In "Unshackled," Dr. Heather Skeens, renowned for her pioneering blend of corneal surgery and functional medicine, delves into the intertwined themes of love, healing, and burnout within medicine. Combining candid personal narratives with actionable insights, Skeens addresses systemic failures in healthcare and invites readers to rediscover compassion and autonomy at the heart of medicine. Unshackled serves as a clarion call for a healthier, more humane medical ecosystem.
Drawing from her own journey as both clinician and caregiver, Dr. Heather Skeens recounts the profound challenges she faced when her brother-in-law Reid battled a terminal illness. Through poignant reflections and clinical case studies, Unshackled exposes the emotional toll of caregiving on healthcare professionals. The book "Unshackled" integrates interviews with frontline practitioners who share strategies for preventing burnout and cultivating resilience, while presenting evidence-based frameworks for restoring the human connection that defines the healing process.
Dr. Heather Skeens critiques the prevailing emphasis on efficiency metrics, insurance-driven protocols, and bureaucratic red tape that too often overshadow patient-centered care. Dr. Skeens argues for a transformative shift toward integrative models that honor both scientific rigor and spiritual well-being. "Unshackled" outlines practical steps for institutions and individual practitioners to implement holistic wellness programs, mindfulness practices, and supportive peer networks-positioning medicine not merely as a profession but as a vocation grounded in service and altruism.
Early readers and thought leaders have lauded "Unshackled" for its groundbreaking perspective. Dr. Vladimir Pastouk, Founder of Cleveland Center for Integrative Dentistry and Glossodontics Trademark , has hailed Dr. Heather Skeens as "The Oxygen Doctor," stating:
"There are three types of doctors. Some are like food - needed every day. Some are like medicine - sought when sick. And some are like oxygen - always with you, in good or bad, like an angel. Dr. Heather Skeens is yours, always. She is your angel. Unshackled is your guide to becoming an Oxygen Doctor."
