The clinician’s voice becomes less prescriptive, more
conversational.
Less “Come back in six weeks for another dose.”
More “Let’s check in on how your immune system is
adapting.”
The Rise of the Therapeutic Generalist
As biologics become safer, more durable, and easier to
administer, the care model expands beyond specialists.
Primary care physicians, community health workers, and
even digital health coaches could become frontline
providers of next-gen biologics.
This democratization of access comes with responsibility:
• Ensuring accurate diagnosis.
• Avoiding misuse or premature discontinuation.
• Providing follow-up pathways when complications
arise.
It’s a challenge—and an invitation.
Doctors won’t disappear in the edible biologic era.
But they will evolve.
And those who evolve first—who understand that guidance
is more valuable than gatekeeping—will lead the next
generation of care.
