Doc, U R... Phenomenal, Black & Woman

The Doc, U R... Podcast aims to empower physicians (from medical school and beyond) and combat the stigmas surrounding their mental health and diminish physicians affected by limiting beliefs, working small, and burnout. We aim to increase awareness and education about physicians' and other healthcare workers' mental health challenges.

The objective of the podcast is to de-stigmatize physicians' mental health. The goals are to humanize physicians, bring awareness to their healing needs, advance our understanding of suicide to strategically prevent suicide attempts. The theme this season is “Navigating Mental Health & Medicine: The Cost of Burnout.”

This week, Dr. Kiki speaks with Ronit Gordon about the mental health challenges doctors face throughout the different stages of their careers and explore some of the different strategies each use to deal with them.

Ronit is an experienced Project Management & Public Policy Professional. She obtained her Criminology MA (SSHRC recipient) from the University of Toronto and has Certificates in Non-Profit Management & Mediation. In 2021, she obtained her Professional Certificate in Project Management from UofT.

She has worked at the Ontario Public Service (Ontario Government) for over ten years in a variety of policy, program and project management roles. She currently serves as the Wellness Team Lead, implementing mental health and wellness initiatives and policies.

Ronit is also the Founder & Owner of RG Consulting, which is a business that provides clients with consulting services focused on project planning and career planning. She’s been a Speaker on Career panels and is a Mentor for the Monday Girl Platform and York University’s Take A Student to Engage Mentoring Program.
