Shop local with Pioneer Family Medicine

Host Leesa Boone welcomes listeners to the Shop Local Show on Nash 104.9 (streamed at wttlradio.com) and chats with guest Andy Couch of Pioneer Family Medicine. After light conversation about the national calendar and local weather, they focus on why supporting local matters and how community strength depends on individual health—mind, body, and soul. Andy describes Pioneer’s holistic model (family health, urgent care, counseling/mental health) and outreach efforts like a clinic community garden providing fresh produce for patients who lack transportation. They discuss child abuse awareness, the cultural disconnect and loneliness driven by social media, and practical ways to address anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and vitamin D deficiency, warning against self-diagnosis via WebMD or AI. They encourage back-to-school evaluations and paperwork for diagnoses and plans. Contact info and upcoming sponsors and discount cards are shared.
