113: Why You Need A Vegan Doctor | Dr. Scott Harrington

April 26, 2021

Dr. Scott Harrington returns to our podcast show for a second time.

Finding the right Primary Care doctor can be difficult, no matter who you are. But when you’re a vegan, it can be even harder. That’s why Dr. Harrington created Vegan Primary Care. A telehealth practice licensed to help you in most US States, providing care from a vegan doctor’s perspective.

As board-certified physicians, they provide many of the same services as any primary care doctor you see in-person – writing prescriptions, ordering imaging or lab tests and making referrals. But rather than rely only on the Western model of medicine, which manages chronic conditions with pills, they believe in plant-based care that seeks to achieve optimum health through a whole-foods plant-based diet, enjoyable exercise, and maintaining quality relationships.
Dr. Harrington’s focus on individual treatment is evident in everything he does. He values the doctor-patient relationship and gets to know you personally. Initial appointments are 1 hour with 30-minute follow-ups so you never feel rushed.

Why do you need a vegan doctor?
Your current doctor may not know where you get your protein. They may not know the connection between nutrition and cardiovascular disease.

Dr. Harrington is here to be your advocate. He mentions an app that you can use to track your daily meals. I looked it up and found one called Ate Food Diary + Habit Journal.

Have you ever used a food diary/log? Or are you still battling certain health conditions despite making a change to a whole food plant-based diet?

Head on over to our Instagram @plantbaseddfwpodcast and send me a message. Let me know how you are doing and if you have been able to reverse certain conditions.
