    Episode 1: Royal College Applied Exam Prep, Part 1!

    Welcome to the inaugural episode of Simply the Breast! We're excited to bring you this educational podcast from the breast surgeons at the University of Toronto. In our first two episodes we talk everything Royal College with Dr. Ralph George, associate professor of general surgery at the University of Toronto and medical director of the CIBC breast center at St. Michael's Hospital and perhaps most importantly in this context, former creator and examiner for the Royal College.   In part 1 we discuss general examsmanship (00:00 - 9:33) and the dreaded pregnancy related breast cancer (9:33 - 26:52).   This is our first go, but I promise to get better at editing for the next one and it's only going to get more fun from here. We hope you enjoy and stay tuned for more episodes!   Follow us on Twitter @STB_TO or Instagram @simply_the_breast_to   xoxo
