Join us for an intriguing conversation with our guest, Dr. Kevin O'Connor, a retired Army Colonel and Physician to the President of the United States. We journey through the corridors of Military Medicine, tracing Dr. O'Connor's inspirational journey from medical school to the White House, with stints in operational medicine at Fort Bragg and Womack Army Medical Center. We dig into his deployment experiences, delve into tales of the transition from military to executive medicine, and bask in the glow of stories of his role as the caretaker of the nation's Commander-in-Chief.   We traverse Dr. O'Connor's career progression, from his days as a resident in World War II barracks to his time serving the nation's top executives. We discuss the importance of trust, the necessity of worst-case scenario planning, and how medical emergencies are handled in remote locations. We underscore the value of honesty and straightforwardness in executive medicine, even when delivering unwelcome news, and illuminate the day-to-day life of the White House medical team, casting a new light on a fundamentally crucial role.   Finally, we pull back the curtain on the day-to-day interactions with the President, revealing the challenges of maintaining a team of doctors and nurses for the President, First Lady, and Vice President. Shining a light on the importance of continuity of care, we also discuss the need for change and fresh perspectives. Trust us, you won't want to miss Dr. O'Connor's valuable advice for those interested in a similar career path, as well as his insightful reflections on his own journey.   Chapters: (00:00) Dr. Kevin O'Connor's Military Medicine Career (06:18) Military Life and Career Development (12:56) Deployment Experiences and Career Transition (20:04) Transitioning to Physician to President Role (29:34) Executive Medicine (36:28) Honest Communication in Executive Medicine (39:53) Presidential Medical Care and White House Physician (44:49) Daily Interactions With the President   Chapter Summaries: (00:00) Dr. Kevin O'Connor's Military Medicine Career This chapter of WarDocs features a conversation with retired Army Colonel and current physician to the President of the United States, Dr. Kevin O'Connor. Dr. O'Connor shares his journey into Military Medicine, from being inspired by his father's military service to receiving ROTC scholarships and completing medical school.

He also talks about his engagement and being a geographic bachelor while his fiancée was in New Jersey. Kevin then shares how he met a young doctor who gave him valuable advice on expressing his interest in the military. Kevin was assigned to a PROFIS unit in the 504 Parachute Infantry Regiment, where he met the brigade commander, Colonel David Petraeus. Kevin proudly shares how he introduced himself to the commander and expressed his desire to train with them before the balloon goes up. The conversation ends with Kevin being called to jump by the CSM.   (12:56) Deployment Experiences and Career Transition This chapter explores the experiences of a military unit during the 9/11 attacks and their subsequent deployment to Afghanistan and Iraq. We discuss their initial reactions to the attacks and their preparations for potential retaliation. The participants share their experiences during their deployments, including a humorous incident involving a meteor shower mistaken for enemy fire. We also touch on the differences and similarities between the two theaters of war. I also ask about any interesting clinical cases during the deployments, to which the guest shares their pride in avoiding cases of diarrhea due to their strict hygiene practices.   (20:04) Transitioning to Physician to President Role This chapter explores the journey of Dr. Kevin O'Connor, a military physician who became the physician to the President and Vice President of the United States. We hear about his experience as part of the White House medical team and how he earned the nickname "bone cracker" from President Bush. Dr. O'Connor also discusses the flawed system of selecting the physician to the President and his belief that the President should have a say in the selection process. He emphasizes the importance of remaining apolitical in his role and highlights the peaceful transition of power between administrations.   (29:34) Executive Medicine This chapter explores the unique challenges and responsibilities of being a physician in the White House, particularly when traveling with the president and vice president to third world countries. We discuss the importance of presenting oneself as a lesser to gain trust and have candid conversations with others. We also touch on the preparation and contingency plans in place for medical emergencies during these trips, emphasizing the need to be a pessimist and constantly think of worst-case scenarios to mitigate risks. The chapter highlights the role of the advanced team in planning every movement of the president and vice president during their travels. In austere locations with limited medical facilities, we explain how the situation is handled by quietly augmenting with assets from the Department of Defense. Overall, this chapter provides valuable insight into the responsibilities and strategies of a physician in the White House.   (36:28) Honest Communication in Executive Medicine This chapter emphasizes the importance of honesty and straightforwardness in executive medicine when dealing with patients, even if it means delivering unwelcome news. The host shares a personal experience with a high-ranking patient who insisted on traveling despite being ill, and how they had to stand their ground and convince the patient to prioritize their health. The conversation underscores the need for doctors to always prioritize their patients' well-being and maintain their professional integrity.   (39:53) Presidential Medical Care and White House Physician This chapter provides insight into the unique and important role of the White House physician. We explore the daily responsibilities of serving the President and their family, including the decision-making process for medical procedures. We also discuss the significance of expressing interest in joining the White House medical unit and the distinction between military beneficiaries and civilian care. Additionally, we get a behind-the-scenes look at the average day or week of a physician to the President. Overall, this chapter sheds light on the crucial role of the White House physician and the intricacies of their work.   (44:49) Daily Interactions With the President This chapter provides insight into the daily routine of the White House doctors and nurses, specifically their interactions with the President. We speak with David L, a White House doctor, who explains how the President's morning routine includes a stop at the doctor's office. This is not only for medical assessments, but also for strategic reasons, as it is easier to monitor the President's health and avoid media speculation. We also discuss the call schedule and the challenges of maintaining a team of doctors and nurses for the President, First Lady, and Vice President. The importance of continuity of care is emphasized, but also the need for change and new perspectives. Overall, this chapter sheds light on the unique role of the White House medical team and the challenges they face in providing care for the nation's leaders.   Take Home Messages: The journey from Military Medicine to presidential healthcare involves an interesting and unique career path, filled with diverse experiences and assignments. Trust, honesty and worst-case scenario planning are critical elements in the practice of executive medicine, particularly when serving as a physician to top-level officials such as the President of the United States. Deployment experiences and transitions between different theaters of war provide valuable lessons and insights that can be beneficial in any medical career. The role of a physician to the President requires an ability to handle medical emergencies in remote locations and a commitment to maintaining the health and well-being of the nation's leader. It's important for a physician in executive medicine to always prioritize their patients' well-being and maintain professional integrity, even when delivering unwelcome news. The daily routine of White House doctors and nurses involves close interaction with the President and maintaining a team of healthcare professionals for the President, First Lady, and Vice President. The continuity of care is vital in the role of a White House physician, but there's also a need for change and fresh perspectives. The transition from a military physician to the role of physician to the President is a unique journey that offers invaluable lessons and experiences. The selection process of the physician to the President should be apolitical, emphasizing the importance of the peaceful transition of power between administrations.

It's important to foster a harmonious culture and unified, cohesive standards of patient care. Serving in the military is more than just a job, it's a lifestyle that comes with responsibilities and privileges. The rank you hold comes with the expectation to respect and care for those under your command. The Navy plays a crucial role in patrolling the seaways and providing aid at a moment's notice, demonstrating their dedication to service. Lessons learned from military service can be extremely valuable in civilian roles, such as leading a large hospital system. The congressionally chartered Recovering Warrior Task Force played a significant role in supporting Wounded Warriors and their families, highlighting the importance of coordination and integrated care systems. It's essential to remember and memorialize the knowledge gained from wartime experiences to ensure that it doesn't evaporate and can be used for future reference. A leader should always be prepared to face challenges, be it reducing purchase care costs or integrating diverse cultural teams. It's important to adopt strategies that benefit the team and the patients. Serving in the military during war times is demanding and can take a toll on individuals. It's vital to ensure that servicemen and servicewomen are provided with the necessary support and care to recover and refresh. Military medicine requires constant learning and adaptability, given the different operational and strategic assignments that one may have to take on. Never take privileges for granted, and always strive to do your best, whether in the military or civilian life. Every role carries a responsibility that must be upheld.

Healthy Living expert // CEO of Executive Medicine of Texas Judy Gaman joins JT to discuss how There can be downsides to using melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone your body makes that helps regulate when you sleep and wake. Your body naturally produces melatonin when it darkens outside, but you can also take it as a supplement. People often take melatonin to help them get to sleep or stay asleep. Melatonin is not a drug or a sleeping pill and is not addictive for kids or adults. It may be helpful with certain sleep disorders in adults and kids. Melatonin supplements for sleep are available as a tablet, caplets, sleepy tea, or gummies. Using melatonin supplements as a sleep aid may help you fall asleep and stay asleep. Research has shown that melatonin can help with specific sleep-related conditions. The data does not support using melatonin as a treatment for insomnia.

Melatonin Expert, retired Airforce Col, Counter-Bioweapons researcher, Dr. Richard Neel joins us again to eplain the false claims recently published by the main stream media about Melatonin. Dr. Richard L. Neel, MD, MPH is from Lake Jackson, Texas and is a fifth generation Texan. He currently lives in Bulverde, Texas with his wife, Marisa. Dr. Neel received his Medical Degree from the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. He has a Masters Degree in Public Health (MPH) from Harvard University and took courses in occupational and environmental law at MIT. He completed his residency in Aerospace Medicine at Brooks Air Force Base and a fellowship in Occupational Medicine at Wilford Hall Medical Center in San Antonio. Dr. Neel is Board Certified in Aerospace Medicine and served over twenty years as a Chief Flight Surgeon in the US Air Force before retiring at the rank of Colonel. During his Air Force career, he was stationed in Europe for over eight years. In addition to his flight surgeon duties, he served as the Chief of Executive Medicine for Europe, Africa, the Middle East and the former Eastern Bloc countries. In this capacity, he served as the personal physician for many US Ambassadors, Flag Officers and Senior State Department personnel. He led emergency medical response teams for the NASA space shuttle emergency landing sites in Spain, Morocco and The Gambia. Dr Neel deployed numerous times in his career for combat operations throughout the Middle East and in Bosnia. His service included time as a squadron commander, expeditionary clinic commander and air transportable hospital commander. He completed flight training at Randolph Air Force Base and has over a thousand hours of flight time in fighters, tankers, transports and helicopters including more than 25 combat missions. He completed the long course in aircraft mishap investigations at USC and served as the medical board member for six full Air Force aircraft mishap investigation boards, as well as numerous interim boards. He discovered two separate design flaws in the F-16 and one in the F-4 that resulted in engineering redesigns of the jets and exonerated at least nine pilots whose mishaps had been blamed on pilot error by previous boards.

