Keeping Abreast with Dr. Jenn

2: The Difference In Addressing Breast Cancer; Functional Medicine versus Conventional Medicine


Listen Later

When I was a breast cancer surgeon one of the questions I frequently got was, “Why did I get breast cancer?” My answer was always that it was multifactorial… aka bad luck! It wasn’t until my own health diagnosis that I decided this answer was unacceptable and is what led me down the path of functional medicine. Today, I dive into what makes functional medicine different from conventional medicine!


You’ll hear more about:

  • My role as a breast cancer surgeon 
  • What actually causes illness
  • How conventional medicine does NOT actually treat your illness
  • The 2 very different things each type of medicine focuses on
  • Optimal vs. normal
  • Extra, more personal steps functional medicine takes to understand your health as a whole
  • And more!
