How Liv Health is Optimizing Healthcare Access & Affordability Andrew Wax

One of the biggest challenges that people who want to get optimized face is where to find the best doctors and healthcare providers across the country. Liv Health is a platform that easily provides this at an affordable cost. How does the platform connect patients with the best physicians and practitioners? What protocols do they focus on? On this episode, Liv Health Integrative Health Specialist, Andrew Wax, talks about the platform, the service, the app and how patients will have easier access to quality healthcare through it. 

 

Three Takeaways 

In order for us to effectively optimize our health, the path of health needs to be optimized too. That means patients need to know more about their own health, and be their own advocates, before they even get to the doctor.

The first step to optimization isn’t peptides, it’s hormones. If testosterone, estrogen, progesterone and thyroid are optimized first, then peptides and supplements will be more effective.

 

At the start of the show, Andrew shared how he got started in the optimization and age management field, and how Liv Health is helping patients achieve optimization more efficiently and effectively. We also discussed the 4 practices that are the basis of a wellness model and preventative health, and how the telemedicine works. 

We also discussed: 

• The heavy lifters in optimization and why we need to start with them 
• How Liv Health integrates into a patient’s daily life and holds patients accountable 
• Why labs aren’t as important once we’re dialed in
