A new year is upon us and we are all thinking about ways we might live better lives. Joining us today are people who help others do just that. Maine magazine 2012 “Super Doc,” Dr. Robin Noble, shares how she counsels women in her practice to achieve balance, while Dr. Tim Howe and his wife Lyn describe their “Lifestyle Choices” program at Parkview Hospital in Brunswick. They offer insights on plant-based eating and the importance of spirituality in creating change.
Guests
Dr. Robin Noble
Dr. Robin Noble has been a practicing gynecologist with InterMed for 10 years. With her husband, Noble relocated to Maine after finishing medical training. She attended medical school at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons and completed her residency at Yale New Haven Hospital. After living for a few years in New York, and having two children, Noble and her family relocated to Falmouth in 2001. After practicing both obstetrics and gynecology for seven years with InterMed, she made the difficult decision to stop providing obstetric care. While she misses delivering babies and caring for pregnant women tremendously, Noble now focuses on gynecologic problems related to adolescence, infertility, pelvic pain, fibroids, perimenopause, menopause, sexual function and aging. During her free time, she enjoys spending time outdoors with her four children (ages seven, nine, twelve and fourteen) and with her Australian cattle dog pursuing many of the activities Maine has to offer—skiing, hiking, kayaking and boating.
Dr. Timothy Howe
Dr. Timothy Howe is a board certified physician in internal medicine. He has been practicing in Brunswick for 24 years. He currently serves as the Medical Director of Wellness & Diabetes at Parkview Hospital, as well as the Medical Director of “Lifestyle Choices,” a 10-day program to treat lifestyle disease. His wife, Lynn, helps with the program by teaching cooking classes.
