you today morning doc I'm okay okay I guess just here for my regular checkup great let's get started any concerns or symptoms you want to discuss actually yeah I've been having some abdominal pain and cramping lately I see how often does that happen it varies but I've noticed it happens more when I eat certain foods plus I've been bloated gassy and sometimes I either have diarrhea or constipation it's frustrating that does sound uncomfortable have you noticed any patterns with your diet yeah I think certain things like Dairy and spicy foods might trigger it but I'm

not sure it sounds like you might be dealing with irritable bowel syndrome or IBS let's talk about some dietary changes that could help IBS what does that mean for me it means we need to pay attention to what you're eating reducing high fat foods increasing fiber gradually and keeping a food diary can help identify triggers sounds manageable what about medication I'm going to prescribe you a medication that can help with the cramps and discomfort it should ease your Sy symptoms a bit thanks Doc I appreciate it of course let's schedule a followup in a month

to see how you're doing with the changes sounds good I'll do my best that's the spirit take care John you too doc thanks again at the dentist [Music] let's take a look at your x-rays it looks like you have some overcrowding and a bit of misalignment I recommend braces to help straighten everything out braces really I thought I was too old for that not at all it's quite common for adults to get braces we have several options you can choose from like what we have traditional metal braces ceramic braces and and even clear aligners like

invisaline hm what's the difference in terms of visibility well metal braces are the most visible but they're very effective ceramic braces blend in more with your teeth so they're less noticeable invisaline is completely clear but it requires more discipline to wear them for the recommended hours gotcha what about the price the metal brace cost $3,000 the ceramic brace is a bit more around $4,000 invisaline is around $4,500 but it varies based on your treatment plan okay I see I think I prefer the ceramic braces since I want something less noticeable great choice they'll work well

is the same on all parts of the head H I've never tried a buzz cut what's a crew cut like a crew cut is short on the sides and back with a bit more length on top it's clean and easy to manage sounds good and what about the fade a fade Gra gradually shortens the hair from top to bottom creating a nice blend I like the sound of that but I think I want something really low maintenance then I'd recommend the buzz cut super low maintenance and it looks sharp plus it's a good look for

a fresh start you know what let's do the buzz cut and I definitely need that shave too you got it I'll make you look sharp let's get started than thanks man I've been needing this no problem you're in good hands let's make you look fresh at the [Music] hospital hey there what brings you in today are you okay uh well my hand feels like it's been through a blender but other than that I guess I'm okay let's take a look at that hand of yours what happened so I was trying to fix this leaky tap

that choice we could pair it with some white and green pillows that sounds perfect what about a coffee table yes a round one would be nice for conversations and maybe a few plants around great idea a couple of tall potted plants behind the sofa would really liven up the space speaking of which how do you feel about wall art yes some abstract pieces would be great they could go between the plants perfect abstract art would really add some character do you have any thoughts on what kind of rug you might want I was thinking something

plush and neutral like a cream or light gray that's a great choice and what about some lighting a nice floor lamp next to the sectional could create a warm glow in the evenings I love that idea now what about a TV set do you have a specific spot in mind for it I was thinking of putting it on that wall opposite the sofa it would be perfect for movie Nights perfect we could even add some shelves for books or decor items around it I can't wait to see it all come [Music] together renting an apartment
