A Functional & Preventative Medicine Lens
Joseph Radich, PA-C approaches medicine through a functional and preventative lens, one that looks beyond symptoms to uncover the root causes of imbalance. His goal is not to simply manage disease but to optimize health before dysfunction begins. Through personalized protocols, advanced diagnostics, and evidence-based therapies, Joseph empowers patients to take an active role in their long-term wellbeing.
The Problem with the Current System
The traditional medical system is reactive, fragmented, and designed to serve institutions—not individuals. It prioritizes efficiency over connection, symptom suppression over investigation, and insurance approval over clinical intuition. Joseph saw this firsthand early in his career, and it became clear: he couldn’t deliver the kind of care patients deserved within that framework. So, he built his own.
Why Autonomy in Medicine Matters
Autonomy is the cornerstone of Joseph’s philosophy for both providers and patients. When providers are free from restrictive insurance models, they can think critically, personalize care, and treat root causes. When patients are given time, education, and transparency, they can make empowered decisions about their health. Restoring autonomy is about restoring trust, choice, and clarity in a system that has long lacked all three.
Patient-Centered & Provider-Driven Care
Joseph believes that great medicine begins with great relationships. He prioritizes the time he spends listening to his patients, understanding their concerns, goals, and lifestyle before making any clinical decisions. He also trains other providers to do the same because healthcare should never feel rushed, transactional, or disconnected. When providers are given the tools and freedom to lead, and patients are treated as partners, everything changes.
In His Words
What is a piece of advice that’s shaped the way you do business?
“Don’t follow the industry—redefine it.”
That mindset has guided every major decision I’ve made. In healthcare, it’s easy to get stuck doing things the way they’ve always been done. But I’ve learned that real progress happens when you challenge outdated systems and aren’t afraid to innovate, even if it means going against the grain. That is the foundation that built my companies, R3 Health and MedHouse.
What is the one thing you refuse to compromise on, no matter what?
The quality of care that I deliver as a medical practitioner.
No matter how fast my companies grow or how many new ideas are implemented, every decision is filtered through one question: “Is this what’s best for the patient?” If the answer is no, we don’t do it. Excellence in care isn’t optional, it’s the standard.
