When your Clinical Documentation Ends up In Court: What Healthcare Providers Need to Know with Dr. Pankti Fadia In Part 2 of our conversation with Dr. Pankti Fadia, DC, MBA, we continue exploring what happens when clinical care intersects with the legal system. After discussing personal injury documentation and causation in Part 1, this episode moves deeper into subpoenas, affidavits, depositions, trial testimony, expert witness credibility, and ethical considerations for chiropractors and healthcare providers working in the personal injury space. Dr. Fadia explains what providers should know when records are requested, how to approach deposition or courtroom testimony, and why confidence, preparation, and clear communication matter when your clinical decisions are being questioned. This episode also highlights an important reminder: your role is not to defend the patient’s entire legal case. Your role is to explain your care, support your documentation, stay within your scope, and communicate your clinical reasoning clearly. Key Themes in Today’s Episode: * What to know when you receive a subpoena or records request * The difference between written questions, depositions, and trial testimony * How to prepare before giving testimony * Why providers should answer only what is asked * The importance of staying within your clinical scope * How defense attorneys may challenge credibility Disclaimer: This episode is for educational purposes only and should not be interpreted as legal advice. 🔗 RESOURCES & LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Learn more from Dr. Fadia in an upcoming session at the ALIGNED 2026 Convention here [https://tinyurl.com/ep129-aligned]. https://tinyurl.com/ep129-faktrliveFAKTR 2026 Upper Extremity [https://tinyurl.com/ep129-faktrlive] hands-on courses are now open for registration in select cities.

#127 - Healthy Aging in Practice: Gut Health, Muscle Preservation and Recovery with Dr. Robert Silverman, Part 2

Healthy Aging in Practice: Gut Health, Muscle Preservation and Recovery with Dr. Robert Silverman In this special look-back episode, we’re revisiting Part 2 of our conversation with Dr. Robert Silverman on the systems and strategies that shape long-term health, resilience, and performance. If Part 1 focused on the bigger picture of health span, inflammation, immune resilience, and the hallmarks of aging, Part 2 moves into the practical side of the conversation. Dr. Silverman digs deeper into the role of gut health, mitochondrial support, muscle preservation, lifestyle intervention, and recovery-focused strategies that can help clinicians better support patients navigating chronic inflammation, fatigue, reduced resilience, and age-related decline. In this episode, we explore why the gut remains central to immune function and recovery, how loss of muscle mass affects longevity and vitality, and why simple foundational strategies — including nutrition, lifestyle habits, and systems-based clinical thinking — still matter far more than most people realize. This is a valuable revisit for providers who want to think beyond symptom management and better understand the practical levers that support healthier aging and stronger long-term outcomes. Key Themes in Today’s Episode: * The role of gut health and dysbiosis in immune function, inflammation, and recovery * Why muscle preservation matters for health span and long-term vitality * Lifestyle and nutrition strategies that support resilience, recovery, and better aging outcomes * Dr. Silverman’s 7R framework for supporting gut health 🔗 RESOURCES & LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Learn more about the Functional Nutrition Certification Program here [https://tinyurl.com/ep157-FNC]. 🎙️ SUPPORT THE SHOW: Visit our website at faktrpodcast.com [https://tinyurl.com/ep127-site] to leave a review or comment

#126 - Optimizing Health Span: Longevity, Inflammation, and Immune Resilience with Dr. Robert Silverman

Optimizing Health Span: Longevity, Inflammation, and Immune Resilience with Dr. Robert Silverman In this special look-back episode, we’re revisiting a conversation originally released in 2023 with Dr. Robert Silverman on one of the most important topics in modern healthcare: health span. While this episode was recorded during an earlier phase of the longevity conversation, the core themes remain highly relevant today. In Part 1, Dr. Silverman breaks down the difference between lifespan and health span, why chronic disease continues to shorten quality of life for so many patients, and why clinicians need to think more broadly about the systems that influence long-term vitality, resilience, and recovery. Together, we explore the role of immune resilience, inflammation, the microbiome, mitochondrial health, fascia, vagus nerve tone, muscle mass, and metabolic signaling in healthy aging. Dr. Silverman also shares the biomarkers and clinical concepts he believes deserve more attention when evaluating chronic disease risk, biological aging, and overall patient function. This episode is a valuable revisit for providers who want to think beyond symptom management and better understand the foundations of long-term health and performance. Whether you’re hearing it for the first time or coming back to it with fresh ears, Part 1 sets the stage for a deeper conversation around what it really takes to help patients live longer — and live better. Key Themes in Today’s Episode: * The difference between lifespan and health span — and why both matter in clinical practice * Why immune resilience may be one of the most important drivers of longevity * Biomarkers Dr. Silverman watches when evaluating inflammation, metabolic health, cardiovascular risk, and gut permeability 🔗 RESOURCES & LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Learn more about the Functional Nutrition Certification Program here [https://tinyurl.com/ep126-FNC].
