You might have heard this: red wine is good for your health. But is it true? And what does it do for you, exactly? I’ve talked about wine before, on this blog, but I had the feeling a more comprehensive roundup of wine’s health benefits was warranted. Are you a wine lover? Curious about the specifics […]

Everybody is afraid of cancer. It’s the elephant in the room for many, many of my patient visits. Occasionally people will vocalize their fear, but often it’s lurking there, unsaid. […]

I’ll admit it: I’m a little obsessed with Europe. In the past I’ve written about the French Paradox , and there’s a big part of me that would like to be reborn in this life as a French woman (and not only because spa treatments are considered part of the French healthcare system). Also, I […]

While those things can help, they’re not what drives true, lasting transformation. The secret? It’s all about your identity — […]

Between juggling family obligations, work deadlines, gift shopping, and an endless calendar of events, it’s easy to reach your limit. When I was working as a doctor, […]

We’re all guilty of letting our fears hold us back. When I was working as a family doctor but wanted to pivot into wellness and personal development, I experienced an intense fear of change.
