The Follow-Up: Vaccines, Trust, and Pediatric Care Across Continents
Manage episode 479532539 series 2686793
In this special “East Meets West” follow-up, I sit down with an inspiring pediatrician from India to explore how different cultures approach vaccines, public health, and the doctor-patient relationship.
We talk about:
- Vaccine acceptance in India vs. the U.S.
- How trust and education impact vaccine decisions
- What India’s polio success story can teach us
- The power of gratitude and connection in medicine
- Why kindness matters just as much as science
This is more than a conversation about medicine — it’s a shared love letter to the families we care for, and a reminder that compassion, respect, and a simple “thank you” can cross any border.
Whether you're a parent, pediatrician, or just curious about how different systems work, this episode will leave you with hope and a deeper appreciation for the healing power of human connection.