On this episode I am joined by Judy Gaman. Judy is an award winning Author and Public Speaker. She is the  CEO of Executive Medicine of Texas and the well-renowned host of the nationally syndicated, decade spanning Stay Young radio show and now the Stay Young, America! Podcast.We discuss her book: Love, Life and Lucille: Lessons Learned from a Centenarian. While writing a book on longevity, Judy interviewed Lucille, an elegant and spirited woman who had just recently turned 100. Lucille had the fashion and style of old Hollywood, but it was all hidden behind the doors of her assisted living center. What began as a quick meeting became a lasting friendship that transformed into an inseparable bond. Lucille brought incredible wisdom and great stories to the table, while Judy provided an avenue for excitement and new opportunities. Together, the two began living life to the fullest, and meeting the most interesting people along the way (including Suzanne Somers). But then Lucille's life came to an end through unexpected and unfortunate circumstances—and the very first lesson she ever taught Judy proved to be the most important one of all.We discuss mentorship and friendship and how it is so important to be open to both relationships. Judy talks about a wonder teacher she had in high school that made such a positive impact on her life by just being himself and being a steady person in her life. The people that we can be a light for or the people that can be a light for us can truly not only impact our lives but can create a generational shift for entire families.We are both motherless daughters. We talk about our experience with grief and what it feels like to be a part of a club that no one really wants to join.

Listen to Nova chat with Executive Medicine of Texas CEO Judy Gaman. Award-winning author of 7 books - including Love, Life, Lucille: Lessons Learned from a Centenarian - and a podcast host and holder of multiple degrees. Often featured as a healthy living expert. Judy explains her why – she loves to learn, and equally loves to teach and help others to learn. She had an “epiphany” to ask the people directly. We really know how to live a good life when we are young – but somehow, we lose that. But some never lose that or regain it – particularly those who live to be 100 or more. Nova and Judy talk about the difference between living and waiting to die. Judy speaks about, “the expectation that you're going to be alive, things are going to go well, and you better be dressed for it.” Judy talks about how she reached a moment where she recognized her life was not sustainable as she was living it. After meeting Lucille, she found her joy in life infectious and inspiring.

And it just goes to show you that there are so many options and so many settings that physical therapist can work in. So I think Drew and I think Jennifer great episode. Hello, this is Jenna canter so honored to be hosting this podcast for healthy, wealthy and smart. I am here with Dr. Drew Contreras who just said Just call me Drew. And I was like, Oh, that's so cool. So Drew or gesture is one you want to get his autograph when you know what he has done. This is the the physical therapist for Brock Obama and Michelle Obama. And then the current president and first lady, which is just not and as soon as I learned this, and then got to hear him speak at a conference. I was like, this is somebody that I am desperate and enamored, inspired by must feature on this podcast. And I approached him a complete stranger. At this conference, I sat right next to him dinner and as he didn't know me, and he said, Yes, this superstar said yes to doing this podcast. So Drew, thank you so much for agreeing to come on to this podcast. My pleasure. Right, like   03:54 it   03:55 is I appreciate the kind words thank you very much. Absolutely. And that's how I'm going to be approaching this this podcast as a young professional in the physical therapy industry that saying, How did you do this? How did you get to this point, and we're just talking about executive medicine here to really understand point a point B, I feel like from the conversations I've had with people outside this podcast, there isn't one way to eat a Reese's. It's not some clear pathway if you want to get this way you you're gonna fit in this box and it's very much like the performing industry. It's like there's no it's not one agent that's going to get you that movie. So we're here to just hear hear your story where where you got started and how that led to such a   04:43 prestigious and how honor what an honor, I have a position to get to do. Yeah, um, so I think that   04:55 I think that regardless of like what you're pursuing, right, whether   05:00 That's, you know, working in executive medicine or like you said, working with a performing arts group or, you know, working with a traveling band or a sports team or whatever, right, I think the thing that people   05:14 really de emphasize, which is the exact opposite of what should happen is, you need to be really, really good at what you do. Right, there needs to be no question that you are exceptional about what it is that you provide. And I think that people get lost in wanting the end state. And they, they don't go through the process properly. Right. So just just to be blunt, right? Like, if you've got, you know, 18 months of experience, you probably shouldn't be the person on the sidelines on a high contact sporting event, who's the only person that's available? Right, that's probably not the best plan. And likewise, right, like, you probably shouldn't be the sole healthcare provider on a plane someplace when like, you barely really know what you're doing it. So I think that people get confused with, in order to get to the end state, right, I need to go through these, like, I need to know somebody or I need to, I need to have a, like you said, there's a person who will get me there.   