Episode Synopsis

In this episode of We Are Human, we sit down with oncologist and writer Dr. Laura Vater for an honest conversation about what it really takes to stay whole in a profession that often asks you to give everything. We talk about the emotional toll of medicine, the reality of compassion fatigue, and why caring for your own mind, body, and spirit isn’t just important—it’s essential. Laura shares the practices that help her stay grounded, and how reconnecting with your own humanity can actually make you a better doctor. If you’ve ever felt like you’re running on empty, or wondered how to build a meaningful life and career in medicine, this one’s for you.Hosts: Dr. Tommy Martin & Dr. Tyler BeauchampGuest: Dr. Laura VaterConnect with Dr. VaterIG: @doclauravaterhttps://www.lauravater.com/Produced by  ⁨@HippocraticCollective⁩
