Imperfect Dad MD Podcast with Dr Jeremy Toffle

The role of dad has changed for the 21st century physician father. With that comes different expectations compared to the physician dads before us. With so much changing, where do we turn to to get answers about how to be the dad we always expected ourselves to become? This podcast is designed with the physician dad in mind. I am Dr Jeremy Toffle, physician, husband, father to two boys, and self proclaimed imperfect dad. Through my own struggles as a parent, I have come to find that there are several key core foundations that make up who we are as a parent; if we chose to improve these core foundations, we can strive to be the father we always expected to be. Join me in this show as I discuss each of these core foundations as well as interview experts in various fields of these same principals. I also discuss dad life with new and experienced dads, helping us rediscover what it means to be a dad in the 21st century as a physician and learn to embrace our imperfections along the way. This is the Imperfect Dad MD Podcast

Imperfect Dad MD Podcast with Dr Jeremy Toffle

Men's Health Month

June 01, 2022 • Doctor Podcast Network • Episode 124

Today is June 1st, meaning it is the beginning of Men's Health Month! This month is dedicated to men focusing on their health in various aspects, including diet, exercise, medical health, and mental health.

Throughout the 123 episodes of this show, I feel those topics have been touched on rather frequently. Early on I spoke with Dr Jonar de Guzman in Episode 10 on Lifestyle Medicine and how that affects physician dads. I spent last July focusing solely on the book Blue Zones and my thoughts on how it affects our daily choices.

My various discussions with other dads has placed a spotlight on the gender gap we find ourselves with being parents in today's world.

In today's episode I challenge each and every listener to make a change for the month of June. Be it diet, physical activity, mental health - choose something to change this month to help make YOU a healthier person.

If you are curious about MY change for the month, listen in to today's episode!

Also, I mention the podcast Docs2Dads by Dr Scott Grant. I highly recommend you give it a listen this month as he plans to focus a lot of his attention on Men's Health Month.
