ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Dr. Louise introduces her podcast Ask Dr. Louise and interviews longtime friend and collaborator Dr. James Flowers, CEO of J. Flowers Health Institute in Houston, Texas. They recount meeting in Las Vegas and discuss why their work aligns: an academic, research-driven, precision-based approach that prioritizes deep empathy, selectivity with complex cases, and spending hours with patients rather than relying on time-limited group formats. Flowers explains the Institute’s comprehensive 360-degree diagnostic evaluation, which he describes as a “living MRI” to pinpoint root causes and prevent relapse, emphasizing the need to rule out medical issues. He shares cases where imaging revealed a pituitary tumor and a brain worm misdiagnosed as psychiatric illness. Flowers and Louise discuss trauma, including Flowers’ childhood losses and his “superpower” of compartmentalization, and he advises families to seek comprehensive, well-evaluated treatment beyond what is found via online ads.
