Not every doctor dreams of climbing the traditional ladder. Some dream of building their own.
Doctors Making a Difference, hosted by Dr. Peter Crane, tells the stories we rarely hear, of physicians who dared to ask, “Is this all there is?” and then changed their lives to answer it.
These are the moments after burnout, after bureaucracy, after sacrifice. When purpose called louder than protocol.
Each week, listeners meet doctors who stepped off the expected path—into roles as entrepreneurs, advocates, creatives, and leaders redefining what it means to heal.
They didn’t just survive medicine. They made it theirs.

DMD #64 | New Year Reflection: Why Being a Healer Still Matters
As a new year begins, Dr. Peter Crane reflects on what it truly means to be a physician — not just as a provider of information, but as a healer, advocate, and human being. Drawing from his own life-altering cancer diagnosis, years in rural medicine, and conversations with physicians across the country, this solo episode explores trust, burnout, financial independence, and why medicine still matters — now more than ever.
