Join me on discovering Charlie Lees journey from Trumpeter to world renowned Gastroenterologist. His story is one of razor sharp focus; from an early life dedicated to music to the medical school years passing through photography and physical training his sense of duty and resilience is inspirational. He takes us through the ups and downs of his medical training and the decisions he embraced to achieve his highly regarded status in the medical industry. We'll also touch on the importance of the PREdiCCt study, Eastern Medicine and how everyone can improve their diet and exercise to live a healthier life. On top of his hospital hours Charlie runs one of the world's biggest studies on IBD, Crohn's disease & Ulcerative colitis (PREdiCCt). He uses his holiday time sharing his knowledge on the most important medical stages around the world and trains for ultra-trail marathons in his spare time.
