1:46And also I can make decisions that will.
- 1:48Hurt me.
- 1:49So I made some changes in my practice.
- 1:52To prevent us from working and attracting the one people and actually work with the patients that we love to work with.
- 2:01So I decided to not only.
- 2:03Do an open house.
- 2:05So some functional medicine open house where you can just get on zoom, virtual zoom, where I can show you behind the scenes of my practice.
- 2:14I can show you and talk to you and demonstrate so to speak all the services, all the programs that we have that can benefit you so that you take the information.
- 2:25To see if functional medicine, if I'm a good fit for you.
- 2:28So that's one thing that I think everybody should consider.
- 2:31Like, let me just.
- 2:33Talk to the partitioner.
- 2:35Let me see what they have to offer before I go ahead and spend my money.
- 2:38Before I invest time with sources because time has gone, like yesterday was gone.
- 2:44We don't have yesterday.
- 2:45So it is very important, I think for you to really take time to do the foot work and do your due diligence and vet the practitioner or the practice that you thinking about working with.
- 2:55So open house is one of the things I think you should look for.
- 2:59Look for a practitioner that's showcase.
- 3:02The part that the services showcase the programs out there so that you can ask questions.
- 3:07You can come with your specific half conditions.
- 3:10If you open to, you know, Other people to hear about your, um, The issues, because at the end of the day, as I'm a gut specialist, I'm a digestive health specialist practitioner, doctor.
- 3:22And a lot of people have got issues, right?
- 3:24We all suffer with the bloat and the guys and the constipation and diarrhea and the stomach pain.
- 3:29We suffer with the chronic fatigue with the brain fog.
- 3:32So I don't think we can be sharing anything that other people.
- 3:36Do not suffer with so they can relate.
- 3:38So in the open house, you come already prepared with your questions written down.
- 3:42You ask the doctor the questions, depending on the answers they are providing, then you can.
- 3:48See if that doctor or the practice is a good fit for you, because that will save you so much headaches, so much anxiety and frustration in the long run.
- 3:57Okay.
- 3:57And then the second thing I think you should consider when you are looking for your soulmate doctor, your soulmate.
- 4:03Practice to.
- 4:05Hire that person to handle your house is to do a natural healing assessment called what does that mean?
- 4:11Meaning.
- 4:11I mean that you go on the website, you schedule a free.
- 4:14Some people call it discovery call, but I call it a natural healing assessment call you get on the phone for 20 minutes and really ask them specific questions.
- 4:23I have this issues.
- 4:24Have you addressed these issues?
- 4:25Do you have any patients that suffers with this issues?
- 4:27What did you do to help this issues?
- 4:29So I want to get off the medications.
- 4:32How can you do that?
- 4:33Do you have any, you know, testimonials?
- 4:35Do you have any patients?
- 4:36I can talk to that really ask the hard questions because at the end of the day in this economy that we live in right now, We know, we don't want to just waste our money.
- 4:46We don't want to waste our money.
- 4:47We don't want to just give anybody our hard earned money.
- 4:51So it is your responsibility to really take time.
- 4:55To search for a practitioner and to really dedicate some time and space to get on the call with them and ask them the right question.
- 5:04Okay.
- 5:04And then another thing I think you should really consider is this doctor or coach.
- 5:10This is huge.
- 5:11'cause in functional medicine, conventional medicine doctors are not coaches.
- 5:15Right?
- 5:15We were told, Hey, if you're going to come see us in the conventional space to give you a pill, take this pill, take this medication.
- 5:22See you in three months.
- 5:23See you in nine months in six months.
- 5:25Right.
- 5:25And sometimes we'll never see you we'll keep refilling the medication, but what you need to understand is in order for you to make.
- 5:32Any changes in order for you to incorporate or embrace any lifestyle changes and create new habits, you need to be coached.
- 5:41And none of that's a lot of coaches out there who have life coaches.
- 5:45Uh, life coach.
- 5:46We have house coach.
- 5:48We have so many coaches out there.
- 5:49I am aware.
- 5:50But you also want your adapter to kind of talk to you and make you see.
- 5:57How doing this or implementing district mint can benefit you.
- 6:02Because we all know that we're not supposed to be eating processed food.
- 6:06Fast foods, unhealthy foods.
- 6:09And we all know that supplements are not created equal, but we have some good supplements.
- 6:14And we all know that taking the medication for a long period of time will put you at risk to experience the side effects.
- 6:19We know that, but yet we still take the medications, right?
- 6:23We still eat the ice cream.
- 6:24We still eat the pizza.
- 6:26We still eat the things and the food.
- 6:28That are not serving us that are causing us issues, that Jessie issues, because how would I say we don't have enough willpower or we don't have enough discipline to really coach ourself.
- 6:39Right.
