What it Takes to Be an Olympian with Dr. Mosko 🎖️ 🏊
Dr. David Mosko, Oncologist at Edgewood and the Dearborn Cancer Center, competed in the Olympic trials for swimming in 2008 and 2012. He shares his perspective on competing as an elite-level athlete, and how that has informed his approach to life and practicing medicine:

“There is a lot of cross-over between athletics and medicine. Some of the most important and applicable skills I learned are goal setting and accountability, and probably the biggest factors that have shaped my life are the teamwork skills I developed from swimming.

Also, balance is crucial — high-level athletics and careers like medicine can be stressful and mentally exhausting, so having something to help relieve that stress can help keep you sharp and engaged when it matters most.”
