They also discussed the rewards and challenges of being a Palliative Care physician, highlighting the importance of informing the public about how Palliative Care can benefit them. Dr. Rubenstein encourages patients to speak with their primary care physicians and utilize online resources to learn more about this vital aspect of healthcare.

Additionally, we touched on the significance of mental health support for doctors, nurses, and anyone facing personal struggles. Dr. Rubenstein is a strong advocate for Palliative Care, mental health, gender equity, serious illness communication, and addressing racism in medicine.

Dr. Rubenstein’s educational animated videos are widely used as teaching tools, both nationally and internationally, and have garnered over 150,000 views on YouTube. We discussed a few of these videos that profoundly impacted me. Betsy recommends visiting his YouTube channel and website to learn more about his background and advocacy for palliative care and other important causes.
