Dr. LJ Punch: Bullet Related Injury Clinic

Dr. Gerard Baltazar: Using Our Hands to Heal Patients Inside and Outside of the Operating Room

#005 - Join host Dr. Red Hoffman as she shares an honest, heartfelt and inspiring discussion with her friend and colleague, Dr. Gerard Baltazar, an osteopathic physician and trauma surgeon in New York.   Gerard talks about his journey into osteopathic medicine, about how he was drawn specifically to the osteopathic philosophy because of its focus on using our hands to diagnose and treat patients, and about how he now utilizes osteopathic techniques to help trauma patients heal. Gerard established an Osteopathic Manipulation for Trauma Program at a NY Level 1 Trauma Center.   He shares that because the care provided in this clinic allows for more prolonged interactions, he is able to take a holistic approach in the treatment of trauma patients.  As Gerard says, "there's more to trauma than just fixing the holes in things" and if we truly want our patients to thrive, we must address not only their physical wellbeing, but their emotional well being as well.    Gerard does not shy away from sharing about his personal journey with domestic violence, complex PTSD, and trauma and reminds us that it is worth doing the work to to heal these wounds, for the sake of our patients, our colleagues and ourselves.
