Welcome to "You, Chief Medical Officer," the podcast where we empower you to take control of your health. As your host, I believe that every person is their own healthcare enterprise and that the most important medical charge you have is to appoint yourself as the best person to make decisions about your health.

I know that taking on this responsibility can be daunting, but I'm here to help. My goal is to provide you with a think tank of health information, ideas, and exploration that you can use to make informed decisions about your health.

I'm not here to tell you what to do. Instead, I'm here to present facts, ideas, and options, and to help you weigh them against your personal circumstances and values. I invite you to consider me, my guests, and anyone else in the medical field as advisors to you, the Chief Medical Officer of your own life.

It's important to remember that not all information presented here constitutes an endorsement, and none of it is direct medical advice for your specific condition. Instead, I want to empower you to think critically about the information presented and make the best decision for yourself in consultation with your personal medical practitioner.

So, welcome to our tribe. We're glad you're here, and we're excited to help you put the world on notice and say, "there's a new chief in town." Let's get started!
