Often times, we only ever think about a doctor when something goes wrong. They are always there, rushing all over to save the day. We only know them for the brief period of time when they are with us, caring for our needs. Yet, doctors are people too. In this podcast, we peel back the curtain on a doctor's life and discuss their job, lives, and the problems they face on a daily basis. Currently, the field of medicine is facing widespread shortages. We hope this podcast will help change some perceptions and influence more people to join the medical field.
