Mind Over Medicine: Challenging One of Western Healthcare's Biggest Blind Spots

Over the years in medicine, many of those of us who are physicians have cared for patients whose symptoms are very real and very debilitating, yet don’t always fit neatly into our traditional diagnostic frameworks. Our guest today, Dr. Julius Torelli, speaks about what Western medicine calls ‘medically unexplained symptoms,’ and in today's podcast, we'll be taking a deep dive into how his thinking evolved around that concept. We'll explore how he defines that category, what he thinks might be missing in conventional care, and how he’s come to understand the role of the nervous system and emotional health in those cases. Listen for all the details--you won't want to miss this one!
