What if your doctor could catch health problems while your body is still whispering instead of waiting until it’s shouting?
In this episode of Take Charge with HELPcare, founder Lee Aase and co‑host Dan Hinmon introduce Dr. Dawn Jacobson, the newest physician joining HELPcare Clinic Rochester on January 6.
Dr. Jacobson is board certified in preventive medicine and integrative and functional medicine. She blends advanced lab testing, lifestyle medicine, and a body–mind–spirit perspective to help patients prevent and even reverse chronic disease before it fully takes hold.
You’ll hear Dr. Jacobson explain:
- What integrative and functional medicine actually are, in plain language
- How she uses expanded lab panels (often 70+ markers) to see what’s happening at the cellular level
- What she calls the body’s “whispers” – subtle symptoms many people are told to ignore – and how she investigates them
- The four types of data she uses to guide care: labs, your daily habits, how you feel, and current medical evidence
- Why gut health, toxins, infections, hormones and lifestyle can all drive issues like fatigue, skin problems, joint pain, mood changes and more
- Her training in the Bredesen Protocol for dementia and Alzheimer’s prevention, and practical steps to start protecting your brain now
- How HELPcare Clinic’s direct primary care membership model gives her the time and flexibility to do deep preventive, root‑cause work
Dr. Jacobson will provide specialty integrative and functional medicine visits at HELPcare Clinic Rochester, building on the extensive lab testing already included in HELPcare Premier membership.
If you’ve ever been told “your labs are normal” but you still don’t feel well, or you’re worried about long‑term brain health and dementia risk, this conversation will give you a hopeful, science‑based path to start taking charge.
