In the last episode, we met Dr. Bryan Walsh, a naturopathic physician and well-renowned teacher with a unique way of approaching medicine. He challenged us to remain humbly skeptic and excitedly curious. He spends his time scouring the literature and redefining his approaches to learning, teaching, and practicing clinical medicine.
Today he discusses the latest science on some tried and true traditional biomarkers and the art of applying them clinically.
“There is a science to blood chemistry, but there’s also an art.” – Dr. Bryan Walsh
