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 talks with Dr. Nancy Joseph about how we can define burnout and use it to create options for growth and healing. A Double Board Certified Adult/Pediatric Allergist and Immunologist, Haitian-born Dr. Joseph graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Middle Tennessee State University, graduated from Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine, completed her Pediatric residency at Stony Brook Children’s Hospital and completed her Allergy/Immunology fellowship at University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center. She is currently a practicing adult and pediatric allergist/immunologist in private practice in Massachusetts.

In this episode: 

• How going through medical school affects mental health, and how to deal with burnout.
• The struggles of culture shock combined with learning when in a new environment.
• The importance of having a flowing section in your life.
• What it takes to BE a physician vs what a Physician appears like.

Enjoy as Dr. Joseph discusses cultural competency, maintaining balance, and being intentional about self replenishment.
