Episode Synopsis

In this episode of STACKED, I had the amazing opportunity to sit down with Dr. Douglas Burton, a world-renowned orthopedic surgeon surgeon whose life took an unexpected turn when he was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer.  Faced with a daunting prognosis, Dr. Burton has pursued every possible avenue- from clinical trials in the U.S. to cutting edge vaccines in Germany-to keep tumor at bay.  But what makes Dr. Burton truly extraordinary isn't just his medical journey-it's his spirit. Everyday he wakes up with the most positive attitude and spread that unwavering positivity to everyone around him.  With deep spirituality, resilience, and perspective, he reminds us that while none of us can escape mortality, we can choose how we live right now-with gratitude, courage and purpose.
