Have you ever left a doctor’s office feeling rushed, dismissed, or more like a “chart” than a person? You’re not imagining it.

In this episode of Sofia Unfiltered, host Riley Rees sits down with two nationally recognized physicians—Dr. Alan Roth and Dr. Andy Lazris, co‑authors of A Return to Healing—to unpack how a century of policy decisions, corporate interests, and profit‑driven care reshaped medicine into something unrecognizable.

From the 1911 Flexner Report and the elimination of diverse medical schools, to today’s overtesting, overprescribing, and 8‑minute appointments, Drs. Roth and Lazris reveal why everything about modern healthcare feels… off. More importantly, they share what patients can do to reclaim their power, demand whole‑person care, and find providers who actually listen.

Whether you’re frustrated by endless lab results, confused by conflicting prescriptions, or simply want care that treats you as a human being—not a number—this conversation is your roadmap to taking back control of your health.

🎧 Why Everything About Modern Healthcare Feels… Off will change the way you see your doctor’s visit—and show you how to advocate for the care you deserve.
