Summary
Have you been putting off going to the doctor’s office?
You would think that as doctors we would have no problem going to get medical care for ourselves, but it’s actually pretty common for doctors to avoid going to the doctor’s office. This comes up again and again for my clients and I’ve dealt with it too, so if this is something you struggle with, you’re not alone.
Why is it that we avoid going to a doctor? It turns out avoiding the doctor is not that different from avoiding lots of other things in life. In this episode of Weight Loss for Busy Physicians, let’s get to the bottom of what causes avoidance and how to make it easier for yourself to schedule that doctor's appointment.
Topics covered in this episode include:
- What motivates avoidance
- Why you need to build a strong relationship with yourself
- How to get the support you need to finally do the thing you’ve been avoiding
If you know you need to schedule a doctor’s appointment but you’re having a hard time bringing yourself to do it, this is for you. Tune in and we’ll work on it together!
