#23 Dr. Spencer Nadolsky: Doctor-Creator-CEO Bypassing The Healthcare Gatekeepers


Listen Later

Jordan sits down with Dr. Spencer Nadolsky, a physician, creator, and founder of Vineyard, a virtual clinic focused on obesity. They dive into America’s broken healthcare system, the obesity epidemic, the rise of GLP-1s like Ozempic and Zepbound, and how Spencer’s humorous Instagram content became the launchpad for Vineyard, a new direct care model for healthcare.


Spencer is a perfect example of a professional-class creator bypassing the gatekeepers and middlemen that dominate the healthcare industry to provide direct care to his community.
