E47: Dr Kamil Mahmood - Dentist, Poet and Spoken Word Artist

In this week’s episode we meet Dr Mahmood, a dentist working in the heart of Birmingham. Tune in as we learn about his love for poetry, spoken word and visual arts. We share his journey as a neuroscience grad to becoming a dentist. We explore why creativity is important and how mental health among men is just as important as burnout. He gives us an insight into the world of Maxfax and why it proved to be a valuable experience for him.
