    Ep. 37: To TRT or Not to TRT- Answering the Question of How to Optimize Testosterone Naturally

    In this episode, Dr. Colin Hickey, Braden Hicks, and Dillon Searcy have a  conversation about something affecting more men than ever—low testosterone. Testosterone levels are dropping at alarming rates, and while TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) is becoming more common, it’s not the only option—and for many, it’s not the first step that should be taken. We break down what’s actually driving this trend, from chronic stress and poor sleep to nutrient deficiencies and lifestyle habits that are working against your hormones. You’ll learn: • The root causes behind low testosterone • Why more men are turning to TRT—and when it may (or may not) be appropriate • How nutrition, strength training, and recovery directly impact hormone levels • The role chiropractic care plays in nervous system regulation and hormone optimization • Practical, natural strategies men can start implementing immediately If you’ve been feeling low energy, struggling with motivation, dealing with stubborn weight gain, or just not feeling like yourself—this episode is for you. We also invite you to join us for our upcoming Testosterone & Male Optimization Event at Haven Chiropractic & Wellness on April 18th at 11:30 AM.

    Ep. 36: Debunking Chiropractic Myths + The Hidden Benefits No One Talks About

    What if chiropractic care had nothing to do with just back pain… and everything to do with how your body actually functions? In this episode of Diagnosis Redefined,  Dillon Searcy and I sit down with the Drs. Colin and Kari Hickey at Haven Chiropractic and Wellness—the chiropractors we’ve partnered with to create a truly holistic healing space—to break down what chiropractic care really does in the body. We dive into the benefits that most people never hear about, including its impact on fertility, anxiety, nervous system regulation, and even the prevention and management of chronic illness. We also tackle some of the biggest myths that keep people from ever stepping into a chiropractic office—and why those misconceptions could be holding you back from healing. If you’ve been told your symptoms are “normal,” or you feel like something is missing in your health journey, this episode will open your eyes to a completely different way of looking at care. This is about more than symptom relief—this is about restoring function, supporting your nervous system, and giving your body the environment it needs to heal. If you’re ready to stop chasing symptoms and start addressing the root cause, this episode is for you.

    Ep. 33: Breaking the Pill Paradigm: A Biopharma Insider’s Take on Chronic Disease and the FDA

    In this episode of the Diagnosis Redefined podcast, host Erica Anderson engages in a deep conversation with Dr. Urban Kiernan about the complexities of navigating health and wellness, particularly in the context of pharmaceuticals and therapeutics. They discuss the importance of personal responsibility in health decisions, the differences between traditional pharmaceuticals and newer therapeutic options, and the role of the FDA in drug approval. Dr. Kiernan shares his personal journey and insights from his extensive experience in the biopharmaceutical industry, emphasizing the need for patients to be informed and proactive in their health care choices. The conversation also touches on the intersection of politics and health, the challenges of polypharmacy, and the importance of defining success in health outcomes. Takeaways Navigating health requires understanding both pharmaceuticals and lifestyle choices. Personal responsibility is crucial in managing health and wellness. Therapeutics differ from traditional pharmaceuticals in their application and regulation. Patients should ask their doctors about the goals and end game of prescribed medications. Informed consent is essential for understanding drug risks and benefits. The FDA approval process is complex and not always indicative of long-term safety. Polypharmacy can lead to serious health risks and should be managed carefully. The pharmaceutical industry is evolving, but challenges remain. Political changes can impact health care and pharmaceutical innovation. Empowering individuals to take charge of their health is vital for better outcomes.