06:17 The only thing that will ever get you there is is being exceptional what you do, right? Because when you start talking about things, especially like executive medicine, you have to realize that the people that make it to this point or this level up are exceptional at what they do, right. And they have made a living off of calling people out on the BS card. Right? Like, they know when you are not exceptional at what you do, because they they've seen it for so long. So if you're not at least there, right, if you haven't found your, your, your apex of your skill set, it's not a place you want to be. Right. So first get there, right, get really, really good at what you do. And then if that's if you've made it to that point, opportunities will unfold themselves, right? If you're prepared if you're really good at what you do. So I think that's the best thing I can say to people is, like you said, there's no, there's no cookie cutter path to getting into this, as there shouldn't be right, because it's certainly not for everybody.   07:23 Yeah, I think that's really well said, and I want to tap on the assessment of what it means to be good at what you do. And this is my opinion, but I'm going to put it in here. And then I would love your thoughts. But don't base your success off of other PTS opinions based off of other patients opinions.   07:47 I think we really mix that up. I think we really do. And it's just not everyone. What are the patients saying? What is your success rate? There are the ones that if they do get do they come back to get I would base it off that I think we worry too much about what our   08:02 comrades that's the word that's in my head right now are thinking. I think you're absolutely right. Right. Like if   08:11 I think there's a difference between   08:15 external validation, right, which is kind of what people say about you. And that can be rewarding, right. It can also be incredibly destructive, but but it can be rewarding for some people. And that's different than than defining   08:31 a level of expertise or level of success. Right. That should be pretty objective. You should be able to measure that with clinical outcomes. You mean, like you said, even just sheer recommendations and referrals from existing patient? Right, or sources? Right. That's it. That's a better   08:51 litmus test than who said, what about you on Twitter? Yes, yes, yes. Or if you're, if you're there a different way. So what about you or say you go to a conference like CSM, and everybody has been in this industry for certain periods of time. And when we create relationships with people, the ones where we are really more connected to we just generally bond with just like our friends in life outside of the business? Are even if they're not, you're not friends with the right people. It doesn't mean anything. It doesn't mean anything. I have a friend who just got on Broadway, she had zero friends who are on board, you know, like, she wasn't like, let me see of friends on Broadway, but not like close, close. You know, I just I think we can get stuck in that. Like, I'm associated with them. So therefore, like I can't, in the, like I said the reality is, even if that association gets you a conversation or a phone call, right? It won't sustain you for very long. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. What is the schedule and   10:00 Life, like in regards to when you're doing such a high profile job? Yeah, you know, I bet   10:12 I think I would average it out to people would call me get a hold of me at least two or three times a month and say like, they wanted to be the White House physical therapist, and I finally got it down to like, okay, um, that's, that's great that you're interested, I need to know, if you're okay with this, you will not have any vacation days throughout the year zero, you can never buy a ticket. That's non refundable to anything, you must be okay, giving up attending any sort of family event, kids sporting games, whatever it may be.   10:47 In the event that you actually do get to go on vacation somewhere, you must be okay with it, they call you you have to leave immediately and come back. If you're okay, with these basic things, we can have a conversation, right? And most people immediately are like, well, that's not what I wanted. I just wanted to fly on a jet. You know, and, you know, have people think that I'm, you know, in this prestigious environment, like   11:11 all these things come in a price, right? It's, it's not, it's not an easy price, right? I will forever   11:19 hold Brock Obama responsible for the fact that we both started there with black hair, and ended up with gray hair.   11:28 super stressful environment, it's long hours, it's unpredictable at times. chaotic, and it's just not an easy place to to exist in, if you aren't already comfortable in your own skin, right? So to basically understand is that   11:47 your professionalism has to supersede what your personal goals are, or your personal life is if you're going to be successful in that environment. And that's just the level of dedication that it takes. When you say professionalism. Would you mind defining that? Because professional means of a profession? And so that can be very vague. Yeah, I think that it means right.   12:12 I think that it means that you need to be willing to put forward   12:19 your best on any day in any place, and do the best you can for those patients, or those people that you're serving. And it's really, you know, kind of a, a selfless service attitude that would make you successful. And that's what I mean by professionalism. Right? It has to come first, right? It doesn't matter if you had, you know, plans to do a thing, or you were supposed to be going out to dinner with your spouse or whatever, right? Like, that's the level of professionalism that's expected. Absolutely. I like thank you so much for that. I was thinking it was singing, it actually really reminded me of swings on Broadway, they have a very similar situation, except they're not the main person, but they have to be available at a moment's notice. So just like and during the Christmas breaks that the leads or the ensembles take, they're the