The Checkup with Doctor Mike · She Doesn't Want To Cure Her Blindness | Molly Burke · 12 Oct 2025 podcast

So diabetes, as an example, is pathology of how your body processes sugar.

Now, if a patient comes to my office and says, doctor, I want to get my blood work.

We do the blood work.

We find out that they have diabetes.

I explain to them the treatment for diabetes.

I explain the reason why we should treat diabetes because it raises the risk of heart attack, stroke.

Because I function under the assumption that they're here to see me as a doctor, that they want diabetes.

to prolong their life, improve their quality of life.

That's kind of my predisposition as a physician.

What about, again, playing devil's advocate here, the fact that you're at a higher risk for injury, like you had walking off that five-foot stage and having a fall?

Does that create some sort of risk for you that you might need to think about or no?

Right, but I do have patients who tell me people have heart attacks all the time, so I smoke.

People have heart attacks, not that big of a deal.

So it's like we're trying to figure out the risk tolerance.

So that's like your risk reduction.

Got it.

Makes sense.

What's the plan for the rest of the journey?

Where do you want to go from here?

That's awesome.
