Dr. Ron pulls back the curtain on the U.S. healthcare system, calling it "sickness care"—a profit-driven industry shaped by medical education, pharmaceutical lobbying, and fragmented, reactive treatment instead of prevention.

He highlights rising chronic disease, opioid and alcohol-related deaths, hospital-acquired infections and medical errors, and the monetization of preventive testing, while noting suppression of holistic and natural alternatives.

The episode gives practical advice for patients: question doctors respectfully, ask about tests and alternatives, keep a medication list, insist on hand hygiene and disinfect high-touch surfaces, and seek integrative second opinions.

Dr. Ron teases follow-up episodes that will dive deeper into medical errors, prescription harms, and how to reclaim your health and freedom.
