Read about this medical townhall:
In a recent GoldCare Medical Townhall, healthcare leaders gathered to discuss a groundbreaking shift in how individuals can reclaim control over their health. The event, led by notable voices in medicine and wellness, highlighted the flaws in the current healthcare system and introduced a fresh, patient-centered approach through the GoldCare platform.
Challenging the Conventional Healthcare System
Drew Katurik, Vice President of Business Development at GoldCare, opened the townhall by emphasizing the importance of taking control of personal health. He introduced GoldCare as a private membership association offering a unique alternative to the traditional medical system. This platform connects individuals with like-minded doctors and healthcare providers, allowing members to access unbiased, patient-first care.
Dr. Simone Gold, a central figure in this movement, addressed the dysfunction within the healthcare system, particularly highlighted during the events of 2020. Drawing from her extensive experience as an emergency physician, Dr. Gold exposed how financial incentives often overshadow patient well-being, steering doctors toward costly tests, procedures, and prescriptions instead of prioritizing true health and wellness.
The Broken Doctor-Patient Relationship
Dr. Gold explained how the traditional medical model focuses almost exclusively on disease management rather than prevention and wellness. She revealed a startling lack of education on preventative care during medical training, with minimal emphasis on maintaining health through lifestyle changes. Instead, the system rewards doctors for following a disease-focused model, leaving little room for genuine patient-centered care.
The COVID-19 pandemic further exposed systemic flaws, highlighting instances where patients were denied proper informed consent and were offered treatments that prioritized profits over health. This experience motivated Dr. Gold to create GoldCare as a solution that prioritizes unbiased medical advice and genuine care.
Exposing the Cost of Dysfunction
Physician Assistant Deborah Conrad shared her personal journey after being terminated for reporting vaccine injuries. She shed light on the severe shortcomings of the U.S. healthcare system, including skyrocketing costs, unnecessary procedures, and poor health outcomes. Despite being the most expensive system in the world, the U.S. ranks poorly on many health metrics, from life expectancy to maternal mortality.
Conrad discussed alarming trends such as the obesity pandemic and rising heart disease rates, underlining the failure of conventional treatments. She also challenged commonly accepted beliefs about statin drugs, salt intake, and the chemical imbalance theory of depression, calling for more transparent and patient-informed medical practices.
A Holistic Approach to Wellness
Registered Dietitian Christy Morrell introduced a refreshing perspective on nutrition and weight management. Drawing from her background in sports nutrition and private practice, Morrell emphasized that true health extends beyond diet—it involves movement, hydration, sleep, and emotional well-being. She criticized outdated nutritional guidelines and highlighted the need for individualized care.
Morrell also announced an upcoming eight-week weight loss program designed to guide members through sustainable lifestyle changes. Her focus on practical steps, such as meal planning, grounding techniques, and sleep hygiene, offers a comprehensive approach to health.
Pharmacy Beyond the Conventional Model
Pharmacist Brianna Gregory discussed how compounding pharmacies offer personalized medication solutions that go beyond the limitations of traditional pharmacies. By creating custom doses tailored to each patient's needs, Gregory emphasized the importance of addressing root causes instead of merely masking symptoms.
She highlighted the significance of bioidentical hormones and replenishing the body with essential nutrients to foster genuine healing. This personalized approach allows patients to receive treatment that aligns with their unique health requirements.
Naturopathic Solutions for Sustainable Health
Dr. Jana Schmidt, a naturopathic doctor and wellness director at GoldCare, presented holistic strategies for achieving and maintaining a healthy weight. Her recommendations included nutrition adjustments, natural appetite suppressants, detoxification, intermittent fasting, and lifestyle changes such as incorporating movement and reducing exposure to harmful chemicals.
Dr. Schmidt also warned about artificial sweeteners like aspartame, revealing how they can preserve fat cells and undermine weight loss efforts. Her guidance encouraged participants to embrace natural solutions for sustainable well-being.
