206: Redefining Pediatric Care: An Integrative Approach with Dr. Joel 'Gator' Warsh

In this episode of the Future Generations Podcast, Dr. Stanton Hom welcomes Dr. Joel 'Gator' Warsh to discuss the unique and integrative approach to pediatric care. Dr. Warsh shares his journey from traditional medical training in Toronto and Los Angeles to adopting holistic modalities. He emphasizes the importance of critical thinking in healthcare, the role of pediatricians in teaching rather than dictating, and the significance of informed parental choice. The conversation covers various aspects of child health, including diet, environmental toxins, screen time, and chronic diseases, while offering practical advice for parents on choosing the right pediatrician. Dr. Warsh also talks about his book, 'Parenting at Your Child's Pace,' and the need for a balanced perspective on health and wellness.
