EP44: Difficult Medical Conversations

Today I sat down and talked about some of the most difficult and emotional energy consuming conversations I have as a family practice provider.  Busting myths of how 1200-1600 calorie diets are complete shit to how you really measure complete thyroid function and so much more.

I get into how I gently confront patients who are drinking too much and don't know it and of course there is TONS about womens health in here and how I *gently* bust these myths with my patients.

I truly LOVE my job and am thankful for the patients I get to serve in my community. We all have struggles and its become GLARING to me how much of those struggles are around how well people prioritize themselves and their health.  I get to help people do that daily and it's pretty awesome!

Enjoy! (PS friendly reminder no information is meant as medical advice-- informational/educational ONLY.  Always seek care for your own medical provider :)
