As I think is the case for many HN readers, I've become a fan of the Huberman lab podcast: it's helped to crystallize a lot of my pop-biology and pop-medicine dabbling, and lit several paths around mid-life health and longevity questions.<p>The podcast presents a world of medicine that is utterly divorced from anything I've experienced. In this world, scientifically-minded time and resource rich doctors work together with patients to continuously monitor biomarkers, nutrition, and life circumstances in order to nip problems in the bud and implement small and precise interventions. In my world, doctors do not engage with optimization or prevention or small maybe-problems that are not yet guaranteed to become real problems. Generally, in the absence of an acute issue, doctors have always been short and dismissive and fixated on not overtesting or overprescribing - and they have no interest in my advanced-amateur understanding of my own health and biology.<p>How does one go from the typical medical-scarcity world to the Huberman world? Is it possible to find these kinds of doctors? Is it a question of simply finding elite doctors and paying them out of pocket? If such doctors are either unavailable or unaffordable - are there any possibilities for "remote health coaching", something akin to teletherapy?<p>Generally, I'm interested in holistic resources. If I have to, I will DIY, and I am willing to invest a lot of time in self-education, although I am not willing to go to medschool. But, other than the Huberman podcast and various in-the-weeds online discussion forums, I lack a comprehensive overview at my HN-typical level of understanding. Books, online courses, online communities, and so on would be very much appreciated.
