Name of podcast: Dr. Patient
Episode number and title: 1 A Day in the Life, Patient

Episode summary:
Ever wonder what it's like to be in the hospital? Here's my story of what it was like for me when I had cancer in college. I had so many experiences as a patient that shaped the doctor that I eventually became - hearing people talk outside my hospital door, learning how to endure painful procedures, befriending wheelchair transporters and many more. This is my background story, and sheds light on the patient half of my perspective.

Welcome to Dr. Patient podcast, where I examine the doctor-patient relationship and all that it entails. Episodes coming up feature both patients and doctors, telling their stories about a day in their life, finding humanity in the hospital, doctors that go above and beyond, and more.
I am Heather Johnston MD; I was a practicing pediatrician for 10 years and left medicine in 2012. After having some serious health problems myself, I'm circling back to the world of medicine with this podcast to investigate my favorite topic, the doctor-patient relationship.
