A physician who treats himself has a fool for a doctor

Q: My husband has high blood pressure and he himself is a doctor but he is not taking care of himself, taking medicine when he “feels” that he has high blood pressure. Sometimes he becomes very angry. How can he control his stress and anger?

A: In addition to lowering blood pressure, many users feel use of the RESPeRATE helps reduce stress and anxiety. Personally, I find it very soothing, especially after a busy day. As a physician, your husband knows better than to treat himself. There was a saying at my medical school, “any physician who treats himself has a fool for a doctor.”
