Exploring Health: Macro to Micro with Parker Condit

Imagine a healthcare system where you and your doctor are at the center, not insurance companies. This episode promises to inform you on the Direct Primary Care (DPC) model, a revolutionary approach in healthcare that fosters a one-on-one relationship between you and your doctor. Our guest is Dr. Vasanth Kainkaryam, a triple board-certified physician and founder of Four Elements Direct Primary Care and Wellness Space, who will share why he believes in this model's power to transform the future of primary care.
Dr. Kainkaryam shares how DPC is different from concierge medicine and traditional healthcare models. He explains how this approach is not just about treating symptoms, but about seeing the bigger picture of an individual's life.
We examine the broader societal implications, particularly the role of social determinants on health. This episode challenges the status quo, asking fundamental questions about what healthcare should look like, and how Direct Primary Care can lead the way. Tune in, and let's redefine healthcare together.
