In this episode, we welcome Dr. Efrat Lemandre, a nurse practitioner and medical disruptor, to explore the challenges and myths surrounding the medical system. Together, we discuss why medical gaslighting persists, the impact of professional indoctrination, and how even well-intentioned doctors may not always have all the answers. Dr. Lamandre shares her personal journey from conventional medicine to functional and integrative practices, emphasizing the importance of curiosity and humility in healthcare.

We debate the roles and responsibilities of both patients and practitioners, tackling big questions like when to trust medical advice and how to advocate for your health. Our conversation touches on the limits of the current system, the need for patients to assemble their own healthcare teams, and the importance of education and self-advocacy more than ever. 

If you enjoyed our spirited exchange on medical gaslighting and how to play a proactive role in your health journey, please share this episode with friends and colleagues, especially anyone ready to challenge the status quo or advocate for change in healthcare. Your voice and curiosity matter!
