Ep. 97 - Greg Sheremeta, DPM, Work/Life Balance - Charter Fishing Captain

Dr. Greg Sheremeta joins Dean's Chat Host, Dr. Jeffrey Jensen, for a discussion on work/life balance. As a podiatric physician practicing in Troy, MI, Dr. Sheremeta also, when time allows, pursues his passion for fishing on Lake Michigan as a Charter Fishing Captain! Dr. Sheremeta has been a Coast Guard Master Captain since 2005. He is the owner of Sara K Fishing Charters -http://sarakfishingcharters.com/. Dr. Sheremeta's website states, "Come for a day of spectacular Great Lakes Sport Fishing aboard the Sara K III and leave with memories for a lifetime! Situated in beautiful Frankfort, Michigan (35 minutes from Traverse City) you will enjoy some of the greatest salmon and trout fisheries in the world. Let us take the work out of fishing while you enjoy reeling in some trophy catches." In this episode, Dr. Jensen and Dr. Sheremeta discuss how work-life balance is not only possible but also achievable in the field of podiatric medicine. Dr. Jensen frequently advises his current and prospective students on the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance. He emphasizes that individuals have the freedom to choose the level of commitment they desire, whether it involves working long hours in an academic health center or having a part-time practice while pursuing other activities, such as fishing! Dr. Sheremeta completed his 3 year medicine and surgical residency training at St. Mary Mercy Hospital in Livonia, MI in June 2023. He received his Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree from the Des Moines University College of Podiatric Medicine and Surgery in 2020. Despite his busy practice schedule, Dr. Sheremeta prioritizes his family and charter fishing! This serves as an inspiring example for current and prospective students, demonstrating that it is indeed possible to have a fulfilling career in podiatric medicine while maintaining a harmonious personal life! This episode delves into fishing on the Great Lakes, how to catch trout and salmon, and the typical day on the water - who knows, maybe we will see a CME event in Traverse City? Fish in the morning, lectures in the afternoon? Enjoy! https://explorepodmed.org https://deanschat.com/ https://deanschat.com/episodes/ https://deanschat.com/blog/ https://deanschat.com/why-podiatric-medicine/ https://aacpmas.liaisoncas.com/applicant-ux/#/login www.lelandjaffedpm.com
