"Finding Fascination In Medicine Again" - Gregory B. Dodell, MD
Research on mindfulness has demonstrated clinical improvement in a wide range of medical conditions, including chronic pain, diabetes, anxiety, and sleep disorders. Most people have heard of mindfulness at this point, and there's a reason why it has become trendy – it works. Gregory Dodell, MD, assistant clinical professor of medicine, endocrinology, diabetes and bone disease at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai writes, “As physicians, we spend our days taking care of other people; perhaps we were built this way. Carving out this time for yourself has re-invigorated me. Ironically, I think that caring for myself has made me a better doctor, husband, father and friend.”
