About This Podcast

The Dr. Hoeflinger Podcast helps you make smarter decisions in everyday life, without the jargon, fear, or hype, so you can live healthier and more intentionally.

Hosted by Dr. Brian Hoeflinger, a board-certified neurosurgeon with 26+ years of experience, and his son, Kevin, the show breaks down complex topics in plain English: longevity, memory, sleep, back and neck pain, injury prevention, alcohol’s impact, exercise, and more. Kevin keeps things practical and relatable, asking the questions you’d ask at the dinner table and turning insights into simple steps you can use right away.

Expect evidence-based education, powerful personal stories, and behind-the-scenes perspective from medicine, plus thoughtful conversations about resilience, meaning, and what adversity can teach us about living well, both one-on-one and with incredible guests.
