In this special episode, we had the opportunity to do our first live Cold Steel episode! We were lucky enough to be able to have Dr. Justin Dimick join us at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario as part of our William Ersil research day. During this interview we really delved into Dr. Dimick’s life story and his vision for how we can continue to improve the science and craft of surgery.
