Gresham Harkless 00:38

Hello, hello, hello. This is Gresh from the I AM CEO Podcast and I have a very special guest on the show today. I have Dr. Rahi of doctorrahi.com and that's DOCTORRAHI.com So doctorrahi.com spelled out. Dr. Rahi is also gonna have you on the show

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 00:55

Hi, thank you for having me.

Gresham Harkless 00:57

No problem, super excited to have you on. And what I want to do is just read a little bit more about Dr. Rahi so you can hear about all the awesome things that she's doing.

She is a medical doctor specializing in hormones, integrative medicine and aesthetics. Medical school at Ross University, residency in internal medicine at University of Southern California USC, and a fellowship in integrative medicine from the University of Arizona. Located in Santa Monica, California, her vision is for health and wellness is beauty and health from the inside out. Dr. Rahi, are you ready to speak to the I AM CEO community?

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 01:31

Yes, I am.

[restrict paid=”true”]

Gresham Harkless 01:32

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. So the first question I had was to hear a little bit more about your CEO story and what led you to start your business.

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 01:39

I really enjoy integrative medicine and aesthetics and hormones. And it's kind of, it's more focused on, this area of medicine is more focused on disease prevention and health maintenance, as opposed to actually treating the disease once you get it.

And generally speaking, a lot of these services are not covered by insurance companies. So that's the one reason I was able to start my own business. It's a cash only business at this time.

The other thing was when I was in residency, I noticed that a lot of patients that I would see had really no sort of… they had no sort of concept of where their health was.

And every time I would see them, they'd come into the clinic or they'd come into the hospital.

They would get sicker and sicker and rarely would you see somebody actually improving. And so a lot of the traditional ways that we're taught as doctors is how to treat illness.

It's not really focused on Preventing disease and really trying to help people live their optimal selves so the more I learned about the more the more I learned about the wellness area, the wellness side of medicine.

I decided that there was really no practice out there for me to join that would accommodate me practicing that type of medicine. So I had to basically start my own business.

Gresham Harkless 03:01

Oh, that's awesome.

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 03:02

So that I could focus on helping people live optimally.

Gresham Harkless 03:06

That's pretty awesome. And that's in true entrepreneurial form. It kind of seems like sometimes when there's not that thing or that business or whatever that has already been built.

And you see that there's an issue, you see a way to solve that problem, but you don't see that there's a way out there to do that. You have to kind of create that yourself and kind of sound like.

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 03:22

Yeah, exactly. And I also like the ability to work and create on my own. Whereas if you join a practice, you're kind of confined within that practices, current active policies and procedures and just how they run things.

And so I'm able to sort of practice medicine the way I think is best for the patient without having other people hovering over me and telling me what to do.

Gresham Harkless 03:50

Yeah, And I know that a lot of it seems like in the health industry especially a lot of it is more defensive where like you say you're treating an illness rather than being on the offensive and actually trying to prevent the illness from even occurring? Is that correct?

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 04:02

That's the ultimate goal. That's the ultimate goal with every patient is to focus on disease prevention, optimal living so that you're the healthiest that you can be at the current age and current situation that you're in.

Gresham Harkless 04:16

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. And now I wanted to hear a little bit more, I know you touched on it a little bit on how you're helping to serve these clients.

So could you tell us a little bit about some of the things that you're doing to kind of help support these clients that you're working with?

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 04:27

Sure, I do a lot of health counseling, sort of what you would be a dietitian for, but I'd like to think that I have more tools to sort of allow patients to get a better understanding of what's going on.

I can check their labs or hormones. I do specialized micro-nutrient testing to see if there's any specific deficiencies.

A lot of times people are taking a bunch of different vitamins and they don't know why they're taking everything.

They don't know if they need specifically a lot more magnesium or if they should be on, for example, biotin, just different things that you can be deficient in.

I can test that and then I can tailor a treatment plan that for patients sort of focusing on how they can potentially reverse whatever disease they have or maintain and not progress that disease or help prevent the start of a new type of disease.

And so I, look at, I do a very thorough history looking at basically everything that's happened in the past from day one and seeing how that can impact how you are living today.

And so I offer hormone therapy for both men and women. I offer vitamin injections and the oxidant injections.

I also do the aesthetic side where I offer a very natural approach to beauty because I believe that, it can be healthy and beautiful on the inside and also express that on the outside too.

And it doesn't have to be excessive. It could be very subtle. So right now those are the main services that I'm offering.

Gresham Harkless 06:00

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. It kind of sounds like it's definitely, rooted in like the foundation, I guess, from what you're saying, because you said you even look from the very beginning of.

