The Doc, U R… Podcast aims to empower physicians (from medical school and beyond) and combat the stigmas surrounding their mental health and diminish physicians affected by limiting beliefs, working small, and burnout. We will start with the women doctors in our lives and provide conversations geared towards female physicians, but understand this is not just about female physicians.

The objective of the podcast is to de-stigmatize physician mental health. The goals are to humanize physicians, empower female physicians, and bring awareness to their healing needs. The theme this season is “Navigating Mental Health & Medicine: Defining Burnout, An Occupational Hazard.”

This week, Dr. Kiki speaks with Dr. Omire-Mayor. Dr. Omire-Mayor obtained a B.S. in General Science: Life Science Option at Pennsylvania State University, and later combined his interest in policy, corporate wellness, and sports medicine through a Masters of Science in Health Promotion Management. He later obtained a Doctorate from Lincoln Memorial University. Knowing firsthand the socioeconomic barriers and struggles the underserved population in America faces when it comes to healthcare, Dr. Omire-Mayor works not just as a doctor but as a community advocate. His efforts span the globe, reaching as far as The Horn of Africa, India, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic.

In this episode:

• How Dr. Omire-Mayor’s family and doctors inspired him towards medicine
• The benefits of exploring several different options regarding education
• Advocating for community health and global health
• The importance of representation in leadership roles
• The dangers of focusing all on the mission

Enjoy as Dr. Omire-Mayor talks about how to not lose your head going forward in life.
