United States Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy, Shares what Fuels his Uncompromising Commitment to a Healthier Nation in Mediaplanet’s “Careers in Health Care” Campaign
New York, NY (PRWEB) December 02, 2016 -- U.S. Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy, graces the cover of the print publication. Through an exclusive interview with Mediaplanet, Dr. Murthy explains how he was inspired to practice medicine at an early age by his father, who was also a doctor. “Early on I learned that medicine is about more than making diagnoses and prescribing medicine,” he states. “It is about building relationships with people; relationships that are based on trust and mutual understanding.” He touches on several important health care topics including the importance of prevention and emotional well-being. “We have spent relatively little attention on emotional well-being, which is vital when it comes to improving health”, says Dr. Murthy. As Surgeon General, Dr. Murthy also spends time promoting equity of access to health care for all, saying that “we are one of the richest countries in the world, but we have such a wide disparity in terms of access to care and health care outcomes.
