The Business of Healthcare Podcast with Tara Humphrey #189 Managing Multiple Projects & When to take a Break - Dr Lavan Baskaran
Welcome back to The Business of Healthcare Podcast. This week I have the pleasure of speaking with Dr Lavan Baskaran who is A GP Senior Partner for two Practices, a Clinical Director for Selnash PCN and a Director at Croydon GP Collaborative. Dr Lavan’s special interests include ENT, ADHD, Minor Surgery, Chronic Kidney Disease and Diabetes. The question that is so often asked is how do we do it all? And I'm sure you will think this when you hear what Dr Lavan fits into his week, along with his weakness which is saying yes. We discussed the break from work that Dr Lavan needed to take to come back happier and stronger and the importance of his family. How working on multiple projects keeps him excited and energised. Also being an open book and wanting people to feel they can ask questions to learn and make informed decisions. Do something that you are most passionate about is Dr Lavan’s Top Tip – find out more about his work with Play Action International mentioned towards the end of the episode.
