Episode 41

In this episode of the Prime Health Podcast, Dr. Derek Baron interviews Dr. Adelola Ashaye, board-certified family and lifestyle medicine physician and founder of InTouch Primary Care in Sugar Land, Texas. After nearly a decade in traditional healthcare, Dr. Ashaye saw firsthand how preventable conditions spiral into devastating complications — and made it her mission to offer something different: longer visits, direct access, and truly personalized whole-person care.

Key Takeaways:

  • Prevention Over Management: A patient she cared for in residency had gone from borderline pre-diabetes to complicated, debilitating disease over 11 years. That moment crystallized Dr. Ashaye’s passion — catching health issues early when they’re still easy to reverse is everything.
  • The Membership Model Advantage: By removing insurance constraints and offering extended visits, Dr. Ashaye gives patients something rare in modern medicine — time. More time means better listening, deeper understanding, and faster results.
  • Listening Is a Clinical Tool: Dr. Ashaye has had patients reveal vital health information years into their care — simply because no one had ever taken the time to ask. Listening is not a soft skill; it’s a diagnostic one.
  • Set a Health Goal and Get 1% Better Every Day: Her top advice — know what you want for your health, be willing to pay the price to get there, and challenge yourself to improve just a little more each day. Small, consistent progress adds up to transformation.
  • Prime Health Is Thriving, Not Just Surviving: Dr. Ashaye defines prime health as your body, mind, and spirit all working at their best — full of energy, full of life, and truly thriving beyond the absence of illness.
