Not every doctor dreams of climbing the traditional ladder. Some dream of building their own.
Doctors Making a Difference, hosted by Dr. Peter Crane, tells the stories we rarely hear, of physicians who dared to ask, “Is this all there is?” and then changed their lives to answer it.
These are the moments after burnout, after bureaucracy, after sacrifice. When purpose called louder than protocol.
Each week, listeners meet doctors who stepped off the expected path—into roles as entrepreneurs, advocates, creatives, and leaders redefining what it means to heal.
They didn’t just survive medicine. They made it theirs.
