“Striving to reach the top of the medical field had been my laser-focused Path. If I stopped operating on patients, I had no backup plan and half a million dollars had gone toward my education. At that time, I still couldn't imagine what I'd do other than be a surgeon. But these considerations all seemed so inconsequential compared to the one blaring fact I couldn't get out of my head: The patients aren't getting better. In September 2018, on my thirty-first birthday and just months shy of completing my five-year residency, I walked into the chairman's office at OHSU and quit. With a wall full of awards and honors for my clinical and research performance and with prominent hospital systems pursuing me for mid-six-figure faculty roles, I walked out of the hospital and embarked on a journey to understand the real reasons why people get sick and to figure out how to help patients restore and sustain their health. The insights I learned on this quest couldn't save my mom—her cancer had likely been growing quietly in her body long before I left conventional medical practice. I am writing this book because millions of people can improve and extend their lives right now with simple principles doctors aren't taught in medical school.”

Text from article reads “Evaluation Metrics. Figure 1 shows the overall methodology. Informed consent was obtained from all participants involved in the study, and, where applicable, consent was obtained from legal guardians for minor participants as approved by the IRB.” Then Figure One is headlined as “Autism Spectrum Disorder”, but the rest is the AI slop version of an infographic with no additional meaning, no images of any use, and about as many nonsensical strings of letters as words.

It’s a sunny Spring day, I’m wearing cargo shorts and a vintage Coca Cola Olympics tshirt. I have long hair I’m holding out- while most of it is an unnatural fire truck red, there’s also about an inch of faded bleached bits, and two to four inches of my natural brown roots.
