Dr. Scott Schroeder, Foot & Ankle Surgeon, on Metal Sensitivities in the Body - 35
In this episode of The Whole Health Podcast, hosted by Dr. Kelly J. Blodgett, DMD, NMD, IBDM, and Megan Barnett, MS, CNS, we sit down with Dr. Scott Schroeder, a podiatric physician and foot & ankle surgeon with more than 30 years of experience. Dr. Schroeder shares what he began noticing after years of placing and later removing metallic implants in patients—cases where symptoms like chronic fatigue, brain fog, pain, and neurological issues dramatically improved after the metal was removed. The conversation explores metal allergies, galvanic reactions between dental and orthopedic metals, and why practitioners across dentistry, surgery, and functional medicine may need to rethink how metals in the body impact whole-person health.
Topics Discussed
- Dr. Scott Schroeder shares what he observed after removing metallic implants from hundreds of patients, including cases where chronic symptoms improved significantly following removal.
- The conversation explores metal allergies, delayed hypersensitivity reactions, and how metals used in the mouth and elsewhere in the body may contribute to symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, pain, inflammation, and neurological issues.
- Dr. Schroeder, Dr. Kelly J. Blodgett, and Megan Barnett discuss galvanic reactions between dissimilar metals, why cross-disciplinary collaboration matters, and how a root-cause approach can help patients better understand complex health challenges.