- 6:39We don't have the tools and the resources and the means to coach ourselves.
- 6:43To say, Hey, don't eat the food.
- 6:46Right.
- 6:46So, but when you work with a doctor, that's going to coach you.
- 6:50That's going to have open office hours.
- 6:53You're going to meet with every week whereas 12 weeks, six weeks.
- 6:57Six months, but you know, that that does there for you.
- 7:00And when you get on the call or you.
- 7:03The doctor's going to yelled at you.
- 7:05Is that a good words, but not usually yell at.
- 7:07But we need to make you see how your actions are creating the results that you're getting today.
- 7:13So if you're not being coached and you're on this journey by yourself.
- 7:16It is very realistic to think that we're not going to make it.
- 7:20I, because many of us, we are human.
- 7:22Well fault will just fall into the have old habits.
- 7:26And that having the motivation.
- 7:28And that, and that.
- 7:29Really been consistent.
- 7:31We've taken actions and so yeah, things like that's going to happen.
- 7:34So it is the doctor as a coach to really speak to you.
- 7:39Right and say, Hey, remember you wanted to go on this journey because of this and this and this and this, so we can not afford.
- 7:45To waste our time, money and energy, and still continue doing the same things you're doing now.
- 7:51So you need your doctor to be a coach.
- 7:53Coaching is really talking to you and help you identify the things that you're doing that are not serving you.
- 7:59So you can create better thoughts, right?
- 8:01Because your thoughts create your feelings and your feelings, squeeze your action.
- 8:05Is that what they say?
- 8:05No.
- 8:06Life coach world.
- 8:08And then did I switch?
- 8:09But yeah, because the way you think Willy makes you feel the way you feel and be by you feeling the way you feel.
- 8:16Is it that you take actions or you don't right.
- 8:18If you think like, oh my God, I'm never going to beat this disease.
- 8:21I'm never going to hear my body.
- 8:23So then you're going to feel sad.
- 8:25You're going to feel hopeless.
- 8:26Defeated.
- 8:27Let your best, like the press, right.
- 8:30And then because of that, you would just fall in a victim mentality.
- 8:34You just be an analysis paralysis, then you don't take any actions.
- 8:38It's like, well, I ate the cookie..
- 8:41I, you know, try to lose weight, Alice.
- 8:43I was two pounds.
- 8:44I couldn't give him to the Cravens.
- 8:46I ate the cookie, so I might as well continue eating the rest of the cookies.
- 8:49And then you're just going to give up on this journey.
- 8:52You can just reach out to your coach.
- 8:54What does your doctor as a coach or you have a life coach or you have a half course.
- 8:57You have a mindset coach, but we all need a coach in our life.
- 9:01So in our practice here with me meeting with my patients, not in a group program every week, I'm also coaching them.
- 9:09I'm also questioning them because I feel like if we have the right mindset, the right thoughts, intentional thoughts, feelings, many of us can overcome a lot of obstacles and challenges that we are facing with and our health.
- 9:21So you want to make sure that your doctor can also not just give it a pills, give it a supplements, give you a healthy meal plan.
- 9:28Also going to talk to you about your feelings and your emotions.
- 9:33And help you see this powerful person that you are, and really help you bank on your strength and your courage to finish this journey strong.
- 9:42So three things open house that let me evaluate what this doctor has to offer the services they have to offer.
- 9:50You want to make sure you get on the call with them not to do a natural healing assessment call and ask your specific questions.
- 9:56And also you want to make sure that in that office visit, like they have weekly office visits or weekly coaching visits.
- 10:03And you get in the information every week, you have access to that doctor on a weekly basis that doctor's checking the news every week.
- 10:11So these are the three things I always look for when I'm choosing my doctors, which is very hard to find because.
- 10:18It's hard to find that cause they're busy, they don't do the things that I'm telling you.
- 10:22But again, I, you know, you'll find a doctor, the doctor for you.
- 10:26So don't give up, keep searching.
- 10:28If you need any help at all with any health issues that Jesse issues, diabetes, high blood pressure, anything at all, and you considering.
- 10:38Natural medicine, functional medicine, then I would highly recommend that you book a call with us or you come to our open house that we're doing May 1st, 2023.
- 10:47If you're watching this after May 1st, you can reach out to us.
- 10:50You see all the links in the show notes in the comment section below.
- 10:54To reach out, to see when we're going to have our next open house.
- 10:56But all the things that I mentioned is all the things that we do in our practice to our patients.
- 11:01And I think this is a game changer because if you do that, then you can literally find your soulmate doctor.
- 11:07Your stress, your anxiety or frustration will be reduced and you will get the proper treatment and the results and the outcome that you've been looking for.
- 11:15Okay.
- 11:16I hope this finds a while.
