In his first podcast, Dr. Paul tells his story starting when he was a young boy of five years old and how he got the nickname Dr. Paul, which stayed with him through the years. He discusses his journey since then and how his early interests in elementary school stayed with him. This interest continued during college as a biology major premed. He discusses his inspirations along the way throughout med school and why he chose to be a family doctor initially, and then during his first years of clinical practice he developed a special interest in psychiatry and mood disorders. He discusses his many aha moments and revelations during his first several years of practice which then led to the decision to focus his attention on mood disorders and chronic physical problems. He discovered the mind-body connection and what that really means. This then led to the writing of his books, currently working on his sixth, to be released next year. This first podcast tells his journey from the beginning until now.
