I love this post….it means im not the only one who thinks this way:

(Copied from a Linked In post by Mark Richman, an ER Dr from New York.)

I give patients my phone number. Most doctors are terrified of this idea.

“They'll hound you for narcotic drugs."

"They'll call you at all hours."

"They'll make you responsible for everything."

But here's what actually happens:

Yesterday, I gave my number to two patients in the clinic.

One couldn't get their specialist appointment scheduled. Another was struggling to fill a prescription.

I told both: "If you hit roadblocks, just call me. I'll help you navigate it."

Other doctors think I'm crazy. But in years of doing this, patients have never abused it.

They don't want to spend time thinking about healthcare; they want to spend zero time on it.

When they do call, it's because something serious went wrong:

- Insurance fell through
- Pharmacy couldn't fill medication
- Appointment got cancelled

They're not calling to chat. They're calling because they need help getting back to their normal life.

The truth is, we assume patients obsess about healthcare because we work in healthcare.

But patients just want to get better and move on.

When I give someone my number, I'm giving them trust, and patients honor that trust.

They call rarely, but when they do, it's for real problems I can actually help solve.

Sometimes the most powerful medicine is letting someone know they're not alone in navigating the system.

A lot of people knew I had a gastric sleeve weight loss surgery in January 2024. Recently, I achieved my first goal of losing 100 pounds but still some to go. Time to post some pictures.

Sometimes I inspire my patients;
more often, they inspire me!

I am looking for an AMAZING group of 5 individuals who want to commit to 12 weeks of weight loss using Tirzepatide (newest weight loss drug). Price includes five one hour group office visits, 12 injections per person, starting labs and ending labs. Must have a BMI over 30, not diabetic, and be able to support each other in your group. The cost of the program is spread over the 12 weeks making your dream of losing weight attainable. This offer is self pay only. This is great for those without insurance or if your insurance doesn't cover weight loss medication (which most don't anyway.) Cost is $200 per person per week but is all-inclusive of the visits, labs, drug, injections, and weekly weigh-ins. Group must commit to one hour group sessions at specified intervals. First week includes picking out a team name!

Freestyle Libre sensors and protein drinks will be available for an extra cost.

Get your group of supportive friends together who have the same goals. Looking forward to hearing from you.
