Joel Theisen is not a fan of the word "care," but that's not because he doesn't have a lot of it. As an RN, he saw firsthand the shortcomings of the healthcare system in the United States, and that's why he's on a mission with his company, Lifespark, to reimagine it.
Referring to Lifespark as the "anti-care" company, Joel instead chooses to laser focus on health and wellbeing. In other words, trying to keep people "off care." Hear how he's working to achieve that goal in the latest episode of The Medical Alley Podcast.Send us a message!
