Health By Numbers™
Measuring and Modifying the Metrics that Matter
The Dr. Martha Model of Medicine is a thorough, methodical approach that focuses on essential health metrics to provide a clear, data-driven understanding of your current health status and your future health trajectory.
Rooted in “health numeracy,” this model distills complex health information into a user-friendly “health-by-numbers” format, similar to a color-by-numbers approach. This simplified Health by Numbers format brings clarity to your health story and makes it easy to track changes in your health over time.
Dr. Martha’s goal in applying her novel Health by Numbers approach is to empower people to better understand and manage their own health proactively. With knowledge of your own key biomarkers, biometrics, and risk factors, you can take control of your health and make informed, impactful decisions.
Operating at the synergistic nexus of preventive care, weight management, and longevity, Dr. Martha will use her unique Health by Numbers approach to guide you through a comprehensive, actionable treatment plan. From weight loss to mystery symptoms and complex cases, experience the difference of a holistic health transformation that works effectively because it addresses the metrics that count the most for you.
Health Numeracy
The Key to Empowered Self-Care
Health numeracy is the ability to understand, evaluate, and apply numeric information related to one's health. It goes beyond basic health literacy, empowering individuals to be active partners in their own care by:
Identify Key Metrics
Recognize which numbers (e.g., blood pressure, cholesterol, body composition) provide meaningful insights into your overall wellbeing and what your personal targets should be for optimal health.
Interpret Data Effectively
Learn what these metrics mean, how each of them impacts your health, and how to track them over time to understand your current health status and future trajectory.
Take Informed Action
Use this knowledge to improve your numbers and transform your health. This allows you to track your own progress and participate in shared decision making with your doctors, troubleshoot challenges, and sustain meaningful change.
By developing strong health numeracy skills, our patients become active partners in their own care, equipped to track their own progress, participate more effectively in shared decision-making with their doctors, troubleshoot challenges, and sustain meaningful change.
