Where Medicine Meets the Fairway
Playing for Life.
Your golf coach can fix your swing. Your doctor can check your labs. This podcast connects the two.
Every episode, real evidence-based conversations on what's actually happening in your body -- and why it's showing up on your scorecard. From a physician with over 25 years of clinical experience and a single digit handicap.
What to Expect
A conversation that's long overdue.
Golf is a four-hour marathon. Every shot requires focus, judgment, physical performance, fine motor control, and emotional regulation. And your body -- depending on what's happening hormonally and metabolically -- might be running on empty without you knowing why.
On this show, we connect the dots between your health, your hormones, and your golf game. Real, evidence-based conversations so you know what to ask your doctor and what to ask your swing coach.
We'll talk through why your energy drops mid-round, why your distance is changing, and what your labs might tell you that your pro never could. We'll talk about why your mental game feels harder to control in midlife, and what hormones, sleep, recovery, and metabolism have to do with all of it. And we'll even talk about why, for both men and women, your sex life is one of the best indicators for stamina on the course -- and how to maximize that stamina both in the bedroom and on the back nine.
Your game didn't change because you got worse at golf. Your body changed, and nobody connected the dots for you. That's what this show is for.

Got a Question?
Not every question needs
a public audience.
If there's something you've been wondering about -- drop it here.
Your hormones, your body, your game, the science behind any of it -- I read every question that comes in, and the best ones become future episodes. Your name stays private unless you tell me otherwise.
A note on what I can and can't do here
I can speak in generalities about labs, hormones, symptoms, and what the research says. I cannot review your personal lab results or give you individual medical advice. For that, you need a doctor who knows your full story. If you'd like that kind of care, AgeWell is here, or your own physician is a great place to start.
I'm a doctor, but I'm not your doctor. Questions submitted here are not medical advice and don't establish a doctor-patient relationship.
