I am not a doctor or a medical student and I do not aspire to either. So technically speaking, this podcast is not for me. But, two things drew me to check out this podcast: (1) I work in a profession (law) that - like medicine - is changing rapidly, prone to causing burnout, takes effort to have...Read full review »

I’m not a doctor but still find this podcast very relatable and informative for life in general. They give great advice and are hilarious to listen to. I’m actually interested in the toothpaste they are using, lol.

You both are very funny and I love the honesty. The songs that Dr. Paro makes are silly, clever and good. You both are so adorable and the information you provide is great. The way you both speak about the medical field and the way you try to ensure other physicians do what they love, is...Read full review »

My fav podcast ever <3 I listen to Reconciling Medicine during my runs and the Drs Paro just make them so much better. Super informative & I love their clever humor. I listen to every single episode !
getmamao via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/27/20
Love the way these two share their passions and can even integrate humor and make it personal with the intro songs and “win and fail”. And listen to the whole episode 10. I haven't laughed so hard in a while. Just wish this podcast was a little more consistent with seasons/releases. It is a...Read full review »

As a medical student, I’m so glad I found this podcast! John and Renee Paro keep it real and funny while also emphasizing their continued enthusiasm for medicine.

As a dual physician married couple with a young baby we can relate so much to the Paro family. My husband and I both listen every week. Renee has been such an inspiration for health and fitness.
TechMMM2014 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/15/19
The Paros are a picture of health and success. In a culture where so many medical professionals struggle to truly build the lives they envisioned at the onset of their career, this couple provides an authentic, honest, challenging, and inspiring model of medicine, family, wellness, and living...Read full review »

This is my absolute favorite podcast and I can’t wait for the next episode each week!

Gabygirl12345 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/19
I love tuning in to listen to this dynamic duo each week. They are so fun! Getting into the “real deal” about medicine, life after residency, being a family in medicine - so helpful for those entering the process, in the midst of the process, and those who are finding their way “on the other...Read full review »

As someone who has used his primary practice and additional creative pursuits to maintain happiness in medicine (social media and innovation), I really appreciate hearing from others who have truly done the same. Burnout is real but it’s not inevitable-so true!! @TheDocSmitty
Dr Robert Jones via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/26/19
Love listening to these two and I love the fact that John gave his grand round speech on Happniess!
SadieD1989 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/22/19
As an incoming MS1, the information and positivity John and Renee offer is invaluable. Thank you for sharing your ups, downs and insights to living a happy life in medicine!

I’m starting medics school and am the first in my family to go into healthcare or medicine. Every doctor I’ve shadowed has been discouraging, saying they were burnt out or that medicine was not a smart field to go into if you wanted a life. It’s so nice that the Drs. Paro acknowledged this and...Read full review »

I love how real these two are! It feels like you’re literally sitting down with them, hanging out in their living room. I’ve appreciated how much I’ve learned that is practical but also motivating and challenging. Their points are worthwhile and important!!! Thank you!
Ash827293 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/16/19
Such a necessary look into the true lives of practicing physicians. A perspective that we don’t get to see enough of but is very necessary—especially for premeds deciding to go into medicine.
chandni.chandiramani via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/19
This podcast is my dream podcast! Every episode has been full of fun and countless great tips and motivation.

Love this podcast! I’m in training in the healthcare field (not as an MD), and relate a lot! An informative and real, authentic podcast.
knc233 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/12/19
This podcast is incredible for anyone who is already in or who will be entering medicine as a doctor. I have already learned so much about being a doctor in medical school, but this podcast opens up the pot of what it means to be a doctor and a person at the same time. 10/10 recommended for everyone
hellaisabellat94 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/12/19
John is a plastic surgeon and his wife, Renee, is a pediatric cardiologist. This couple’s podcast provides good, positive insight into their current lives and how they got there.

I love listening to these two have fun together while helping out anyone pursuing medicine as a career. They discuss real life issues in a fun way and it feels like your sitting down to dinner with good friends. Must listen! (Especially if you are considering becoming a physician!)

A well organized podcast that keeps idea and topics flowing throughout the episode. I feel like John and Renee are my neighbors because of how personal this project!

I’m enjoying listening to Dr. Renee and Dr. John Paro share their stories on this podcast. It’s both informative and inspiring. These are conversations we need in healthcare. Thank you for the great work and discussions!
Dr. Jessica Louie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/30/19
This podcast is like music to my ears (and not just because of the songs!) It’s great to hear from people in medicine truly happy and living their lives. You’re giving me so many good things to consider as I move through training!

This is my new favorite podcast along with “As A Woman” because John and Renee are real, inspiring, and have a lot of wisdom and great advice to give. As a pre-medical student, they give me a lot of hope and encouragement about pursuing medicine. Keep it up guys!!!
onkerr98 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/28/19
Absolutely loving this podcast! John and Renee are hilarious, and able to tell such good stories. There are so many times along the training in medicine that things seem pointless, and you want to quit for a “normal” job. The Drs Paro help remind you that it’s still possible to have fun and...Read full review »

The reconciling medicine podcast is informative, empowering and hilarious. The relationship that John and Renee have and the experiences they share are fun to listen to as an attending and I wish I had something like this to listen to as a premed, med student or resident.
C. Perfetto via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/14/19
Dr. John’s witty comedy doesn’t get enough appreciation so I think I’ll just start there, but thank you guys for giving honest outlooks on your past and present lives in medicine. It does give hope with a sense of reality to this career that so many of us are working for.
Hayden_JS via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/11/19

Speechless, thank you so much. That is a true example of people who wants to help others not to get recognition and get into med school or to get good image for their residency application, but for two amazing doctors who genuinely wants to help others. Thank you !
