In episode 4 of Integrating a holistic approach to kidneys, Ciara speaks with Mike Stephens. Kidney transplant and vascular access surgeon. Part of the leadership team in Cardiff, Wales.

I first spoke with Mike, about 3 years ago, when a burgeoning interest in the wellbeing of medics working in a dysfunctional system became a passion I wanted to understand more about. Mike was open in the challenges he felt. Which was very refreshing for me to hear.

Now here we are in October 2021, Mike speaks with experience and humility. A calm perfuses through his sharings throughout.

A wonderful treasure of a conversation covering vulnerability, to pressured schedules, to being part of a team. So many gems in this. A valuable dialogue especially for those working in surgery or indeed considering it.

Enjoy.
