I didn't leave traditional primary care because I didn't love my patients or what I do.

I left because I didn't love the way I was being asked to care for them.

When I worked in an insurance-based family practice, follow-ups were often 10–15 minutes. New patient visits might be 20–30. And the expectation was to see 20–30 patients in a day.

I couldn't do it well.

Or maybe, to be more accurate, I couldn't do it the way I believed patients deserved.

I wanted to hear the whole story. I wanted to know about your sleep, stress, nutrition, relationships, symptoms, medications, labs and what had changed over the last several years.

I wanted enough time to ask WHY you weren't feeling well.

And that doesn't fit very neatly into a 10-minute appointment.

Research shows this isn't just an individual provider problem. Primary care clinicians are carrying an enormous workload that extends far beyond the few minutes you actually see them in an exam room.

One study published in JAMA Network Open found primary care physicians spent a median of 36.2 minutes in the electronic health record per patient visit—including documentation, inbox work and work completed outside normal hours.

Think about that.

The healthcare system may schedule a short appointment, but the work associated with caring for that patient doesn't magically fit inside that appointment.

And I think that's an important distinction:

There are incredible providers working in traditional medicine.

Many of them are exhausted because they're trying to provide thoughtful, individualized care inside a system that often rewards volume and efficiency.

I was one of them.

I burned out quickly because I constantly felt like I had to choose between staying on schedule and giving someone the time I thought they needed.

Eventually, I realized I wanted to practice differently.

I wanted time to listen.

Time to educate.

Time to look at the bigger picture.

Time to ask whether we're actually addressing what may be contributing to someone's symptoms, not simply getting through today's list of complaints.

That's a huge reason I built my practice the way I did.

It's not about seeing MORE patients.

It's about having the time and freedom to care deeply for the ones sitting in front of me.

And I don't ever want to go back to feeling like listening to my patient means I'm running behind. 🤍

When I worked under the insurance model, my approach to patient car...

You can find a TON of information online villainizing testosterone replacement therapy.

But can we also talk about the potential health implications of LOW testosterone? Because that side of the conversation matters, too.

A 2024 meta-analysis published in Annals of Internal Medicine looked at testosterone levels and long-term health outcomes in men. Researchers found that men with testosterone levels below 213 ng/dL had a higher risk of all-cause mortality, and men with very low testosterone levels—below 153 ng/dL—had a higher risk of cardiovascular mortality.

Now, an important distinction here is that this does NOT mean low testosterone caused those deaths. And it does NOT mean taking testosterone prevents cardiovascular disease.

This was observational data, so we’re talking about an association, not proof of cause and effect.

But it does reinforce something I think gets lost in the conversation:

Low testosterone shouldn't automatically be dismissed as “just getting older.”

Testosterone plays a role in far more than libido. It is involved in maintaining muscle mass, bone health, body composition, metabolic health, red blood cell production, sexual function and overall well-being.

So when we talk about the potential risks and benefits of testosterone replacement therapy, I think we need to have the WHOLE conversation.

There are risks to treatment. There are patients who aren't appropriate candidates. Proper evaluation, dosing, and monitoring matter!

But there can also be consequences associated with testosterone deficiency.

The goal shouldn't be to give every man testosterone.

The goal should be to identify WHY someone doesn't feel well, evaluate the whole picture, and treat appropriately when indicated.

That’s a much more nuanced conversation than:

“Testosterone is dangerous.”

📚 If you're a nerd like me, here's the study: Yeap BB, et al. Associations of Testosterone and Related Hormones With All-Cause and Cardiovascular Mortality and Incident Cardiovascular Disease in Men. Annals of Internal Medicine. 2024. PMID: 38739921

Are you ignoring the serious health risks of low testosterone? Many...

The best part of what I do is getting to witness lives change. 🤍
Practicing medicine is hard. Owning a business is hard. Staying on top of new research is hard. Parenting is hard.

But then I get a message like this:

“Lindsey, I want to truly thank you so much for helping me get my hormones and thyroid right. Everything in my life is so much better and I feel better than I have in a decade. My stress tolerance is so much better, I’m sleeping great, and I’m just so much happier.”

And THAT makes it all worth it.

Because I don’t want to just put a band-aid on symptoms. I want to help people understand what’s happening in their body, give them the right tools, and then watch the ripple effect that can happen when they start feeling better.

Better sleep. More motivation. More resilience. Better relationships. More capacity to actually enjoy their life.

But here’s the thing--the patient is the hero of this story. The practice is just a guide. THEY are the ones who take those tools and change their life.

If you’re struggling with your health and it’s affecting your quality of life, don’t just accept it as your new normal. Ask questions. Get your hormones and metabolic health evaluated.

And to the patient who sent me this message…THANK YOU! 🤍

This is why I do what I do. 🥹
