Mind over matter! This week, Dr. Randy goes on call with Davie Rickenbacker, a Program Manager at the Center for Disease Control (CDC and former contestant on the reality show, "Survivor." This episode of "On Call With Dr. Randy" explores the ins and outs of how Davie was able to literally survive on the show. From his drastic weight loss, to the intense training to prepare and even the transition from going to his office job at the CDC to being thrust onto an island in Fiji for 36 days. While he discussed the physical toll the experience takes on the human body, he also reveals how mental the entire process was, including the continual fight from the cast for diversity and representation for People of Color on the show.
