Recently I've been listening to Chris Voss' take on what it means to be a successful communicator. I discuss the three techniques of Mirroring, Labelling & Mastering Delivery. These are all methods I've tried in my consultations with patients and conversations in my real life lol. Check it out and let me know what you think.

In this episode, we sit down with our friend Dr Maya Zosmer. Despite having doctor parents, her path to medicine was anything but straightforward. She started out in Architecture before the pull to medical school took its hold on her again. During her time as a doctor, she has found her passion in caring for some of our most vulnerable patients both here and abroad. From working in elderly care to carrying out projects to support the homeless, she has sought ways to affect meaningful change in these environments. She too has spent seasons doing humanitarian work in perhaps Europes most notorious refugee camp, Lesbos.
At the end of the episode, we share some emotionally striking excerpts from her blog, Beyond The Bedside. Please also make sure to listen to the end of the epsiode to hear Amile's favourite song from Maya's band Pocket Satellite.

Jamie Saunders worked as a senior radiographer before studying to become a Physician's Associate. He toyed with the idea of becoming a doctor, but soon realised that the PA role better suited his desires and career aspirations. In this episode we explore the role and history of physician associates in the UK and abroad. We look at their real-life impact on services and also the controversy that has surrounded their jobs.
From their introduction to the public as "cut-price doctors", to the backlash from the medical field to todays debate surrounding regulation...we leave no stone unturned.