ones that jump in, and if anything comes up, they're the ones that are, I mean, if I want to say somebody who truly has probably the least brake, in the run of a Broadway show, it's the swings. So that's it. That's just where my brain went. because theater is my background theater is my sport, my sport. Absolutely. So I like that. That's so interesting. And, and I think it's always good to know the full picture of what it means to do something. I'm going to compare it to Broadway and musical theater because that's what I know. It reminds me when including myself when you first graduate school and you're a performer, singer, actor, dancer, you're like, oh, I want to make it on Broadway. However the schedule on Broadway, it's six days a week, one day off, the main holidays you are going to be performing that's when you have the most people attending. You're going to miss on so many things that go on in your life for being dedicated to the Broadway show. So knowing that you're going to miss so much of life not just a little like a lot like your nephew's events, whatever you're going to miss everything. And in in your downtime the days that you have one show your whole day is revolved subconscious or consciously around putting on your best performance that night so you have to be careful with your energy everything because that is there that is your main job that's your main go to so it it really does sound so reminiscent of that you got to have a passion for it as much I do think there's a little bit more selfish and that's okay to be selfish. It will regarding performing because you are a person who loves applause loves that stage and everything you are of course giving I would say it's like   15:00 5050 But I do think it would be different compared to the physical therapy job that you're doing. Because the only reason why and we discussed this before, the only reason why we can even say your name in association with a be with these people is because they have publicly said your name, you know, and that's that's an end. But if you didn't have that we would not that's that would we would be doing all this other words to go around it appropriately, you wouldn't talk about in the reality of it is   15:33 another, I was doing something else. And somebody asked me, they were like, What would you consider one of the biggest achievements that you've done professionally? And I would say that   15:44 until after 2017. Right? Nobody knew who I was and what I was doing. Right. And that was that was my goal, right was that nobody knew that. I was a White House physical therapist, nobody knew who I was where I was at the things I was doing, because that was the job. Right? The job wasn't to be. It's not it's not the world's business. Right. Right. And then so, and I think that that's fair. Right. I think then that and I think that that's really important. And then so like you said, you kind of have to understand that like,   16:16 the people who are concerned with the trappings, right with, like, what do I get out of it? Right, will be severely disappointed. And executive medicine, because that should never be what it's about. Right? It should never be about what are you getting out of it? Because if that's the case, you know, you won't be doing it for very long, right? There's, there's a saying in the in the Gulf PT community is, you know, if you want to be around a long time, you don't want to be around all the time. Right. And basically, what that means is like, you should not be trying to be, you know, the inner circle person. Right? You shouldn't try to be the best friend of these, these high profile individuals, if your goal is to, you know, be of service and do your job for a long time. Because you because that's just not the way it works. Right. So that's just kind of a reference point that I, I found, just like you said, very similar to performing arts, right. It's just kind of there's there's parallels and all these different sub communities. I mean, it really goes back to just loving truly loving what you do, and it's okay, if you don't, it's okay. Not every job, or every specific thing is meant for everyone. That's why we have so many different options and more options keep popping up after the pandemic now.   17:34 Yeah, you have to love what you do. You have to love what you do. See, I love being the center of attention, because I'm a performer and a physical therapist. So I know, right off the bat, that couldn't be for me, because for me not to be able to be like them. And the way that I was in like, doing a whole photo shoot there trying out different heels for the photoshoots. All that stuff. Like that would be the I would be the worst person because I'd be mourning getting to do that. It's so right. So there's always the question, people would ask, like, Oh, can you do this there? Or can you do that? Or can you do this? And the answer is always you can do whatever you want on your last day. You want today to be your last day. Feel free to do that. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's HIPAA compliance. I mean, that's the biggest thing. It's a HIPAA compliance. And then we have people they're just taking care of the United States.   18:29 That's such a high level. It's such high level, you know, I mean, wow, wow.   18:35 I was wondering for you, because it's this level of executive medicine is very   18:45 high profile. There's a lot going on there. I'm not asking for details behind the scenes. That's none of our business. But I'm, I'm curious about how it affected your stress levels and your anxiety while there and how you manage that during that time to make sure you were able to be fully present and helpful, even though it may have kind of fallen on your shoulders a little bit. And on that note, we'll take a quick break to hear from our sponsor and be right back with Drew's response   19:17 when it comes to boosting your clinics, online visibility, reputation and increasing referrals, net Health's Digital Marketing Solutions has the tools you need to beat the competition.

