Welcome to The Better Prescription, a podcast where we will discuss functional medicine, root cause medicine, and alternative, natural paths to healing without prescription medicine. The conventional model of care is increasingly about disease management rather than root cause treatment, with insurance companies and big pharma dictating patient care. As a result, doctors are becoming burnt out, and patients are disempowered. This podcast seeks to show that a better prescription is possible when patients and doctors work as a team to treat the underlying causes of diseases. People are complex and health is influenced by so many factors. As such, a functional, holistic approach meets them where they are and treats them in their unique situations. We are so excited for you to join us on this journey where we explore care beyond medicine.

“We are looking for the better prescription; one that has a better understanding of the disease, one that can allow patients to be a partner in their care, one that can educate patients, one that can truly diagnose an imbalance before it turns into a disease, one that can train a position to be a coach, one that provides a roadmap to healing rather than treating, one that can offer a solution rather than putting a Band-Aid.” — Dr. Minni Malhotra [0:02:30]
