Dr. Ron Ortizo is a gastroenterologist who originally didn’t plan on becoming a doctor. His career started as a high school science teacher. Education fueled his passion and his career path seemed pretty clear. But then things changed and he started to consider the idea of becoming a doctor. On today's episode:   How (and why) he changed his path from becoming a high school teacher to a doctor. How he felt being years “behind” his medical school classmates.  We also dive deep into his biggest struggle: residency. The day-to-day grind that pushes you in ways you can’t imagine + the politics... The challenges of intern year and how he "climbed" out of a dark tunnel that he didn't realize he was in.   [ From the archives. ] SUBSCRIBE. Rate and review!
