Podcasts about preventive medicine

Most nursing homes think they're measuring success by how many patients move through their building. What they're not measuring is how many of those same patients end up right back in the hospital — and who pays the price when they do. In this episode of The Disrupted Podcast, Scott Middleton — Owner of Your Health and Chief Disruption Officer — pulls back the curtain on the facility partnership model Your Health is rolling out across the Southeast. It's a model that doesn't just serve patients in skilled nursing facilities; it pays those facilities for the care coordination work their staff is already doing, while creating the kind of presence that actually moves the needle on outcomes. Scott and Jamie cover the mechanics, the competitive landscape, and the cultural shift required to make it all work: Why Your Health is contracting with nursing homes to pay up to $20,000 a month for care coordination — and what that's worth annually to a facility with 200 Medicare patients The difference between "popping in" and genuine presence — and why only one of them drives real cost savings and keeps patients from bouncing back to the hospital Why physicians working in isolation are the biggest liability in a team-based care model, and how a September 1st bonus restructure is designed to change that culture How 80% of what used to require an in-person visit can now happen via telehealth — and the one thing technology will never replace: the relationship that makes a patient actually follow through Scott's 10-year urgency: why Your Health is already three steps ahead of the competition — and why that lead only matters if the model scales fast enough If you work in a nursing facility, lead a care team, run a healthcare organization, or believe the system needs a fundamentally better architecture — this is what building it actually looks like.

Send us Fan MailEpisode 046: Men's Midlife Wake-Up Call: Metabolism, Movement, and Prostate ScreeningFor many men, the first signs of aging aren't gray hair—they're a growing waistline, slower recovery after workouts, rising blood pressure, and the realization that they don't feel as strong or energetic as they once did. In this episode, Dr. Angela sits down with Dr. John from Thrive Family Health to discuss why the 40s and 50s are often a turning point for men's health and how small, intentional changes can dramatically improve long-term health.Together, they explore how metabolism changes with age, why movement matters more than ever, and how sleep, nutrition, stress, and hormone health all work together to influence energy, strength, and overall well-being. They also discuss why physically demanding jobs don't always provide the type of exercise the body needs and how purposeful strength training, mobility work, and recovery can help prevent injury and maintain function.The conversation also emphasizes the importance of preventive care and cancer screening. Dr. Angela and Dr. John explain how prostate cancer screening has evolved, why establishing a baseline PSA around age 45 (or earlier for those with higher risk or a family history) can be valuable, and why urinary symptoms should never be ignored. They also review the role of colon cancer screening and how early detection has significantly improved outcomes for many cancers.Whether you're entering midlife yourself or encouraging someone you care about to prioritize their health, this episode is a reminder that aging doesn't have to mean declining health—and that the best time to take action is before symptoms become serious.In This EpisodeWhy many men delay seeking medical care until midlifeHow metabolism changes with age—and what you can do about itThe impact of sleep, stress, nutrition, and physical activity on long-term healthWhy physically demanding work isn't always enough to stay healthyThe importance of strength training, mobility, and injury preventionWhen changes in libido or erectile function may signal underlying cardiovascular diseaseCurrent recommendations for prostate cancer screening and PSA testingWhen to start colon cancer screening and why early detection saves livesWhy routine preventive care can help men stay healthy and active for decades to comeChapters00:00 – Men's Midlife Wake-Up Call: Metabolism, Movement & Aging Well09:18 – Cancer Screening, PSA Testing & PreventionSupport the showFollow me on Instagram @angelalifestylemd and don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to my podcast & SHARE this episode.

