Healthcare isn't just breaking patients, it's breaking doctors too. You wait months for an appointment, only to get ten minutes with a doctor who looks tired, burned out, and overworked.

In this episode, Dr. Tiffany sits down with Dr. Todd Otten to talk about what's really happening inside healthcare, why good doctors are struggling, and how cancer patients can still get the compassionate, attentive care they deserve. Tune in to hear how healing can only happen when empathy extends to both patients and providers alike.

• Why even the most dedicated doctors begin to lose their sense of purpose over time.

• How Dr. Todd turned his own experience with burnout into a mission to heal the healers.

• The one thing that's quietly driving physicians to exhaustion.

• The truth about rediscovering meaning in medicine.

• How small cultural shifts could protect both doctors and patients.

• Why true healthcare reform begins with letting doctors be human.

• The one conversation every hospital leader must have for real change.