I guess, all the issues that a person might have or how that might have built up until what they might be, what might be the symptoms, I guess, today.

So it's kind of important to kind of get an idea of the full range of everything that somebody's gone through and maybe struggled with or working through.

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 06:23

Yeah, exactly.

Gresham Harkless 06:24

Awesome, awesome, awesome. And now I wanted to ask you for what I call your secret sauce.

And this could be kind of like what you feel kind of distinguishes you or your organization, but do you have an example of a secret sauce you can share with us?

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 06:36

Well, I mean, if I was going to compare the experience that you would get if you came to see me versus if you went to see another doctor, I like to spend time with my patients.

I will spend anywhere from like 30 minutes to an hour, sometimes even longer with a client. I like to develop good relationships with my clients where I sort of get to know about their lives.

I know about their personal lives, their social, their work lives. And I think that's really important when you're treating a patient because it's important to really get to know them because you're able to understand them better.

That is… I've done the sort of fast medicine where you work in the urgent care or like, sometimes when you're in the hospital, you just don't really have time to really focus and spend time with the patient and you spend like 10 to 15 minutes.

What can you get from like a 10 to 15 minute appointment versus if your doctor really gets to know you over a longer period of time.

And I think that is the key to a successful physician relationship. And I think that would be the key to a successful integrative medicine practice is really developing a good relationship between the doctor and the patient.

Gresham Harkless 07:48

That makes perfect sense. And I imagine too that, like you said, in like 10 minutes you probably can't figure out exactly what someone might be going through.

But when you have that relationship, you are able to ask those questions that actually delve a little bit deeper.

Sometimes you might find underlying, I don't wanna say issues, but maybe things that people may not have noticed if they just would have looked for 10 minutes or so. Is that correct?

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 08:06

Yeah, I think so. And it also helps people feel more comfortable around you as well. And they know that you're listening and you care. And so maybe you'll get more information from them.

Gresham Harkless 08:17

Right. That makes perfect sense. And now I wanted to switch gears a little bit and ask you for what I call a CEO hack.

And this might be an app, a book or a habit that you have, but it's something that makes you more effective and efficient as an entrepreneur or business owner.

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 08:31

Yeah. I think what keeps me going every single day is I'm very athletic. I work out. I try to work out almost every single day. Nice.

And I have complete control over my diet, which has been, you know, as I keep going every day, I have more and more control.

I feel like those two things really helped me keep myself sort of grounded so that I could grow the business as well.

Gresham Harkless 08:55

Yeah, that makes sense. I know that that's always my go-to. I try to go to the gym just to kind of release any tension or any stress or anything. Yeah.

And then trying to make sure that you're putting the right things in your body, you're eating the right things as well too.

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 09:09

Right. So important. And a lot of people don't know that. And a lot of people don't know that.

And I'm here to educate. The other thing is mixing up the workouts. I combine yoga with a lot of weight bearing exercises.

So I don't just pick to one. I have like a different array of exercises for different purposes.

Gresham Harkless 09:29

Okay, Okay. Is there any reason behind that? Why you do different types of exercises?

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 09:33

It's good for your body, but it's also good for your mind. So, the weight bearing exercises help you with the weight loss and building up muscle strength and then, more yoga, more helping you connect your mind to your body and more spiritual spirituality.

Gresham Harkless 09:47

Okay. Okay. That makes sense. Yeah. That's always something, especially as a CEO or pretty much anybody, you need to make sure that vary your workouts and vary the types of workouts so that you can have those different results. It sounds like.

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 09:57

Yes.

Gresham Harkless 09:58

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. And now I wanted to ask you for what I call a CEO nugget. And this might be a word of wisdom or piece of advice, or if you can hop into a time machine, what would you tell your younger business self?

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 10:09

To just be open to possibilities. I mean, I think I am in the right place where I'm supposed to be right now.

So I wouldn't really change anything, but just continue what I'm doing and just try to learn every day as you go, whether it's working in a hospital or working in a clinic or working in my own clinic.

Just be open-minded, be open to possibilities and try to learn as much as you can every single day.

Gresham Harkless 10:37

I love that. I love that. And it's definitely important to make sure that you are doing that so that you can continue to stay ahead of the curve.

But it all also sounds like you're already ahead of the curve in a lot of ways just because of the business you built, how you're starting to structure it. So I definitely appreciate that.

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 10:51

Thank you.

Gresham Harkless 10:52

You're welcome. And now I wanted to ask you my absolute favorite question which is the definition for what it means to be a CEO.

