Doctor What? Doctor Where? Podcast explores lifestyle medicine
In the latest episode of the Doctor What? Doctor Where? Podcast, Lifestyle Medicine and the Art of Difficult Conversations, Dr Louise Sterling discusses the rise of lifestyle medicine and the art of navigating difficult conversations about weight, alcohol, behaviour change and long-term health with patients.
The conversation explores how listening deeply to patients can lead to better outcomes, and how junior doctors and medical students can practice lifestyle medicine themselves by protecting their own health and wellbeing during medical training.
