The Healthcare System: P5 :: The Spectrum of Health and Care
Do you know about the spectrum of health? Specifically, the Sickness, Wellness, Fitness Spectrum? This is something that nearly no MD talks about. If they do, You know they are up on their game or at least do CrossFit. Let’s start here: If we don't have measurable definitions for goals, we don't really have goals - not good ones at least.

The Healthcare System: P4 :: Emergency Room, Urgent Care or Your Doctor
I was fortunate enough to grow up with a physician in the house. Which also meant I could never play sick to get out of school. My dad stayed home anyway which was no fun even if you missed school. We were confined to our bedrooms. No watching TV when you were sick at home. But the good news is, I grew up with a good idea of when a true emergency was happening or not. Mostly, not.

The Healthcare System: Part 1:: How You Should Really Think About Healthcare, Doctors and Hospitals
In America, we have the gift of having some of the best healthcare available and the curse of the worse system to run it. Because most large government bureaucracies are run the same, it means people who make progress are not rewarded and people who make mistakes are fired and punished. This is literally the surest way to make sure no one sticks their neck out and does what needs to be done or have the balls to discover a new way of treatment. This is the most dangerous way t

How to be Sick
Seems odd, but some of you really don't know how to be sick. This seems to be a lost art today. The truth is, if we knew how to treat ourselves when we got sick, we would likely get sick less often. Human are the only mammal on earth that get sick and keep going. Every other animal retreats to a cave to fast and hibernate for three days. Sickness is a sign that you need to rest. We are guilted into this fast paced world where you are expected to keep up with thing all the tim
