There are many ways to solve problems. But there is beauty and clarity in finding the best solution, and I believe it’s worth spending the the extra mental energy to achieve this. Can’t tell you how, when or why I think this way, but Steve Jobs captured this concept when he said: “When you first […]
Which came first, the chicken or the egg? This ancient paradox filled the minds of the great philosophers Aristotle, Plutarch, Macrobius and Anaximander who all considered it a “great and weighty” problem. Not sure what else was going on back then, but even 2000 years later, it has not been satisfactorily solved. A Newer Paradox […]
Did you think that 2017 was a wild year? Me too. In so many ways, the improbable became reality. And, I have to admit, this includes science: It was a breathtaking year for epigenetics research. If you recall, epigenetics is the study of how our genes are switched on and off and is a field […]
Have to say, I’m quite proud of my Turek Clinic staff. This year was a busy one, full of the stuff of life. Three of my beloved staff left for medical school or to become physician’s assistants or nurse practitioners. I felt like I was back in academics training and inspiring them to do greater […]
The Case of the Year is an actual patient of The Turek Clinic. Ever feel that you know something before you actually know it? Call it premonition, intuition, hunch, instinct or just plain “gut” feeling. Powerful stuff. Especially when we combine the right brain’s “gut” with the left brain’s rationality to weigh choices and act. […]
Some wines cellar well and some don’t. Which ones do you keep and which do you drink? There aren’t hard and fast rules here. Just know that 99% of wines should be drunk immediately as only 1% of wines age well. One of the oldest wines every drunk was from a 1200-year old winery in […]
Evaluating men for infertility is a really a slice of the same pie. It appears complex but it doesn’t have to be. Is infertility frustrating? For sure. You’re both young, you’re both healthy, your timing is good, and things feel right. So why the hell isn’t it happening? Take a moment to breath and realize […]
How about a holiday gift for her that keeps on giving? Not just a wrapped box that leads to one happy ending, but a present that produces endless happy endings. Mind you, we’re not talking about reusable batteries, a gym membership or NetFlix subscription. And for those minds in the gutter, we’re not talking about […]
What’s a great way to get health information about men? Why wearables, of course. In 2016, there were 325 million wearable devices in the world. That’s “big data” territory by any measure. But have wearables actually improved the health of men? In a word, no. Or not yet anyway. Stay Home Medicine But there’s a 2.0 […]
H On Target Movember got it just right this year with their theme: “Stopping men dying too young.” Focused on testicular cancer, prostate cancer, mental health and male suicide, Movember has laudable goals of reducing death due to these conditions by 25-50% by 2030. Just assume it’s possible and make a plan, and they have. […]
