Customer Reviews
Great podcast
One of the best podcasts out there for cardiology information. Good host, who is a practicing cardiologist.
Best podcast at the BMJ!
Dr Rudd is such a good host. Could you persuade him to take over the BMJ podcast? I like the variety of guests interviewed too. The editing is excellent so congrats to the backroom crew.
Best in class
I’m a cardiac nurse specialist and use this to keep up to date. Love it.
