Dr. Brian Lenzkes is intelligent, humble, and inspiring. He’s a wonderful role model for physicians, and is bullish on sharing his framework for patient care with other doctors.
Dr. Lenzkes, who was overweight and struggling with his own health issues, transformed his health by adopting a low-carb lifestyle three years ago. Now, he does the same for hundreds of patients in his practice and thousands of listeners who tune into his Low Carb MD podcast.
Dr. Lenzkes believes that, as doctors, we need to put our egos aside and do our best for our patients. And that includes acknowledging the power of low-carb lifestyles to improve or even reverse some chronic conditions like type 2 diabetes.