Because because   20:13 it's inevitable that you will have conflicts or that you'll have to back out of things, right. And if people don't understand your situation and the level of service and dedication you have, they just think you're selfish, right? So like the, I'm sorry, I know, I said, I was gonna come to your barbecue, but I just can't, I can't make it now. And, and I need you to be okay with that, and may not provide you an explanation of why. Right? And that's a hard thing, right? And you will find out pretty quickly, like, who, who's accepting of you and who's not? Right, because because most people will just stop inviting you to things right? Or they'll just, they'll just cut you out of their life. And there's some degree rightfully so. Right.   20:52 So I think it's just important to make sure that you surround yourself with that. And if you're a person with the family, right, like, this has to be an honest conversation that you have upfront.   21:02 This is not something that you kind of tiptoe around or like, make it up to you. Like, you'll be saying that forever, you'll never make it up, right? It just needs to be an acceptance of like this is this is part of what's acceptable.   21:17 And that's not like you said, That's not for everybody, right? It's absolutely not for everybody. So I just think that in order to be able to perform at a sustained sustainable level, right, for a duration, not just like,   21:31 once, or like, twice, right, but to continue to do that, you have to accept that. So I will. Another thing that comes to mind is, I once saw an interview with Michael Jordan, who is, you know, arguably one of the greatest basketball players of all time, regardless of what you think. Right? And Michael Jordan was interviewed and, and, and he said, you know, what's, what's it, what's difficult about it, and he said, you know, people who want to be Michael Jordan for a day or a game, you know, like, of course, I'd love to be Michael Jordan for a day or a game. But being me for a season, right? Or for a year, or for a couple of years of a championship run year after year after year, right? The commitment and sustainment that that requires, like, people don't want to do that. Right. And that's what I would say to people to like, it's super cool to work at the White House for a day for a weekend. Right, right. But do it for do it for a year, or an administration. Right? Or be stupid enough to come back and do it again. If somebody asks you, right, like, that's, that's a whole different level. Right? So it's super exciting. You know, it's interesting for for a weekend or a day or whatever, but like, but long term, right? Like, it's a commitment. Yeah, that makes me think of certain roles. I'm always going to bring it back to theater because that's my brain. It makes me think of Elphaba in in Wicked or Vita in Aveda, where Aida and Aida where they are literally doing like vocal aerobics, they don't stop singing. So when they are outside of the show, from   23:09 what I've learned, and especially if you're talking about a Broadway one, so they are doing what is it seven to eight shows a week, they get the one day off, they are not talking much outside of that show. If you want to reserve like or if they do they know what they can and cannot handle. Because the amount of singing. Elphaba I've learned is such a difficult track because of how you're, you're going from one part even if you're not in a scene for a moment you're rushing doing a costume change it's it's a very non stop role. So if you are looking to lose weight, no,   23:47 no but it so it just makes me think of that, you know, different things can cut you out of living your life, which is why I've always said I would love to do Elphaba at a regional theater for three weeks.   24:03 done done like like he's like Michael Jordan said for temporary. I think it's so good to take in this perspective and take things in as a whole. We were talking when we met the group was discussing how really understanding in this is a bigger picture thing but really understanding what physical therapy is before you even decide to join the profession as a big deal that needs to be much more transparent. And we can sit there and see all these shiny other things like oh, I want to trade for Broadway or I want to do executive medicine or oh, I want to work for this sports team. But really asking yourself all the tough questions on what goes into that? Well, I mean, if you're talking about money, great, but like, Have you ever had money and then like how fast did that money go? Did it really make you happy? So many so many things on that.   24:52 But   24:53 the details of the job will that will you enjoy that? That's your life. You're going to spend the majority of your time on the job not   25:00 off the job. So you got to make sure it's something that you like and really do your due do your due diligence in that. But I think it can be very difficult to give and provide the full picture to for anything. I don't know, I don't really know, have a clear way to make it clear.   25:20 I think that   25:23 I think that like part of that, I think is our own fault is PTS, right? I think that the general public struggles to understand what we do as a whole, right? It's, it's easy to do it in in subsets. Like it's easy to understand. Okay, well, I was on crutches. And I had a cast, and then I had to see a PT because my ankle was broke, right? Or the, you know,   25:52 mom had a stroke. She's in rehab, she sees a PT every day, so she can get better and come home. But the hard thing is like,   26:03 the professions bigger than that, right? It's, it's more and we've overcomplicated it instead of really kind of simplifying it down. Because the reality is right. What do PTS do? Well, we help people do whatever it is they want to do. And we get them back to or allow them to do the things that they want to do.   26:24 And that's it, that that's the that's the big selling point of it is, if you're not interested in doing that, I'm, like you said just about every day of your life, this is not the right profession for you. Right? Like, if you thought that, well, I would, I will have a very nice car, and