In this episode of the Medical Alley Podcast, host Bobbie Dressen sits down with National Geographic photographer and filmmaker David McLain for a powerful conversation ahead of his keynote at the 2026 Medical Alley Annual Celebration on May 21st.
Drawing from his decades of work — from documenting the world's longest-living populations in the Blue Zones, to capturing the realities of underserved communities across the U.S. — David shares what he's learned about prevention, environment, and the role of access in shaping health outcomes.
As David puts it, "We all deserve a fair shot at living a life in full health." This episode is a reminder of what's at stake, and what's possible when we see the world through someone else's eyes.
