About the Event
"Knowing the science of medicine doesn't always translate into living it."
This is a truth many in the healthcare profession know well. The demands of our careers often mean our own well-being is the first casualty.
Join us for a special curated case discussion with Dr. Kaushik Ilango, a Medical Officer in Anaesthesia at Singapore General Hospital and medtech entrepreneur. Dr. Kaushik combines his clinical experience with an acute understanding of human performance and technology. Dr. Kaushik understands the pressure cooker of medical life firsthand. After housemanship, he was the most fatigued he had ever been - living proof that professional knowledge doesn't guarantee personal health.
From Burnout to Balance: A Doctor’s Journey Back to Health
In this candid session, Dr. Kaushik will share how he successfully used the pillars of Lifestyle Medicine to systematically rebuild his body, reset his daily habits, and rediscover his professional purpose.
You will take away practical insights on how small and intentional shifts in nutrition, movement, sleep, and mindset management can help you thrive, even in the most demanding medical careers. Dr. Kaushik's vision is to help medicine empower people to flourish, not just survive.
Don't miss this opportunity to widen your knowledge. We hope to ignite your passion to step into lifestyle medicine practice, guiding your patients on an evidence-based journey towards effective outcomes.
This is a medical case discussion which is exclusively for SGLM members only. Register now to book your slots.
