In episode 19 of What I Didn't Learn in Medical school, host and final year medical student chats to Bettina about her experience of being diagnosed with anorexia at 15 and eventually recovering. We cover some important things in terms of how she was treated by healthcare professionals, and what things help someone in eating disorder recovery and beyond.

It is important to listen to those with actual lived experience of a condition, and not end up forgetting what matters to the actual person at the core of it all. This is why I am so grateful that Bettina shares her story and tips with us all today. Be sure to check out her podcast, Best of Bettina as well as the episode where I was interviewed giving my thoughts on how eating disorder education in medical school is. It was titled ”Eating disorders don’t have a look” and can be found here.
