Episode notes
How The Doctor's Kitchen Began
- Rupy Aujla began The Doctor's Kitchen by filming recipes and explaining the clinical research behind ingredients while working as an emergency doctor in Sydney.
- He used the project to give patients a time-saving, trusted resource he could signpost from brief GP consultations.
Ten-Minute Consultations Need Supplementary Tools
- Short GP consultations constrain lifestyle medicine, so clinicians must create signposts and trusted external tools.
- Empowering patients to do work between visits shifts responsibility and improves outcomes.
Signpost Patients To Ongoing Resources
- Use trusted online resources to extend brief GP consultations and give patients 'homework' to take control of their conditions.
- Signpost patients to accessible content so the consultation becomes a starting point, not the whole intervention.