We're hoping to have different quote-unquote CEOs on this show to look at entrepreneurship, what it means to be a business owner. So I wanted to ask you Dr. Rahi, what does being a CEO mean to you?

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 11:06

Oh, what it means to me is that I'm able to really do what I love every day and allow others to participate in that as well.

So, I allow my patients are able to participate in allowing me to do what I love and to be able to educate myself and grow in ways that interest me.

Gresham Harkless 11:29

I like it. I like it. I appreciate that. And yeah, it's always a good reminder to make sure that especially when you're a CEO, entrepreneur, and business owner, you're always trying to move ahead and grow.

So to make sure that you are, of course, having the opportunity to do that is definitely one of the benefits and perks of being the CEO.

So Dr. Rahi, I truly appreciate your time. What I wanted to do is pass you the mic, so to speak, to see if there's anything additional you want to let our readers and our listeners know, and then also how best they can get in touch with you.

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 11:54

Best way to get in touch with me is to email me, doctorrahimd@gmail.com. You can also go to my website, which you mentioned earlier.

And then I also have the social media, the Instagram, which is doctorrahimd. Again, all spelled out, Twitter and Facebook.

And the last thing I guess I would want to say is I would urge anyone listening to really, try to see if there's an integrative practitioner out where they live because Integrated medicine is the future of medicine.

And I think that everyone should sort of, at least see an integrated practitioner one to try to figure out how they can live their optimal best at their current age and their current situation as it's possible for everyone.

Gresham Harkless 12:44

Yeah, that makes perfect sense. And it's a great reminder. And Dr. Rahi, I truly appreciate you for all the awesome things that you're doing and of course taking some time out today.

Yes, and we'll definitely make sure to have your links in the show notes just so that everybody remembers that everything's spelled out.

But you can definitely look in the show notes to click through. But thank you again, Dr. Rahi, and hope you have a phenomenal day.

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha 13:01

Thank you so much.

But it all also sounds like you're already ahead of the curve in a lot of ways just because of the business you built, how you're starting to structure it. So I definitely appreciate that.

10:51 - 10:52

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha: Thank you.

10:52 - 11:06

Gresham Harkless: You're welcome. And now I wanted to ask you my absolute favorite question which is the definition for what it means to be a CEO. We're hoping to have different quote-unquote CEOs on this show to look at entrepreneurship, what it means to be a business owner. So I wanted to ask you Dr. Rahe, what does being a CEO mean to you?

11:06 - 11:29

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha: Oh, what it means to me is that I'm able to really do what I love every day and allow others to participate in that as well. So, you know, I allow my patients are able to participate in allowing me to do what I love and to be able to educate myself and grow in ways that interest me.

11:29 - 11:52

Gresham Harkless: I like it. I like it. I appreciate that. And yeah, it's always a good reminder to make sure that especially when you're a CEO, entrepreneur, and business owner, you're always trying to move ahead and grow. So to make sure that you are, of course, having the opportunity to do that is definitely 1 of the benefits and perks of being the CEO. So Dr. Rahi, I truly appreciate your time. What I wanted to do is pass you the mic, so to speak, to see if there's anything additional you want to let our readers and our listeners know,

11:52 - 11:54

Gresham Harkless: and then also how best they can get in touch with you.

11:54 - 12:33

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha: Best way to get in touch with me is to email me, Dr. Rahi, so D-O-C-Q-R Rahi, R-A-H-I-M-D, M as in Mary, D as in dog, at qmail.com. You can also go to my website, which you mentioned earlier. And then I also have the social media, the Instagram, which is DrRahiMD. Again, all spelled out, Twitter and Facebook. And the last thing I guess I would want to say is I would urge anyone listening to Lily, try to see if there's an integrative practitioner out where they live because Integrated medicine is the future of medicine. And I think

12:33 - 12:44

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha: that everyone should sort of, at least see an integrated practitioner 1 to try to figure out how they can live their optimal best at their current age and their current situation as it's possible for everyone.

12:44 - 13:01

Gresham Harkless: Yeah, that makes perfect sense. And it's a great reminder. And Dr. Rahe, I truly appreciate you for all the awesome things that you're doing and of course taking some time out today. Yes, and we'll definitely make sure to have your links in the show notes just so that everybody remembers that everything's spelled out, but you can definitely look in the show notes to click through. But thank you again, Dr. Rahe, and hope you have a

13:01 - 13:03

Dr. Raheleh Sarbaziha: phenomenal day. Thank you so much.

13:03 - 13:33
