Why Neurology Should Be Your First Stop for Unexplained Symptoms with Dr. Daniel Kantor
In today's episode, Haylie Pomroy sits down with neurologist Dr. Daniel Kantor, President Emeritus of the Florida Society of Neurology and VP of Clinical Research and Development at the Gateway Institute for Brain Research, for a conversation that challenges how most people think about unexplained symptoms, chronic illness, and the doctor-patient relationship. Dr. Kantor walks through why over-reliance on MRI results has left a generation of patients told nothing is wrong with them, why the nervous system, immune system, and gut microbiome communicate in ways most clinical silos never account for, and why gluten in the American food supply is a fundamentally different substance from what people eat in Europe. He also goes deep on the most disabling aspect of chronic illness, and it is not weakness or physical limitation. It is uncertainty. One in five Americans lives with a chronic illness, and most of them go years before getting a diagnosis that helps them make sense of their experience. This conversation is for them.
