The Healthy Perspective

EP 60 | Taking Your Health Into Your Own Hands with Dr. Alka Patel

Dr. Chris Boman

Today Dr. Chris is joined by doctor, coach, speaker, author and podcaster, Dr. Alka Patel! Despite working hard as a General Practitioner to help people become healthy, Dr. Patel realized that healthcare was headed in the wrong direction. An over-reliance on medication as a cure for every illness and a dependence on doctors to wipe away symptoms was detracting from what really mattered. With her shift in awareness she discovered lifestyle medicine - an approach that focuses on the root cause of ill health through a whole-person approach and that embeds self-care at the root of living well. Dr. Patel founded The Lifestyle First Method®. This method brings together 10 key elements that have the biggest influence on your health and longevity, and provide the tools to help optimize your health!
