Join us in this episode of the Share Your Story podcast to get an insider's perspective into the medical field and some of the grief that exists there. My guest Ingrid Berg teaches us that even healthcare professionals need to be real people sometimes. As she reflects on her medical training and career, she points out times when she needed to be a person first before she was a clinician. Along the way she teaches us ways that we can bring humanity back into the healthcare field.
