Episode 252 Dr. Bertina Hooks, M.D.

This week on the Live to Walk Again Podcast we had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Bertina Hooks who is a Physician, Amputee, Podcast Host, Mother and Entrepreneur. We talked about the injury to her ankle a year prior that eventually developed an infection that caused her to go septic and in an emergency procedure have her lower leg removed, the issues she faced trying to come back to work after the amputation, and the importance of recognizing burnout in doctors or anyone for that matter. We also discussed dealing the perspective shift of being on both sides of the medical field, battling insurance companies after injury, and starting her podcast and other business ventures while still being a practicing M.D. Connect with Dr. Bertina Hooks at the links below!!
