Are you concerned about how the healthcare system influences your treatment? We examine the pressures doctors face today.

Many patients worry that doctor incentives are shifting away from patient care. We look at the systemic pressures caused by insurance companies, which often force providers to manage high patient volumes just to keep their practices open. This environment can make it difficult for doctors to focus on the individual needs of those sitting in the exam room.

We also discuss the potential influence of pharmaceutical companies on modern medical practice. By questioning these structures, we explore the benefits of a patient-centered model where care is prioritized above administrative metrics. If you are looking for a doctor who is paid directly by their patients, this discussion highlights why that approach may lead to more transparent and effective medical outcomes.

Subscribe for weekly insights on navigating the complexities of autoimmune care, and let me know in the comments if you have experienced these pressures in your own medical journey.

What happens when rheumatoid arthritis takes away the life you thought you would always have?

In this powerful patient story, Dr. Isabelle Amigues sits down with Palmy, a former professional long-distance triathlete, to talk about her journey with severe rheumatoid arthritis, pregnancy, postpartum symptoms, treatment, remission, and finding her way back to the life she loves.

Before her diagnosis, Palmy was a professional triathlete who had spent years training and competing at a high level. After having her baby, she began experiencing increasing joint pain and inflammation in her knees, wrists, fingers, hands, and other areas of her body.

Simple things became difficult—including exercising, walking, opening jars, getting dressed, and even holding and caring for her baby.

After seeing several doctors, Palmy recalls being told that rheumatoid arthritis was something she would simply have to live with. By the time she found Dr. Isabelle Amigues, she was in severe pain and had lost hope that she could return to her normal life.

But her story didn't end there.

Through treatment and a renewed sense of hope, Palmy began working toward remission. Eventually, she returned to running and triathlon—and later completed an Olympic-distance triathlon with a personal record that beat her time from roughly ten years earlier.
