On this episode I have the honor of talking with Dr. Luke Howell, a family medicine physician trained in osteopathic medicine. We discuss the blend of osteopathic care delivered in a direct primary care model, and if you’re not sure what those terms mean, this episode breaks it down.
Dr. Howell shares his personal journey into medicine and what led him to direct primary care. We cover:
- What Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy (OMT) is
- How OMT differs from chiropractic care
- What conditions OMT can help with
- How OMT fits into a direct primary care model
- Why you should see a doctor regularly even if you’re pretty healthy
If you’re interested in a primary care model built around more time with your doctor, this episode is worth a listen.
