This is an easy to listen to podcast that breaks information down to what you need to know in a simplified format. I needed a diabetes management refresher since being out of primary care for four years. It solidified my confidence to provide excellent care to my very next patient. This has been my experience with their other podcasts as well. It also has the perfect amount of entertainment as well. I highly recommend!

Excellent & comprehensive info simplified!

Certainly my favorite medical podcast. Beyond the fantastic clinical pearls and help mediate my imposter syndrome as a new attending physician, the comfortable environment of the podcast really makes me feel like I’m with friends and look forward to hearing from them every week.

Been listening for years on another platform. Excited to now listen on audible with ability to bookmark clips.

One of my top 5 podcasts
