Having a team of doctors and other terrific caregivers is certainly a critical part of maintaining your health. But how do you choose a doctor, especially a primary caregiver, that’s best matched to your needs?

There are a number of qualities to look for in a doctor, says Dr. Angela DeRosa. Does that doctor ask you questions, then take the time to listen to your answers? Does s/he just treat your symptoms or actually try to determine the cause? And especially if that doctor is to be your primary care physician, does s/he understand the role hormones play in our overall health and how compounded hormones are an essential part of a prescribed treatment?

Dr. DeRosa explores those questions and many more, including how an integrative specialist or functional medicine clinician can help you feel your best. In this episode of Empowered & Unapologetic, she also offers us another bit of sage advice: to take the time to take care of ourselves.
