In this episode, we reconnect with Dr. Peter Lio, MD. Dr. Lio completed his medical and dermatology training at Harvard Medical School and currently serves as a clinical assistant professor of dermatology and pediatrics at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. He also runs a private practice in the Chicago area, where he leads the Chicago Integrative Eczema Center.

In this second part of our two-part series, Dr. Lio reflects on his experiences in academic medicine versus private practice, offering students key considerations when deciding between the two. He also discusses his collaborations with the medical industry and closes with a lighter topic, pizza. Tune in to hear his perspective on living the full life of dermatology.
