Hey doc! In this episode, I'm challenging you to rethink self-care. I dive into:

  • Why medical care is a crucial form of self-care
  • The importance of regular check-ups and addressing health concerns
  • How to overcome guilt and prioritize your own health
  • Why canceling patients for your own care is necessary and okay

Key takeaways:

  1. You have one body - take care of it
  2. Your health is just as important as your patients'
  3. It's okay to reschedule patients for your own care
  4. Regular check-ups are crucial, even for Physicians

Remember, you can't pour from an empty cup - this goes to your health as well!
