There are many parallels between the pressures that doctors and professional athletes face throughout their career. It is unquestionable the influence mental health has on performance. Every professional athlete has the support of a dedicated sports psychotherapist. Our mission at You Okay, Doc? Is to replicate that in the medical field.
