044 – From class clown to Doc Outside the Box

Show Notes

LISTEN & SUBSCRIBE ON: APPLE PODCASTS | GOOGLE PLAY | STITCHER

My next guest is Dr. Buck Parker. As a self-proclaimed class clown in high school, Dr. Parker is having the last laugh living his life outside the box. On the surface, Dr. Parker is an acute care surgeon working in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Underneath that is a man who is chasing his childhood dreams. On this episode, we get to learn more about him, including how he built a million-dollar internet business as a resident. He also was a castaway and medical expert on the NBC reality TV show The Island.

Things you’ll learn in this episode:

• How “limiting” thoughts can affect your trajectory in life
• His thoughts on Physician Burnout
• His aspirations to create an online medical school
• How he built a million-dollar internet business as a general surgery resident
• How he answers #imnotjustadoc

★★★★★ 5/5

This is such an inspiring podcast! Every episode is better than the last! I just got into medical school and Dr. Darko has made me realize that the medical field has countless opportunities in addition to being physicians. We only get one life so let’s make it count and LIVE OUTSIDE THE BOX! Thank you again for all you do, Dr. Darko! I can’t thank you enough!

Thank you so much, Dr. Darko, for finding and then broadcasting the amazing, game-changing work of doctors working outside (and inside) the box. I already had my first bout of professional burnout less than a few years out of residency, but listening to your podcast has inspired me to get my head back in the game and perhaps, find my own unique contribution.

I wish this was around when I was a med student – I can’t say enough about how helpful this has been in pointing out things we as physicians don’t think about. Dr. Darko takes you through these interviews with the ease of a conversation with your colleague and you feel like he’s having aha moments right with you!
