  • Summary

  • This podcast is an open ended conversation of ideas and topics that center around the practice of medicine and the field of urology. 

    Recently, one of my younger partners asked me the following question, “Todd, do you have a spot?”

    IHere is a quote from Stephen King. 

    “It starts with this: put your desk in the corner, and every time you sit down there to write, remind yourself why it isn't in the middle of the room. Life isn't a support system for art. It's the other way around.”

    I love my spot at a small desk in the corner of my screen porch. I cherish the time I get to spend here. As an introvert this quiet time fills me.

    Having a spot is critical to our lives if we are professionals, We need places to be quiet, to think, and to work to solve the world’s problems and even some of our own.

    Life does not exist to support our art. Its the other way around. 

    As physicians our “art” is medicine. 

    Life does not exist to support our practice of medicine. It's the other way around. Our practice of medicine exists to support our lives.
