From Three Countries to One Conclusion: Medicine Has Forgotten the Basics
I sit down with Dr. Christina Paul to discuss what practicing across England, Canada, and the United States taught her about modern healthcare. We examine why all three systems handle acute illness well yet often miss prevention, early body signals, and the lifestyle foundations that shape health. Dr. Paul also explains why listening to your body, asking more complete questions, and building sustainable habits can support a longer health span. - - - - - About the Guest: Dr. Christina Paul is a board-certified internal medicine physician who attended medical school and began her training in England before returning to Canada for internal medicine residency and fellowship training. She later moved to the United States, giving her experience across three differently structured healthcare systems. After seeing how frequently conventional care focuses on established illness, and after experiencing thyroid changes and infertility during a period of significant stress, she pursued additional functional medicine education. At Extend Medical, her work incorporates root-cause investigation, advanced diagnostics, metabolic and hormone optimization, and proactive strategies intended to support health span.
