  • UPDATED WEEKLY

Dr Crawford believes that patients are not adequately informed about their healthcare choices. He now endeavors to close this information gap by providing digital content that addresses the most common health concerns we face from both the traditional medical perspective and non-medical perspectives. By bringing together doctors, nutritionists, fitness professionals, and other paramedical professionals we will discover what you can do today to avoid medical intervention whenever possible. Life Before Medicine is a weekly podcast that will better inform the public about common disease states and how lifestyle, and nonmedical choices, influences their risk. Each week, we will take a quick deep dive into a health topic, present the latest research/treatment, dispel myths, and offer practical steps you can take now to improve your health.
