Wow
When this patient came to me they told me their health goal (which I always ask for) was to not be on a ton of medications and be able to pick up their grandchildren.
We are helping patients, by taking time and understanding their health goals and informing them of how to do it and they are putting in the hard work making it a reality.
When I worked in traditional medicine, we rarely were able to take patients off of medications. Since I’ve started practicing Functional Medicine and treating the root cause instead of masking symptoms with pills we have been able to safely and responsibly de-prescribe on multiple occasions.
I now challenge the status quo with questions like: “If you’re STILL on your “____” medication, Are you actually on a path to reach your health goals?” The sad truth is.. For as long as I was in traditional medicine I can count how many times I actually heard a clinician ask what their health goals actually were.
