Episode Synopsis

Dr. Steven Drabek draws from his four-decade career and personal journey as a cancer survivor and chronic pain patient to offer his unique perspective. He’s board-certified in family medicine and hospice and palliative medicine with an advocacy for better end-of-life care, a passion for hospice and symptom management through assessment and empathetic communication. Dr. Drabek advocates for self-determination and personal choice to help his patients set realistic goals for their own care. He’s taken all this experience and written it down in his groundbreaking memoir, The Comfortologist: A Physician’s Empathetic Perspective on Compassion, Caring and Pain Relief, which has achieved #1 bestseller status on Amazon. We talk about everything from how his own health struggles helped him see his patients in a whole new light to why the God he believes in has an incredible sense of humor. This is the good episode where science meets spirituality.
