The Alcoholic That Changed My Life

I've been in practice for almost 15 years and I've witnessed some pretty intense situations.  I'm not a brain surgeon, or an oncologist.  I don't cut people's skull open or prescribe chemotherapy, but I’m an expert in getting to know you. I know your kids.  And if you've been a patient of mine long enough, I might even know the name of your dog.  We’ve probably been through a lot together.  I'm "just" a family doctor, but you don’t have to feel bad for me purposely choosing to not add an extra 3 years of medical training to specialize.  That was a personal choice.  I wanted to be a family doctor.  I chose that path on purpose.  What I like the most about being a family doctor is forming strong long-term bonds with my patients.  I often think about them even when I'm not at work.  They pop-up here and there in my thoughts, spontaneously distracting me from whatever I was doing.  Then my wife says "what are you thinking about?", to which I reply "Nothing".  I feel connected to them, and when I give them their difficult diagnosis, I feel it too.  How can doctors keep working day in and day out when most of the news they deliver is bad?  Read the full article here:https://www.plantbaseddrjules.com/post/the-alcoholic-that-changed-my-lifeGo check out my website for tons of free resources on how to transition towards a healthier diet and lifestyle.You can download my free plant-based recipes eBook and a ton of other free resources by visiting  the Digital Downloads tab of my website at https://www.plantbaseddrjules.com/shopDon't forget to check out my blog at https://www.plantbaseddrjules.com/blog You can also watch my educational videos on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMpkQRXb7G-StAotV0dmahQCheck out my upcoming live events and free eCourse, where you'll learn more about how to create delicious plant-based recipes: https://www.plantbaseddrjules.com/Go follow me on social media by visiting my Facebook page and Instagram accountshttps://www.facebook.com/plantbaseddrjuleshttps://www.instagram.com/plantbased_dr_jules/Last but not least, the best way to show your support and to help me spread my message is to subscribe to my podcast and to leave a 5 star review on Apple and Spotify!Thanks so much!Peace, love, plants!Dr. Jules
