About
Flipping the Script
Forget the prescription pad. What works for you? What can we all learn from each other and our individual health journeys? How can we “flip the script” on traditional approaches to health? Write about your journey to health, experiences in medicine, or anything in between.
Note from the editor

Health is individual and there is no prescription for everyone. We want to show personal health journeys, the insight you have gained as you made positive changes in your life, or even how the traditional medical system failed you. How did you “flip the script” in your own life? If you want to write, please email me julbarkan@gmail.com with subject “writing for Flipping the Script”
