I never wanted to be a patient. But I already am.

I've had my insulin rise.

I've felt chronic stress settle into my body.

I've had a panic attack from something innocuous.

I don't prescribe from a textbook.

I prescribe from a life I'm still building.

Every mile I run with my dog.

Every lap I swim before clinic.

Every patient I sit with for 60 minutes instead of 7.

This is the practice.

Not perfect health.

Not optimization.

Not biohacking.

Capacity.

The ability to absorb what life throws at you and keep moving.

Build the reserve.
