Medical education is changing, but not in a good way. What happens when future doctors are trained to follow protocols instead of thinking critically? What if the most important things doctors should learn are the very things being removed from the medical curriculum?

In this episode, I interview Harvard-trained physician Dr. Josh Helman to share what he recently saw firsthand at medical school reunions and why it deeply concerns him. We talk about the gradual removal of hands-on anatomy training, the erosion of deep biochemistry education, and how rushed programs are producing physicians who lack the depth needed to solve complex health problems.

We also explore how standard-of-care medicine, insurance pressures, and pharmaceutical funding shape clinical decisions and why lifestyle, nutrition, and prevention are often ignored despite overwhelming evidence. This conversation challenges the assumption that newer medical training is automatically better and explains why experience, curiosity, and continuous learning matter more than ever.

If you want to understand how medicine really works and how to advocate for better care, listen to this episode.

“Neurologists are experts at coming up with neurologic diagnoses... Unfortunately, up until now, they have not embraced the concept that there's hope for Alzheimer's and other neurological conditions. And they have not embraced lifestyle medicine as a potential solution to some of the problems.”
