Dr. Anthony Lim is no stranger to helping to inspire change. As Medical Director of the Dr. McDougall Health and Medical Center and former staff physician of True North, Dr. Lim helps his patients prevent and treat their chronic illnesses -such as obesity, diabetes, cancer, autoimmune conditions, and heart disease - all with a whole foods, plant-based approach.
Dr. Lim shares his own personal journey to plants (having gone down the paleo and keto route) and how he now works with his own patients to “meet them where they are on their own journeys.”
Every person has a story, he says, and, once you understand where they are coming from, it helps inform how best to help them succeed.

| 0:26.7 | to do 100%. |
| 0:29.3 | I'm saying, know yourself and know what you feel like would be |
| 0:34.0 | the next logical step for you to take. |
| 0:36.8 | Know like Dr. Ornish says that the more you do, |
| 0:39.7 | the bigger your results are going to be. |
