ABOUT DR. BREWER
Dr. Brewer started as an Emergency Doctor. After seeing too many preventable heart attacks, he went to Johns Hopkins to learn Preventive Medicine. While there, he went on the run the post-graduate training program (residency) in Preventive Medicine. From there, he made a career of practicing and managing preventive medicine and primary care clinics. His later role in this area was Chief Medical Officer for Premise, which has close to 1,000 primary care/prevention clinics. He was also the Chief Medical Officer for MDLIVE, the second largest telemedicine company. More recently, he founded PrevMed, a heart attack, and stroke prevention clinic.
At PrevMed, we focus on heart attack, stroke, and cognitive decline. We serve patients who have already experienced an event as well as those who have not developed a diagnosis or event. Dr. Brewer provides services via telemedicine or in person if you're in the Lexington, KY area. We find a lot of undiagnosed Pre-Diabetes or Insulin Resistance. Treating unrecognized risk factors like Pre-Diabetes allows reduction of risk and prevention of disease.

Sleep is a major contributor to aging and death. Sleep disturbance is a known risk factor for diabetes, which is in turn the #1 cause of cardiovascular inflammation, heart attack, stroke and dementia. Is declining sleep really the key to aging?
We cover the case of Micheal Corke, a New Lexon High School music teacher. He died from insomnia. Fatal Familial Insomnia is a prin-related, genetic cause of death. Onset is without trigger, in the 30s or 40s, and takes about 2 years to kill. It's autosomal dominant. The first patient (who developed the mutation at location p13of the 20th chromosome) was a Venetian physician. He died in 1765. On autopsy, the thalamus, hypothalamus and pituitary of the brains of these patients is so full of holes, it looks like Swiss cheese.
Lack of sleep is a such a well known cause of train and car wrecks that there is a phrase for it, "asleep at the switch" or "asleep at the wheel".
It is rare for any of us to be touched by Fatal Familial Insomnia. But the vast majority of us are touched by diabetes in our aging process. Read the book WHY WE SLEEP by Matthew Walker
