Summary

Why do we wait for people to become ill before we help them get better?

In this episode, Dr Louise Newson is joined by GP and preventative health specialist Dr Harpreet Sood for a conversation about why healthcare needs to move beyond firefighting disease and towards a more proactive, personalised approach.

Together, they discuss the importance of hormones in long-term health, why so many women globally are still unable to access treatment and the need for better education for both doctors and patients. They also explore how empowering people with knowledge about sleep, nutrition, exercise and hormones can transform future health outcomes.

Today on my podcast, I've got Dr. Harpreet Sud, who is a UK and US trained doctor, and he currently

0:07.0

works in both London and Dubai. We talk about the global health problem of not being well

0:14.2

for long enough, about how we can personalise medicine and how, of course, we can have hormones

0:20.4

in our everyday consultations

0:22.6

and helping people make the right choices for their future health.

0:28.1

So Hartford, you're in the studio.

0:30.4

I've dragged you in at short notice because you're over from Dubai for a short period of time,

0:35.3

but you're UK trained.

0:39.0

I've known you on and off for a few years, but I feel like I'm getting to know you a bit more, and you're getting to know the work

0:43.9

that I do a bit more, which is great. But we're both GPs. We're both really keen in keeping

0:49.7

our patients as healthy as possible. But just tell me a bit about your background. Absolutely. So we've actually known each other since 2015. We got introduced by a woman called Gwen Reese. You don't remember. I do remember her. She was great. She was like Louise's amazing, fantastic doctor. She wants to do more in women's health and set up a clinic. Please get in touch.

1:15.6

Delighted to be here. You know, it's always great to have this moment to talk with friends, but also

1:21.8

colleagues. So my background, as you know, GP in the UK trained both here and the US,

1:26.9

background in public health health systems,

1:30.3

but increasingly been doing a lot more in preventative health, proactive health, and

1:36.3

thinking about how we flip the model from being essentially a reactive service that we're all used to

1:41.3

here in the UK to do a more preventative proactive service.

1:45.3

And in particular, combining that with the role of technology and wearables, as we've seen

1:50.8

advancements, as you know, great advancements in diagnostics, therapeutics, but also wearable

1:56.6

technology. I mean, I wear aura. I wear a woup. You know, weird, all sorts. But are they
