Doctor's Insight on Better Health Care For Patients | Dr. Laurie Marbas

Published: Jan. 30, 2024, 8 a.m.

Doctors are overworked. Patients are suffering. It doesn't have to be that way.

Dr. Laurie Marbas knew this all too well. It's one of the reasons why she shifted her practice to lifestyle medicine. This is a patient-first approach that seeks to identify and treat the root cause of illnesses rather than treating symptoms exclusively.
