Episode 84: So, You Want To Be A MIlitary Medic?

If you've been anywhere in this world the last few weeks, you know what's been going on in Ukraine. Once again, military medicine has taken front row. But what actually is military medicine about? What are some of the misconceptions? And what can we as civilians take away from our colleagues in service?

On this episode, Dan and Ed are civilians talking medicine in the military to Dr. Andrew Fisher, MAJ USA, and the namesake of the Saint Fisher Church of Evidence Based Medicine; and our good friend Peter D'Antuono, who served in combat as a medic with the 173rd Airborne Brigade. We get to shine a light on something not many civilians get to hear about...and why it's important.