Send us Fan MailMen's Health: Recognizing Depression, Finding Root Causes, and Building Preventive Habits with Dr. JohnEpisode SummaryDepression in men doesn't always look like sadness. It often appears as irritability, withdrawal, exhaustion, loss of motivation, declining work performance, or giving up activities that once brought joy. In this episode, Dr. Angela Andrews sits down with Dr. John of Thrive Family Health to discuss why men's mental health is frequently overlooked, how to recognize the warning signs, and why addressing the root cause—not just the symptoms—is essential.Together, they explore the many factors that can contribute to depression, including chronic stress, poor sleep, trauma, substance use, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and social isolation. They also discuss why self-diagnosing through the internet often delays proper treatment and how a trusted relationship with a primary care physician can help uncover what's really going on.The conversation closes with practical advice for men at every stage of adulthood—from building healthy habits in your 20s to preserving muscle, staying active, keeping up with preventive screenings, and protecting heart health later in life.What You'll LearnWhy depression often looks different in men than in womenCommon warning signs that are easy to overlookMedical and lifestyle conditions that can mimic or contribute to depressionThe connection between sleep, stress, hormones, and mental healthWhen ADHD, anxiety, or bipolar disorder should be consideredWhy professional evaluation is better than self-diagnosisThe importance of purpose, relationships, and spiritual healthPractical preventive health advice for men in their 20s, 40s, and beyondKey TakeawaysDepression in men often presents as irritability, withdrawal, fatigue, or decreased performance rather than sadness.Mental health symptoms deserve a thorough evaluation to identify underlying causes.Sleep, exercise, nutrition, stress management, and social connection are powerful tools for improving mental wellbeing.Therapy, medication, lifestyle changes, or a combination may all play important roles in treatment.Preventive care becomes increasingly important with age, especially for maintaining muscle mass, cardiovascular health, and recommended cancer screenings.Having an ongoing relationship with a trusted primary care physician leads to earlier detection and better long-term health.Episode Chapters00:00 Men's Health Focus00:51 Hidden Depression Signs01:35 Looking Beyond the Symptoms02:41 Sleep, Stress & Self-Medication03:37 Irritability, Withdrawal & Burnout04:41 ADHD, Anxiety & Mental Health Overlap06:15 Getting Help: Therapy, Medication & Lifestyle09:46 Faith, Purpose & Connection11:01 Men's Health Advice by Age13:10 Connect with Dr. John14:08 Podcast Outro & Medical DisclaimerGuest ResourcesDr. John Italiano, DOFounder, Thrive Family Health Direct Primary Care

Mandy J. Hill, DrPH, MPH, HIVPCP, is a first-time guest on the Faculty Factory who is highly aware of the unique challenges leaders face. She joins us this week to explore a critical yet often overlooked issue: the toxic feeling of a need to overperform in this field. Dr. Hill currently serves as Professor and Chair of the Department of Population Health and Health Disparities, and Centennial Chair in Preventive Medicine and Community Health, in the School of Public and Population Health at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston (UTMB). Overperforming is frequently normalized because faculty are conditioned to exceed expectations rather than simply meet them. But "when that becomes the norm, you can create a toxic condition," as Dr. Hill points out in the interview's opening moments. “If you are an early-stage investigator without mentors and champions willing to bring you into that ‘winning team,' the default way of thinking is to do more,” Dr. Hill said. Overperforming is quickly becoming (if not already) the baseline in academia. It is the overwhelming reality of the culture, so what can be done? Autonomy and investing in ourselves are the only paths forward, and choosing when enough is enough has to be implemented or we risk creating a profession that no one will want to enter.

The American healthcare system is built around a simple idea: get sick, get treated. But what if the problem isn't how we treat illness — it's that we've never seriously tried to prevent it? In this first installment of a two-part conversation, Jamie sits down with Brody Wall, Division President of Operations at Your Health, to trace the arc from a broken, reactive healthcare system to one where data tells you what's coming before the patient even knows something is wrong. Brody's path to healthcare wasn't through a textbook — it was through a father who was a Methodist minister and a mother who spent her career caring for underprivileged children. The mission was always there. The data just became the most honest way to fulfill it. In Part 1, Jamie and Brody cover: Why fee-for-service healthcare financially rewards volume of sick visits — not health — and how that one incentive structure explains why 17-20% of America's GDP goes to healthcare costs with outcomes that still lag behind other developed nations What Your Health was flying blind on before it committed to building a real data infrastructure — and what gut-feeling decisions look like when data finally proves them wrong How social determinants of health (Z codes) and behavioral health conditions (F codes) reveal which patients are actually at the highest risk of hospitalization The finding that changed everything: patients with four or more behavioral health conditions were ten times more likely to have multiple ER visits — and the clinical response that followed This isn't just a conversation about numbers. It's about what happens when an organization decides that preventing the crisis matters more than reacting to it. Part 2 drops next week. www.YourHealth.Org

What if the biggest gap in American health care isn't a drug, a device, or a diagnosis, but a discipline? On this episode host Fred Goldstein sits with Dr. Heather O'Hara, Chair of the American Board of Preventive Medicine, and Dr. Joshua R. Mann, founding Chair of the Department of Preventive Medicine at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, to unpack the often-misunderstood specialty of preventive medicine. They trace its reach across public health, occupational and environmental medicine, aerospace medicine, and lifestyle medicine, and explain why prevention-trained physicians rarely run stand-alone clinics, instead embedding inside hospitals, health departments, and employer health systems. The conversation turns candid on the economics of prevention, physician burnout, and what it will actually take for the health system to move "upstream."

"Your doctor doesn't live inside your body. AI doesn't live in your body. Influencers don't live in your body.

