Customer Reviews
Best Podcast!
I am paramedic student in BC Canada and was shown this podcast by another student in an earlier class. I have since shared it with all my classmates. When I started listening I had no clue what was going on, but the more I listen the more I understand and the more I find myself thinking what I would do and trying to diagnose. Really cool to see how much I’m learning, through school and this podcast!
I sometimes wish we heard about why we are seeing the specific vitals and the basic pathophysiology behind it, but I think it would then turn Into a 2 hour show 😅
Thanks so much guys for putting this great resource out there and making it so damn fun along the way!
Great show
Very informative and engaging and has had me LOLing more than once.
Great show
Love this show so much! I am learning everything through it. I am in school to be a paramedic and this show breaks down everything and explains the steps we should take so well
