Everything wrong with medicine. A follow up conversation with Dr. Aleah

Intro:

On today's episode. Dr. Aleah and I dive deep into the difficulties, misconceptions and everything that we believe is WRONG with medicine. We also bring some hope and also some smart alternatives to every clinician thats listening to the episode. 

"None of us know how to market ourselves or find the right people because, you know,  we've been brainwashed. Thats just like, you are a clinician, thats what you are."

Dr. Aleah shares what are the most common problems with our medical curriculum and the importance of BUSINESS in medicine. We have an honest conversation about the barriers that we face as doctors, why doctors should know about finances and how to make extra real money during medical residency. 

"We already know this, that hospital systems make a lot of money off of residents and the care that they provide"  

Do you fee overwhelmed about medical residency? If your answer is YES, this show is for you!

We talk about the insane and overwhelming medical residency journey and how to keep your sanity during this process. How to take risks smartly, the danger of over self-sacrifice and the importance of boundaries in medicine. 

I believe this is one of our best shows. Enjoy!
