Beth DuPree, M.D., FACS, ABOIM – Chief Medical Officer, Gateway Clinics

What if we’ve been treating the wrong problem in healthcare?On this episode of Tim Talks: Behavioral Health, Timothy Zercher sits down with Dr. Beth DuPree, a breast cancer surgeon turned integrative medicine leader, to explore why traditional medicine often misses the most important part of healing - the mind.With over 35 years in medicine, Dr. DuPree shares how her experience with cancer patients revealed a major gap in care: treating the physical disease without addressing the emotional and neurological impact. The conversation dives into: Why “healing” goes beyond removing disease  The role of the nervous system and vagus nerve in recovery  How bioelectric therapies are changing outcomes in mental health and cancer care  Why medications alone often fail to address root causes  The future of holistic, patient-centered treatment This is a powerful, forward-looking conversation on where behavioral health is heading - and what it will take to truly help patients heal.
