What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I’ve been following Dr. Hyman for years and he’s the reason I got into the holistic field myself. But…this podcast has become more commercial than informational. So much that there’s not much that he hasn’t already shared before. It’s primarily about pitching Function Health (which I love) and all of his affiliate links/associations. Really to the point where I only listen to an episode once a month or every other month and I don’t feel like I’m missing anything. Kind of disappointed to be honest.

ckeseling · Jun 2026

While I greatly value the medical and lifestyle information shared on the podcast, I find it disappointing when the conversation turns toward political commentary or religious interpretation. In the recent episode, Dr. Sharon Malone’s comments about the Bible felt unnecessary and out of place in a discussion I came to for health and science-based content. I say this as someone with friends and family across a wide range of political and religious perspectives. I appreciate thoughtful discussion, but I believe the podcast is strongest when it stays focused on medical, scientific, and lifestyle guidance. Please keep the excellent health content, but leave out the political and religious commentary, if only out of respect for listeners who come to the show for practical medical insight.

R V Dank · May 2026

Dr Mark, I really love your podcast and value the wealth of information that you share from interviews and from your own practice. I appreciate you taking time to support pregnant women by sharing your functional health advice. But you really should be more careful with your language when you say the baby is a “parasite”. Do you know that this rhetoric/argument is used among many especially angry young women in the pro-abortion space -that the unborn baby is not a human life, it is a “parasite” and it is such an ugly and inhumane way of looking at fetal development. So while I understand the context in which you were using that word, you can see how that way of describing the unborn baby is misrepresenting the actual biological process of creating human life. Which is necessary to the survival of our species, by the way. I will continue to listen to your podcasts but I find the use of “parasite” in respect to pregnancy leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

MntnMomma · Mar 2026

I thoroughly enjoy Dr. Mark and his podcast. He brings on some of the best guests of any health related podcast I listen to. Functional medicine is making its way into mainstream circles thanks to people like Mark Hyman. He’s helping to pave the way for a healthier population with his podcast.

TashDee1111 · Mar 2026

The Doctor’s Farmacy has turned into a masterclass in selective outrage. Mark Hyman built a career warning about glyphosate, PFAS, mercury, endocrine disruptors, and regulatory capture. But when he hosts Robert F. Kennedy Jr. or guests orbiting the MAGA ecosystem, the spine vanishes. Under Donald Trump, there have been repeated efforts to roll back environmental regulations, weaken EPA enforcement, and loosen pesticide oversight. If your whole brand is “toxins are destroying America,” that should be front and center. Instead? Hyman lobs softballs about “medical freedom” and “corrupt agencies” without forcing any reckoning over deregulatory policies that directly affect chemical exposure. You can’t rail against glyphosate and then stay silent when politicians you platform support regulatory frameworks that favor industrial agriculture. You can’t warn about PFAS and mercury while avoiding discussion of environmental rollbacks because it might upset your audience. It’s not that he interviews controversial figures. It’s that he refuses to cross-examine them. The result isn’t bold truth-telling. It’s wellness populism wrapped in polite deference, attacking abstract “systems” while protecting specific political allies. For someone who brands himself as fighting chronic disease at its root, the unwillingness to confront power when it’s politically inconvenient looks less like courage and more like calculation.

Matthew Reagan · Feb 2026

I was extremely disappointed to hear Dr.Hyman to refer to children conceived with ivf as “test tube babies.” That term is inaccurate, outdated, and reduces a human life to the way they were conceived. If you wouldn’t say that directly to a child, please don’t use it at all
