Should You Fire Your Doctor? | Dr. Olevia Metry

Episode 51 | Today, you’re gonna hear from Dr. Olevia Metry. Dr. Metry is a board certified family physician. While in medical school, she developed a love for nutrition, wellness, and fitness. Unfortunately, it wasn’t because of medical school that this happened; it was because her mom suffered from a major heart attack and had to have open heart surgery. Since then, Dr. Metry has dedicated her life to prevention that starts at home, not with a prescription. She loves empowering her patients to take on a significant role in their care as her partner in treatment. No habits are ever changed by sheer force. In the episode, Dr. Metry shares ways in which you—as a patient—can advocate for yourself, what to do if your doctor rushes you out the door and doesn’t listen to your concerns, questions to ask as you “interview” different doctors...and more! I had the absolute BEST time chatting with Dr. Metry and know you’re gonna love her as much as I do! Enjoy!!