I will have these set hours and I will you know be able to do these things like you're going to be miserable hate because I think that people didn't get into the profession for the wrong reasons, just like any job. When eventually, right? It will be taxing to you. And if you're not down with whoever that person is, it's you're talking to and working with, if you're not okay with, I'm here to get you to where you want to be. So that whatever that thing is, whether that's walking your kid down the aisle at a wedding, whether that's going on a hike, again, whether it's walking the dog, right or like putting your shirt on by yourself, right, whatever those things are. Now in a handstand, of course,   27:26 like if you're not okay doing that,   27:29 we're never going to be happy with with what PT does, right? So I think that that's the thing that people need to kind of understand if I wish, if I had anything to say to anybody who's listening who's like thinking about it, think about that. Are you okay with doing that, that be your role in life? And if that is not appeal to you, you need to find something else. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. It really is a   27:55 job board, you're of service, but you have to love being of service in this manner. Like if it doesn't feed your soul, like then how, like no money can ever pay you enough. It's never never enough. It'll never be enough. And that's okay. That's okay. It's I take like, exactly, you got to figure out what you love. I feel pretty lucky. Because I went into school, dreading that I was going to school and I felt like public embarrassment in the musical theater world because I entered school as a quitter. Because that's what it looks like, like, I'm leaving my profession. And so I had people offering me get professional gigs while I was in my first year of school. And I was embarrassed. Meanwhile, other people were posting and going, Oh, I started up in school, because it was a prestigious school and everything. And I was like, quiet for the first at least a year, if not more about what where I was.   28:52 I mean, it's all perspective. But then I learned I got a sometimes don't just take that one experience. And for me, I had that which was beautiful, seeing how it can change people. And yeah, yeah, but if that doesn't work for you, it doesn't work for you. I love that. Yeah, so for you. In executive medicine, I don't know if you know, the data on this. I don't even know if it exists. But is there kind of an average of how, how long medical professionals usually stay within executive medicine? Or is there kind of like, usually it's about five or 10 years or something just because it is such a commitment and you're talking about family and all these things. Just wondering, I think that there's a there's a there's it is a   29:38 Oh, I think there's a short hump and a long term home. I don't think there's a lot of people in the middle. Oh, interesting. Yeah. I think that if most I would probably say two thirds right. It's a short   29:55 I don't know. I'm guessing you know, five to seven year experience, right? The people   30:00 Do that short. Yep. And then   30:04 yes, yes. I think there's nobody that's kind of in that like seven to 15. Year. And then I think you get another the the last third is in the 15. year plus right. So wow, a career choice, or have made that shift for whatever reason. In that direction. I think they kind of stay there.   30:28 But I don't think it's, yeah, yeah. I don't think it's a mid career thing. It's either a stop along the way, or eventually it becomes your, your pathway. The business side, I have a real dorky question here. It's not dorky. And because there are people who be curious, I'm curious about documentation. For some reason, I feel like it's gonna be theirs. Let's compare to a Rite Aid receipt versus a CVS receipt. I feel like it's probably a CVS receipt, am I wrong?   30:59 Here's what I would say. Right?   31:03 If you treat everybody the same, and document the same, you're always okay. That's it. Right? In, that's where you have to be, again, like you got to be good at what you do. And you got to be very comfortable with that, right? Because   31:18 you people, you'll be second guessed right, there will be consultations with other providers. That's just the nature of executive medicine, right. And so you need to be okay with what you're doing. And documentation is part of that, right, making sure that you're you're very clear about your plan of care and the things that you're doing and why you're doing them.   31:37 But if you, you know, if you do it the same, it doesn't matter, right? It's universal precautions, right? If you if you do it the same no matter what you're good to go. So that that'd be my two cents on that. And then we also think it might differentiate and regarding plan of care, because we're talking about exercise adherence, which is something that physical therapists are was talking about, it's one of my biggest passions is getting exercise. And it's so great when it works.   32:03 For your patients in general, that have a high anxiety life, lack of sleep life, how do you achieve that adherence in a realistic way to get results? Does that make sense? I'm trying to generalize, even though every patients different, but this is we're talking about a very specific level of high stress. Right? I think that you have to understand that when you're working in this kind of subset, the biggest commodity for people, their biggest asset, the thing that is the most valuable to them is time, time is their most valuable asset, right? It's not money, it's not, you know, I have stuff do I have, you know, it's not the resources of equipment, or what, like, it's time, their time is very valuable.   