  • Physical Requirements Across Physician Specialties

    Physical Requirements Across Physician Specialties
    Jan 19 2026
    Medicine isn’t just intellectual work. It’s profoundly physical. In this episode, we break down the very real, often overlooked physical requirements across different physician specialties. From the endurance needed in surgery and OB/GYN, to the sensory precision of ophthalmology and dermatology, to the emotional‑physical balance of family medicine and psychiatry, we explore how each field shapes a doctor’s body, posture, stamina, and daily rhythms.We also talk about the toll these demands take over time: back pain, repetitive‑strain injuries, overnight‑shift fatigue, and the subtle ways doctors adapt their bodies to the work they love. It’s an honest, funny, and deeply relatable look at the physical side of being a doctor... the part no one warned you about in training.
