Celebrating 6 Years Cancer Free with Dr. Rubin and Dr. Darling

Our guests today are two incredible doctors, Dr. Dan Rubin, a naturopathic oncologist and Dr. Mia Darling a naturopathic specialist. They graciously took the time to talk with us today on this podcast, but have appeared on many podcasts prior, professional medical panels and even had their own talk series called “Ad hoc with a doc” which you can find on their website listenandcare.com

 The reason we are here today is because 6 years ago on this weekend Isabel was first diagnosed with Stage 4 Breast Cancer which later metastasized to her brain! Yet miraculously here we are with Isabel having a clean bill of health.  One of the most key components of her recovery and now part of her ongoing health maintenance program is her discovery of Naturopathic Specialists, LLC, who she has been seeing for 6 years and now she has me going and I have been visiting them regularly for over two years now! 

We start by having the doctors share what naturopathic medicine is and what makes it different from traditional Western medicine. Then we learn about each doctor's extensive background and their areas of specialization. Next we get into Isabel's treatments, ozone therapy, Epstein Barr, and discuss general health, wellness and longevity tips.
 
This is an amazing podcast with two incredible naturopathic doctors and while we really just scratch the surface here, you can learn much more by visiting their website, their videos on Instagram and listening to the other podcasts and talks they've given.

Today’s guest is Pooja Babbrah, a strategy and Senior policy consultant in the healthcare industry and Point-of-Care Partners’ Practice Lead for PBM Services and a co-chair of NCPDP’s Specialty Pharmacy Work Group. Her focus is on healthcare technology and the importance of using technology to help those involved in a patient’s care including doctors, nurses, other clinical and administrative staff and the patients themselves.

Pooja will shed some light on how COVID-19 has impacted her work and her efforts to ensure healthcare information is shared quickly, accurately and securely. We'll also discuss how technology is changing the way we receive health care and how those in the field are adapting and benefiting from all the new innovations.

Throughout her career, Pooja’s efforts have been instrumental in bringing relevant and critical information to doctors in an electronic format.  It wasn’t until she was well into her career when she realized the work she was doing was having such a positive impact on patients and their families and since then, she’s made it her mission to focus her efforts on work that will help patients. In that regard, last year she testified in front of Congress to advocate for the ability for consumers to easily compare medication prices at multiple pharmacies to find the lowest price for their prescriptions. She has also recently been appointed to the Board of Trustees for a national healthcare standards organization which is focused on ways to ensure that healthcare information is shared quickly, accurately and securely to help improve patient outcomes. She also launched the health care industry’s first certified ePrescribing platform for controlled substances, DrFirst’s EPCS Gold 2.0 and was also involved with the development and launch of the company’s HIPAA and DIRECT compliant secure clinical messaging platform.
