Issue 102. I started watching Best Medicine on Netflix yesterday - don’t judge please. A heart surgeon leaves Boston for a village practice. He was used to treating the organ, fixing the patient, next. Now he sees his impact on the community he just moved into, good and bad.
What I like about Dr. Best is the relentlessness. The pursuit of the diagnosis, the appetite for investigation, the complete indifference to what anyone thinks of him, and the coldness with which he educates - he could be a bit warmer though. Watch his personality shift across the episodes. I recognized something. I did the same thing for years. Fix the heart, not the health.
That is what this week’s cover story is about. Why more doctors are moving into longevity medicine.
And no, this is not an invitation to binge Netflix!
As always, Happy Sunday.
