Welcome to the Essence of Health Tea Time Podcast!

I am your host, Dr. Shayla Toombs-Withers.

As a double board certified Family and Obesity Medicine Physician, with over 12 years of experience in medicine; I teach motivated individuals how to achieve their desired quality of life while preventing and reversing chronic diseases.

Tea time is the time where we discuss important topics, we share what’s on our mind, and we learn about how we can improve our health and our lives.

As a practicing physician my goal is to provide a more holistic level of care that focuses on the factors contributing to disease and working on removing those obstacles to help individuals improve, prevent, and reverse chronic disease.

With that in mind, I bring to you Tea Time so that I can spill the tea on all things health, wellness, and nutrition related.
