Episode 4. Health & Wellness
Industrialized medicine has reached a crisis with widespread dissatisfaction among patients, doctors, nurses, hospitals and all aspects of today’s medical-industrial complex.
The USA spends more than any other country on medical costs per person – almost 16% of its GDP – with no better outcomes than countries spending half of this amount.
All this has given rise to a rapidly growing new sector of our economy, based on the philosophies of prevention and natural (and cheaper) approaches to wellness. Nowhere is “redefining success” more emblematic than in this sector, where less is more, and love and personal caring are valued.
Meet some of the new providers with new approaches to wellness and patient care.
