Welcome To My Blog
Here I share my observations from almost 30 years of medical practice and 50 years of life experience!
I’ve noticed those who make healthy choices have fewer physical and mental health problems. As a result, they also tend to look younger and lead happier, more productive lives. I focus on health and wellbeing, sharing my tips on how to strike a healthier balance. Whatever challenges you face, looking after yourself will help you deal with what life throws at you ... and look and feel amazing in the process!
