Dr. Chrystene Nguyen joins Dr. Olga for a heartfelt conversation about something we rarely discuss openly in medicine - loneliness. As a family and lifestyle medicine physician, Chrystene shares how the isolation many healthcare professionals felt during COVID inspired her to create White Coat Romance, a supportive community and app for single physicians and students. She later launched White Coat Mingle, a sister platform focused on real social and professional networking beyond dating.
