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

5 Things I Learned in June

July 13, 2022 • Doctor Podcast Network • Episode 125

We are BACK!

Last month I decided to take time away from the podcast and focus more on myself and my family. As the month of June is designated as Men's Health Month, I felt it was poignant to give more attention to my physical and mental health when it comes to being a father, husband, and physician.

But now I am back in the podcast chair and ready to roll. A lot happened in the month of June and I am excited to share it all with you! I feel the best way to first summarize the month is to talk about the Top 5 Things I Learned this month. These were

1) One child is easier than two.
2) Your 5-year-old will not keep your secrets for you.
3) Screen time is ok, sometimes.
4) Let it flow.
5) The US medical system versus the Ukrainian medical system.

If any of these sound interesting to you, OR you are thinking ,"What the heck do any of these have in common??" check out this week's episode!
