🎯 Driven to help. Trained to perform. Where does empathy get lost?

If you’re wondering what actually happens to doctors during training—and how it impacts patient care, leadership, and the future of healthcare—this episode is for you.

📌 In this episode of All Things LOCS, hosts Dr. Dan Neissany, DPT, and Antonio Garcia break down a powerful conversation sparked by a meeting with a medical school dean—uncovering what’s really happening inside today’s healthcare education system.
