  1. The Word on Medicine

    11/03/2025

    The Word on Medicine

    The “Word on Medicine” spanned 2017 to 2025 and with the help of our friends - faculty, residents, Nurse Practitioners, PAs, countless other members of the health care team and most importantly, our patients – we created over 200 unique hour-long programs bringing the inspiration of academic medicine to the airways. At the end of many of the programs, Dr. Evans provided thought, reflection, and opinion on various aspects of medicine and life, sprinkled with personal experience. These short conclusions to Word on Medicine programs have been affectionately referred to as “In the Final Couple Minutes”. Dr. Evans has put together 15 of the most memorable recordings which you can listen to without interruption –– this will air as the final “Word on Medicine” Program on Saturday, Nov 1, 2025.A special thank you to Dr. Rana Higgins, Linda Klagstad, Dave Michaels, and the Selig’s and Attanasio’s who made The Word on Medicine possible with their generous support.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
