How Doctors Are Using AI To Help Reverse Chronic Illness

Healthcare is catastrophically broken. We're spending $100K on preventable hospital visits while doctors get 12 minutes with patients, never read charts, and wonder why people don't "just take their meds." Type 2 diabetes patients sit at 10% control rates while the system shrugs.

Dr. John Oberg took 50 patients with dangerously high A1Cs and got 49 into control in 12 weeks. Then he did it again with 79 patients, dropping them into healthy ranges and taking 30% off insulin entirely. His secret? Reading the chart. Treating humans like humans. Changing ice cream flavors instead of lecturing about willpower.

This episode reveals how combining radical empathy, AI tools, and actual common sense is revolutionizing chronic disease care—and why the same principles work whether you're managing diabetes, depression, or just trying to unfuck your life one decision at a time.

Learn "implementation medicine"—Dr. Oberg's approach that treats patients as partners, not problems. We cover AI co-pilots, peer counseling, the loneliness epidemic, and why calling your doctor by their first name might actually save your life.

Key Topics:

98% success rates through radically small changes
AI in healthcare: when it helps vs. when it kills
The loneliness crisis: men now have fewer than 3 close friends
Why the food pyramid was corporate propaganda
White coat syndrome and first-name medicine
Using tech without losing your humanity
