Are you a badass Woman AND badass Physician?? This was created for YOU!
The Story Behind The Doc Box
Hey there!
I'm Dr. Emily Dietrich, the woman behind The DocBox™ and long-time physician.
When I came up with the idea to create The DocBox™ I had been working as a OBGYN for 15 years, we had all just somehow made it through the second year of a worldwide pandemic, I was personally experiencing extreme burnout, although those words do not quite seem to encompass what I was truly feeling.
The medical world seemed like an unfamiliar place - administration seemed to minimize the importance of the training, experience, and expertise that is gained on the path to becoming a physician.
Electronic medical records had become the norm and seemed to take more time than actually caring for patients. Increased expectations and demands by administrators, decreased acknowledgement of the care we deliver and the energetic output it takes to do so, the feeling that we are just replaceable cogs in a big wheel, combined with increasingly high risk, extremely sick patients added to an already chaotic and stress filled career.
I hired a high performance coach myself to gain perspective and started making changes to my schedule based on my priorities. I then started coaching other physicians too! I love it and believe in the importance of protecting our minds and designing our own lives.
WE TRULY HAVE THE POWER.
As I did this work, I continued to think of the environment that we are all in, the environment that feels like its trying to take us down…we are in this environment often times feeling unsupported and exposed, giving everything we have to care for and support others, to provide the best possible outcome for our patients.
And… hospitals are notorious for having terrible food choices, and if they do have decent choices, our schedules make it difficult to take time to get it. Hospitals are cold, scrubs and linens are scratchy, and it feels like no matter how much or what we do, it is never enough.
I would daydream about what might add some joy and excitement to a day in the life of a woman physician.
What would help you feel seen, supported, and acknowledged for all you do?
What would help you look forward to your days and feel celebrated?
