Nuggets of Wisdom
"Every health practitioner out there can do proactive wellness. They know how to eat right, they know how to detox, they know how to exercise."
- Dr. Webb
"I have a big purpose in disrupting healthcare in this country. Because not everyone needs health insurance; everyone needs knowledge, everyone needs to be empowered, health insurance never has been the fix, it never will be the fix. It's just a distraction in politics."
- Dr. Webb
"If we haven't taken the time and invested the time, money and effort into understanding that your practice is a business and if you haven't taken the time to invest in that, there are consequences. Just because you have a diploma does not give you a right to have a successful practice."
- Dr. Webb
"The number one pain point on both sides what we have to get through and what they have to get through is what's between their ears."
- Dr. Webb
"The last thing I need is a bad apple among our clients, and the last thing you need as a doctor is a bad apple in your waiting room."
- Dr. Webb
"The ethical thing to do when someone comes in is you've got to determine what they see as that destination. You can't simply identify symptoms and eliminating those symptoms as the goal."
- Dr. Webb
