Ep. 313: Dr. Jami Dulaney - This Cardiologist Stopped Doing Medicine the Old Way

What happens when a seasoned cardiologist realizes that prescriptions and procedures aren’t enough?

You get Dr. Jami Dulaney—a board-certified cardiologist who transformed her practice (and personal life) by embracing plant-based nutrition and lifestyle medicine.

Motivated by her own family history of heart disease and a desire to do more than simply manage symptoms, Dr. Dulaney shares her transformative journey from practicing traditional cardiology to building a lifestyle medicine practice that focuses on the healing power of whole food, plant-based nutrition and movement.

You'll hear how she made this bold shift in her practice after seeing firsthand how food can reverse chronic conditions like heart disease and type 2 diabetes. She also opens up about her personal evolution from golfer to runner, including her love of endurance running and how she stays motivated to live plantstrong.

Dr. Dulaney’s memberships include an annual comprehensive physical exam that incorporates screening and diagnostic tests, and focuses on nutrition, fitness and exercise, lifestyle management, mental wellness, stress management, and chronic disease management. The result is a customized wellness plan to guide you in achieving and maintaining optimum health and disease prevention.

Together, Rip and Dr. Dulaney explore:

Why she left the “pill for every ill” model behind
How lifestyle medicine is reversing chronic disease in her patients
Why oils—even so-called “healthy” ones—have no place in a heart-healthy diet
The power of community and education in sustaining health changes
Her training mindset as a runner and the connection between physical and mental health
How doctors can (and should) create space for deeper, more meaningful patient care

Dr. Dulaney proves that it’s never too late to rewrite the script—whether in your medical practice or your own life. This episode is a powerful reminder that food is medicine, and the future of healthcare starts with prevention, not prescriptions.
