Hi! I am a big fan of your videos and a bigger fan of what you're doing with healthcare. We desperately need a healthcare model in which both patients and providers can be happy, fulfilled, and well taken care of- our current system is killing patients and burning out providers (as you obviously know). Plus you're funny as shit.

Two questions: 1. Any plans to reproduce Turntable in other areas? Dallas would love to have you. 2. How do Registered Dietitians fit into your team, or do they? I love seeing how much you as a physician value the other members of your healthcare team, but I've never heard you mention dietitians. Dude. I'm starting to feel a little left out.

Thank you for doing this, and especially thanks for everything else you do.

Wow, I'm actually surprised to hear you refer out for medical nutrition therapy, but I can see how that makes more sense than having to keep a variety of specialist RDs on staff. I'll admit it bums me out, though. I'd love to see at least one very well-rounded RD on the team.

If I may ask a follow-up question: how can I stay in the loop on the timeline for Iora in Dallas? I'd genuinely like to be part of this. I have strong feelings about good patient care and provider burnout, which is why I'm in private practice. That said, I'd jump at the chance to work with you or at least within your model.

Thanks! In that case, how can we change our relationship status from "it's complicated" to something a little more meaningful? ;)

Ha! I'm so glad I currently have the top comment- now he's going to get a flood of questions from RDs. Just this once, we can get a doctor to acknowledge us.

WORD.
