The Alice L. Walton School of Medicine is trying a new approach to medical education.

Alice Walton wants her school’s graduates to keep patients healthy by practicing something that most doctors today don’t prioritize: preventive medicine and whole-health principles, which involve caring for (and not just treating) the entire person and all of the factors—from their mental health to their living conditions and lifestyle choices—that contribute to wellbeing.

Now normally that would sound great, but RFK Jr. has made me suspicious of such rhetoric.

I also have a sneaking suspicion that even if the curriculum is a runaway success, the "comprehensive whole-health care" will be unobtanium for anyone below a certain income threshold.

Free healthcare, free bi yearly whole body scans, or even free education would do exponentially more than what the worlds richest woman is willing to do. She is an American oligarch. She is creating a new school instead of helping create policy that would vastly improve healthcare.

With all due respect, the world needs improved approaches to education AND improved policy. Criticizing a person for helping out in one way but not focusing on helping out in your preferred way does not seem ideal.

She is an oligarch. Privatised education is what the rich want.

What would really help would be if they were forced to do a root cause analysis to make sure they were fixing the disease instead of just passing patients with some medicine to make the symptoms go away. Granted, if it's really bad eventually a new and worse symptom will come up and they'll maybe fix the underlying problem, but at that time we already have consequences of the disease and the medicine.
