E28 Practice What You Prescribe: How to Stay Healthy In Med School | #MedSchool | Ep.28

In this episode, we talk about walking the talk. We, doctors, advise our patients to adopt healthy lifestyles. But do we even practice what we preach? Doc Steffani is living proof that it is possible to keep a sound mind in a healthy body even in the thick of med school and residency training.

Dr. Steffani Someda is a graduate of ADMU with a degree of BS Biology and of St. Luke’s College of Medicine for her Doctor of Medicine program. Recently she just finished her ophthalmology residency training program at the St. Luke’s Medical Center, where she served as the chief resident. Aside from being a doctor, other activities include being a rhythmic cycling coach and a practitioner of veganism.