Today's podcast guest is Dr. Aimie Apigian, a physician who has become one of the leading voices in helping us understand the biology of trauma. Dr. Aimie is double board-certified in Preventive Medicine and Addiction Medicine, with advanced training in biochemistry, public health, and functional medicine. She earned her medical degree from Loma Linda University, where her education also included behavioral health, child psychiatric therapy, play therapy, and addiction family counseling. Before medical school, she studied Cell and Molecular Biology at the University of Washington, where she worked in the laboratory of renowned cancer researcher Dr. Larry Loeb. She is the national bestselling author of The Biology of Trauma, featuring a foreword by Dr. Gabor Maté. The book has appeared on the USA TODAY Best-Selling Book List and has received multiple national book awards. What makes Dr. Aimie's work unique is her ability to bridge neuroscience, functional medicine, attachment science, and trauma therapy into a practical framework that explains how our bodies store survival patterns after stress and adversity. Rather than viewing trauma as simply a psychological experience, she teaches that it is a biological state—one that can be identified, measured, and, importantly, healed. She is the creator of the Biology of Trauma® framework, which integrates somatic therapies, parts work, nervous system regulation, and targeted biological interventions into a structured sequence designed to restore the body's innate capacity for healing. She is also the founder of Trauma Healing Accelerated™ and the host of the popular Biology of Trauma® Podcast, where she has educated thousands of clinicians and individuals around the world. Today, we're going to explore what trauma actually is from a biological perspective, how it influences immune function, metabolism, chronic disease, and childhood development, and perhaps most importantly, what it truly takes to move from surviving to thriving.

It's been one year since the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in an unprecedented move, dismissed all the members of its Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), kicking off what would turn out to be a very concerning and busy year for infectious disease specialists.  We're going to recap this turbulent period – which includes a resurgence of measles, an unusually rough flu season, the emergence of a new COVID strain and outbreaks of hantavirus and Ebola – with Dr. William Schaffner, one of the country's most frequently quoted medical experts on infectious disease, vaccination, and public health. As a member of ACIP for decades, Dr. Schaffner brings unique insight into the dismantling of the committee and the distrust of vaccines that lies at the root of the changes. As he explains to Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith, while many vaccine critics are beyond reach, there are those he describes as vaccine hesitant that may be persuadable if the right approach is taken. “Beyond providing facts, we have to listen to them and respond to their concerns and make them feel comfortable. Information is fundamental, but behavior change only comes with a change in attitude.” Tune in for a wealth of wisdom and context that includes observations on: What's complicating containment of the Ebola outbreak; Challenges in public health communication in the current social media environment; What grade health authorities should get on their response to the hantavirus outbreak.

What if the most important care in the entire healthcare system is also the most underfunded? While hospitals and inpatient reimbursements rise with inflation, the physician fee schedule has quietly declined roughly 33% in real terms over 25 years — and this year it's facing another cut. In this episode, Jamie Preston sits down with Your Health CEO Matt Staub, just back from Capitol Hill, where he spent a record-setting 95-degree day meeting with seven legislative offices to advocate for physicians, providers, and the patients they serve across rural South Carolina, Georgia, and beyond. What follows is part field report, part reflection on why preventive primary care saves money and lives — and why we plan meticulously for weddings, retirement, and vacations, but treat our own health with a "call us if something happens" approach. In this conversation: Why a 2.5–5% physician fee cut hits frontline rural practices hardest The bipartisan doctors' caucus and the real appetite for reform Why winning can come from a loss — the Kobe Bryant mindset on process over outcome How a Disney ride (Spaceship Earth) reframes humanity's whole story around communication The case for proactive, team-based primary care over reactive sick visits Press play for a conversation about advocacy, communication, and a simple, powerful idea: the change you need to make starts with you.

Across the US healthcare system, prevention consistently takes a back seat to treatment, with avoidable illness, outbreaks, and chronic disease left to escalate before action is even taken. Some of the most powerful medicine interventions often occur before disease ever appears, so why is preventive steps taken more? What is behind this “prevention gap”, or the distance between what science already knows can prevent disease and what society actually implements. FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with Dr. Barry Davis, preventive medicine physician and public health researcher, and author of the book 'The Preventioneers: Diseases, Disasters, and the Discoveries That Changed Our World', who says why adopting a true prevention mindset is essential to protecting public health and building a more resilient future.