32:55 And you have to, you have to be a good steward of that, right? You have to respect that. And so you have to,   33:04 you're not going to give somebody you know, a printout with 15 exercises, that's going to take an hour and a half for them to do and tell them to do it three times a day, right? Like, this is not how this how it's gonna work. Right. So I think that if you understand that concept, in build your plan around that about what is the most effective thing I can do with you, or this amount of time, which is limited, and then you have to understand that that's, it's finite, right? There's not It's not unlimited, that there's a million priorities that are trying to take that time. And if you are, are good about using it and understand that it's a limited resource, then they'll appreciate it.   33:49 I just realize you have unusual, wonderful access to collaboration over there. And I started to think about food. Could I mean, you could No, here's, here's No, there's a purpose, because digestion, if their digestion is off, that actually can have a big effect on their healing process. Have you had opportunities to collaborate with the the shatter? That is so cool. Oh, that is like the best. Right? And again, right, like you, you have to get the most value out of the things that you can write. And it's really interesting in this world is that like, it's, it's usually a matter of making sure that you know, that people are meeting the caloric minimum, right that there because again, they're so busy, or figuring out what is the more effective way of doing this or how can we provide the requirements despite a busy travel schedule, right, or all the other you know, things that are demanding and then right and then also right, like, yeah, work with chefs nutritionist. Work with other   35:00 With personal trainers, massage therapists, you know, other health care providers like you just so cool. Like you're part of the bigger picture.   35:11 If you're there for that it'll work itself out. Yeah, it sounds like I mean, I'm sure there are discussions that have to happen. But it sounds like the dream collaboration because you have access to literally everybody in the picture that you would want to be present in the picture there. That is just so cool.   35:28 Like, Oh, yes. Oh, God, if I said that to any of my performers, hey, can you connect me with your, your nutritionist or your chef, so I can work? And be like, Are you kidding? Get out of here.   35:40 But wow, that's that's really, really cool. That's, that's getting the opportunity for next level. Next level stuff. Um, I was wondering if you have any fun memories from your first day on the job without getting specific about the individual, but just any? Yeah. So. So the very first day,   36:04 you know, I'm working with President Obama, right. It's a   36:09 White House is an interesting place, because   36:13 there's the work areas, there's were offices and whatnot. But then there's also an area called the residence, and that's where the family lives. And it's off limits to the staff, like people don't, nobody goes into the residents. That's their home. Right. So I was going to see the President and   36:33 in order that we were going up through to the president, so we get into their private elevator, right. And it was, you know, people that Oh, my God, he's getting in the elevator with them. And I didn't know any better, right? So I just, I just introduced myself to him. He's like, okay, hey, come with me. We're gonna go on the elevator and go upstairs. And, you know, I'll get changed up and then we'll go start work. I was like, Okay, great. So I come in the elevator, and he's like, you know, Hey, man.   36:58 What part of the island are you from? And I was like, I'm sorry. He's like, You. You're from Hawaii right? Now, in context. He's Hawaiian. Right? And people probably can't see me, right. But, you know, I'm absolutely a Pacific Islander. And I said, Actually, man, I'm from Cleveland. And he was like, wait, what? I said, Yeah, I'm, I'm from Cleveland. He's like Cleveland. And this was big, right at the time, where LeBron James had just left Cleveland to go to Miami. And if anybody knows anything about Obama, he's quite the basketball fan. So he turns to me and says, Cleveland, ah, that's too bad about LeBron. Like, without, like, I just met this man. Like, and, and so like, you know, growing up in Cleveland, like, I immediately got defensive. And I was like, well, that's too bad that Chicago sucks and everything. Right? So like, immediately, like, and then I was like, oh, oh, I'll be shooting that right. Like, but like he put, I just was completely caught off guard and put me on my heels. And I got defensive about clean. He was like, looked at me, and was like, we're gonna be okay, like, we're gonna get along. All right, right. So that's great. Then people always ask, like, What are you talking about? What you know, what things and things I would tell people is, like, we talked about three things for the majority of our entire interactions, sports, weather, and kid. Those are the three topics that we could talk about, if the conversation ever went somewhere else, right? My answer was usually, like, there's probably somebody who could talk about that, but it's not me. But you mean, referred to. And I think the weather is going to be crappy today, right? Like, and I kind of focused on that right to make sure that I was doing my job, right. And those topics we kind of came to through through just general conversations, these topics are safe and easy for us to talk about, and allowed him to be a patient and allowed me to be a clinician. Yeah, because if you want into anything else, Woof woof. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, too much. That's really cool. I like I like how you found a way to be sensitive and helpful with that sensitivity, you know, to give a human a break.   39:20 For real Oh, that's so magnificent. I think this is perfect. We're going to end here thank you so much for coming on. I'm not sure if there is is there a way for people to reach out to you and contact you if they wanted to? I don't know somehow connecting you can probably the easiest way for the general audience is just find me on on social media. Right? You can find me on Twitter, you see on Twitter. Yeah. DC underscore PTS easy to find me. You know, and eventually I'll, I'll look at it and get back to people but that's probably the easiest way for Pete for this audience to get a hold of me if somebody you know, is interested or just wants to you know,   40:00 Here's something else let me know.
