Safier is a radiologist and director of breast imaging and memorial Sloan Kettering Monmouth, with a medical degree from Ross University and Fellowships at the Mayo Clinic. She's a former Fox News contributor, author of a book called Make America Healthy Again back in 2020 and hosts her own podcast on wellness. She's on board with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s push to ditch food additives and processed junk while pushing exercise, but she's way. More pro-vaccine than him and has called out some Trump-admin health moves as straight up embarrassing, like a flawed report and quick firings.
