117: Blending Holistic Practices and Traditional Medicine with Dr. Danielle DonDiego

This episode, Julianne interviews Dr. Danielle DonDiego, a board certified Family Medicine physician with a specialty in Obesity Medicine practicing with a concierge telemedicine company SteadyMD.

Danielle is a former personal trainer, athlete and bodybuilder. She obtained her Medical Degree from VCOM in Blacksburg, VA and her MBA simultaneously at Virginia Tech. She is an advocate for mental health awareness and self care practices especially for physicians and those with busy lifestyles. She now mentors health professionals to navigate their high stress lives and take care of themselves while also taking care of sick patients. She considers herself a "lifestyle badass" and treats the entire patient, not just their labs. Medicine is most beneficial when you know who your patient is as a person rather than a set of numbers.

 

In this episode, Julianne and Dr. DonDiego talk about

 

• Lack of focus on self care and self love in Western Medicine 
• Medical professionals are lacking in their own health
• It’s your responsibility as a human to take responsibility for your own health
• Prescriptions aren’t always the only answer
• Folding together holistic practices and Western Medicine

 

“I like knowing people’s stories...it’s a huge part of why we end up where we are.”
