Season 2 Trailer - Imagining Integrative Healthcare, From the Inside Out

Season Two of Third Opinion MD launches on May 10, 2022. For this second season, the overall theme is the true integration of our healthcare system, from the inside out.

I’m excited about where this theme will take us! I'm bringing guests to share insights about how doctors are trained today, and give you an idea of how integrative healthcare can happen with how we train doctors. I'll be talking with an expert on how to take an integrative approach to trauma. And I'll be digging deeper into the history of how we inherited the healthcare system we have, and why some medicine is considered traditional while other medicine is considered alternative. I will take a look at who decides which label (“traditional” or “alternative”) gets placed on certain types of medicine, and how a type of medicine is determined to be mainstream or fringe.

Join me next week, when I have Alisha Harrington join me to talk about how doctors are trained today, as we take a look at the potential for integrative medical education.
