The Four Patient Types Who Fall Through the Cracks – and Why That Should Concern Us
What if the problem isn’t that people are sick — but that they’re not being seen? In this new article, I share the four types of patients we see often at Ageless by Design — all overlooked in different ways:
The Grey Patient whose bloods are “normal” but life is far from optimal
The Elderly whose symptoms are written off as “just aging”
The Chronically Diagnosed whose new symptoms are blamed on old labels
The Health Hacker trying to optimise, but lost in noise without a clinical map
These individuals are not broken, but they are underserved — caught between symptoms and pathology, without a clear place to turn.
We’re not here to replace medicine. We respect it deeply. But medicine doesn’t have all the answers — and it was never meant to.
Sometimes we’re simply looking for help in the wrong place.
