Dr Mandrola delivers excellent updates on recent publications. The podcast is just the thing for a commute: not too superficial, not too detailed, and do a great job placing the new clinical advances in the context of contemporary practice.

As a former Cardiology PA now working on the academic side of medicine, I’ve been out of practice for several years. Preparing to teach a cardiology course at a new program, I started brushing up on material—and stumbled across Dr. Mandrola’s podcast. Wow. I wish I had known about this resource back when I was still practicing clinically.

In just a short time, I’ve learned what’s new since I left practice, and even picked up on things I probably should have known better back then. More importantly, I’ve gained an entirely new appreciation for how to critically review clinical trials and recognize bias.

What sets this podcast apart is Dr. Mandrola’s humility and honesty: his willingness to point out flaws in studies, to admit when he doesn’t know something, and to change his perspective when the evidence supports it. That kind of intellectual honesty builds trust, and it makes him feel less like a distant expert and more like a fellow learner walking through the field with you.

I’ve flown through the last two years of episodes in just a week, and I’m looking forward to being a dedicated listener moving forward. Thank you, Dr. Mandrola, for approaching cardiology not as a lecture, but as a thoughtful, ongoing conversation.

Honest, Insightful, and Incredibly Valuable

I absolutely love listening to this podcast and feel I practice medicine very similarly. I love your critical review of studies as it brings these areas to light. I especially loved your comment at the end of this podcast discussing the reasoning to go into EP. I agree with your reasons, and consider them the same for most fields of medicine, especially any in cardiology, which I practice as a PA in and have for 14 years. Going into medicine just for the money should never be the reason as it will only lead to frustration and burnout. Thank you for your honest reviews and feedback each week.

EP is not about the money -love this statement

Me gusta el escepticismo del Dr Mandrola. Habla de su objetividad y su compromiso con la ciencia bien hecha

Muy informativo
