Wake up- train at Wolf Fitness at 5:30am.

Home- check phone and see a few worried patients in my text messages- one thinks she should go to an ER or urgent care for skin infection- not necessary- I address those, call in some meds and schedule a sick kid later as an add on .

Breakfast and practice tennis 10am.

Back home 11:30. Logan invoicing patients for our Labcorp bill- some payments bouncing back.

Check phone- there is a panic patient in the texts- she lacerated her finger wondering if she should go to an ER/urgent care- again not necessary I say I will see them at office in 30 minutes.

Shower/pack lunch and rush to office.

Suture wound (no, no antibiotics necessary for a simple laceration when you have a primary who can follow up via text pictures).

First scheduled visit in office: iron deficient anemia in female (common) prescribe iron infusion in office with our nurse.

Espresso break with Iron DPC team- discuss case studies. Text some patients back- some are coming to pick up medicines.

2- office follow up: diabetic follow up- doing well, HRT, building muscle and reducing medication requirements.

3- telemed: fatigue-optimized on HRT wants to restart NAD as it has worked well in past.

Finished last visit with some time to spare which was lucky as some patients walk in- dispense a b12 vial for home injections. Another who was just going to pick up a peptide becomes a full visit due to a lot of questions.

4- lab follow up- labs almost optimized- still fatigued and iron deficient symptoms- ordered another iron infusion.

5- kid with flu with GI symptoms and fatigue. Just needs electrolytes and gut peptides.

Finished for the day it's 4pm. Each follow up is booked for 30-40 minutes. Have time to finally eat.

Office maintenance- I sweep up dust and debris from a handyman who was installing a wall monitor in Jason's office.

Edit podcasts. Manage emails and invoices- have to pay pharmacies for meds shipped to patients.

Sauna for 20 minutes.

Home for dinner.

7:30pm log in to Dr. Halasa's CDPM monday meeting. Discuss mechanism of diseases with them and Dr. Quinn speaks on Myokine Release from Skeletel Muscle.
