This episode of Innovation Beyond the Charts features an in-depth, narrative interview with Dr. Andre Williams—one of Jamaica’s leading integrative oncologists and founder of Teshuva Wellness. From the outset, Dr. Williams shares his journey from public hospital frustrations and scarce resources to building a thriving, patient-centered private clinic blending conventional and holistic medicine.
 
Listeners will hear honest stories about confronting the limits of international standards, the necessity of clinical ingenuity, and the emotional resilience required to leave a stable position for the uncertainty of independent practice. Dr. Williams illustrates how adapting workflows, trusting clinical skills over technology, and hiring for heart—not just credentials—can create sustainable, compassionate care even when resources are tight.
 
 Key lessons for healthcare professionals and leaders include:

 - The power of curiosity and humility in driving clinical and operational innovation.
 - The practicalities of modifying guidelines for unique populations, often ahead of “official” updates.
 - The critical role of trust, communication, and culture in both patient care and team management.
 - The enduring value of “people-first” care as the foundation for sustainable change.
 
 Dr. Williams’s approach is a testament to the idea that true healthcare innovation is not about chasing trends or technology for its own sake, but about listening deeply to patients, learning from setbacks, and building systems that serve both staff and community needs.
