He illustrates this approach by sharing his own customized dietary and health regimen, and stresses the importance of collaborative patient-doctor partnerships that focus on enhancing overall physical capabilities and longevity, rather than mere symptom management. Additionally, Dr. Dawson explores evolving perspectives in women's health, particularly focusing on hormone replacement therapy, and stresses the necessity for updated research and personalized medical approaches.