Dr. Stroope is an Assistant Professor in the School of Kinesiology at Louisiana State University. Stroope's research includes three overlapping areas: co-benefits of active transportation, public health approaches to increasing rural physical activity, and access to nature, with an overarching interest in how physical activity contributes to community thriving. Stroope is on the leadership team for the Physical Activity Policy, Research, and Evaluation Network (PAPREN) Rural Hub and serves on the Dissemination and Translation Board for the U Mass Prevention Research Center. Before joining the LSU School of Kinesiology, she spent ten years working for Cooperative Extension, with most of those years serving as the LSU AgCenter's physical activity specialist. In that role, she partnered with Extension agents, small towns, the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development, rural librarians, schools and other community partners to increase access to physical activity, with a particular focus on helping communities pursue funding for active transportation infrastructure. Description In this episode of the Elevate Yourself podcast, Rob sits down with Dr. Jessica Stroope to discuss how communities can be designed to support healthier, more active lives. Drawing from her experiences in public health, Cooperative Extension, and community-based research, Jessica explores the powerful role that active transportation, access to nature, and the built environment play in shaping physical activity behaviors. She shares lessons learned from working with rural communities, transportation departments, schools, libraries, and local leaders to create environments where movement is a natural part of everyday life. The conversation highlights how seemingly small environmental changes can have a meaningful impact on health outcomes, why partnerships across sectors are essential, and how community design influences far more than physical activity alone. Whether you're interested in public health, community development, or simply creating places where people can thrive, this episode offers practical insights into building more accessible and active communities.

Content warning: childhood abuse, childhood sexual abuse, sexual assault, rape, abduction, missing persons, gun violence, murder, and mental illness.Amber Rodgers is a survivor, business professional, and creative from Texas. As early as she can remember, her life was filled with chaos. By the time she was fourteen, she was a multi-crime survivor, and by 19 she would serve as a witness in her best friend's murder trial. Amber moved forward by cultivating a successful career and loving family, until her past trauma instigated a cascading effect in her mental health and relationships. Although Amber has shared portions of her story at-large, it took her decades and a life-altering mental health journey to realize the deep impact her teen years had had on her. The Broken Cycle Media team is deeply appreciative of Amber's transparency, rawness, and advocacy.

I'm feeling a bit reflective this week as we head into Mother's Day, a holiday that used to be a real bummer for us. It turns out that having a cardiac arrest the day after Mother's Day imprints some pretty weird sensory triggers, like the specific way a tree buds or the smell of spring air. Joining Kristin and I to talk about motherhood, medicine, and the messy "long view" of family life is Dr. Rebecca N. Thompson. Dr. Thompson is a family physician who took the concept of a memoir and turned it into a massive, 10-year collaborative project called Held Together. She didn't just write her own story; she captured the voices of 21 other women to explore how families are sustained through pregnancy loss, rare diseases, and the general chaos of raising kids. We also dive into the "all-you-can-eat buffet" of compassion and why grief shouldn't be treated like a contest. Becca shares the "painfully poetic" story of how she became "20 minutes pregnant" right as she started a surprise second residency, which she only got because another intern saw the hospital on a hill and decided to bail. It's a fiercely optimistic conversation about finding meaning in the "in-between moments" of life. Takeaways: Why Dr. Thompson believes Public Health and Preventive Medicine should be at the very bottom of Will's "specialty respect ladder". The concept of a "shared memoir" and why hearing the first-person perspective of 21 different women is more powerful than a standard anthology. The "Spaceship" hospital in Oregon that allegedly scared a resident so badly they turned their car around and quit on the spot. Why Will and Becca agree that "compassion is not a pie" and there is plenty of room for everyone's grief at the table. How Becca managed to write a full-length book over 10 years by utilizing 20-minute chunks of time in car pickup lines. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Parents, some new research on the effects of social media, screen time, smartphone use, and videogaming on eleven to twelve year olds warrants our attention. Reported in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, the study set out to examine associations between problematic screen use, and behavior and mental health outcomes one year later. Problematic screen use occurs when kids can't control their online time and it starts to cause conflicts, stress, or problems at home and school. The study found that problematic mobile phone and social media use were prospectively associated with higher depressive, attention-deficit, and conduct problems. In addition, there were higher instances of suicidal behaviors, sleep disturbances, and substance use initiation. This data is just part of the growing amount of research that should cause us to wake-up to the fact that our kids are way too attached to their screens. Set strict time limits in order to facilitate good mental, relational, and spiritual health.

How Continuous Glucose Monitors Can Optimize Metabolic Health—and Where GLP-1 Drugs Fit: Emergency physician-turned-preventive/metabolic medicine specialist Dr. Paul Kolodzik of Metabolic MD reveals how continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) are a tool not only for diabetics but also for non-diabetics and pre-diabetics to personalize diet, sleep, and exercise by seeing real-time glucose patterns instead of relying on fingersticks or A1c averages. Kolodzik describes CGM use in his clinic (two-week diagnostic wear, then therapeutic guidance), highlights insulin resistance, fasting insulin testing, glucose variability, and the role of low-carb eating, intermittent fasting, and strength training to improve metabolic syndrome, triglycerides, and fatty liver. They discuss CGM sourcing/cost, device mechanics and accuracy, possible future noninvasive wearables, and GLP-1/GIP weight-loss drugs, emphasizing supervised, limited-dose use with protein and lifestyle changes to avoid muscle loss and weight regain. A free PDF of Kolodzik's book is offered HERE.
