I think the main thing that I hope- and maybe I've been imparting this and I hope to continue to impart, is just for them to realize that no doors are closed at this point, anything that they dream up of or want to do, that they really should kind of go for it and try their best and see if they can.
Imagine juggling the intense demands of being a surgeon with the equally demanding role of being a hands-on mom. Dr. Denise Gee, a bariatric surgeon and mother of three, has mastered this balancing act and shares her insights in this episode of the 'Charged' podcast. Dr. Gee’s fascination with laparoscopic surgery during her residency set her on a path to specialize in bariatric surgery, a field where she helps patients achieve life-changing transformations.
She explains the advantages of laparoscopic procedures, including quicker recovery times and fewer complications, which have made them a cornerstone of her practice. But Dr. Gee's story goes beyond the operating room. She’s passionate about debunking myths surrounding bariatric surgery and educating her patients on what to expect. Through her online video series, she offers practical advice and emotional support, reminding patients that their dreams are within reach. Balancing her career with motherhood, Dr.
Gee shares her personal strategies for managing both worlds. She regularly reassesses her priorities to ensure she’s living the life she wants, both professionally and personally. Teaching is another vital aspect of her work, as she’s committed to passing on her knowledge and skills to the next generation of surgeons.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the life of a surgeon who seamlessly integrates her professional and personal lives while empowering her patients every step of the way.
