David Jetmore on Health
January 27, 2026
In this first conversation, David reflects on a lifetime in medicine, from his early ideals as a young doctor to the realities of practicing healthcare over decades. We talk about what society misunderstands about health, what still matters most, and what technology has given us… and quietly taken away.
“I liked it better when the patient was looking at my face and I was looking at his. And we were reading each other’s truths. You know, that’s truly the art of medicine. (David, 34:08)
