Excellent Information

This podcast is excellent. It is really well constructed and full of tangible, useful information. It definitely gives you a logical strategy to figure out how to navigate through the 'modern medical world.' I feel this podcast will give everyone who listens, 'lifelong tools' to better their health.

Stuff I didn't know

It doesn't seem like you'd need someone to tell you how to visit a doctor -- but there's actually a lot of stuff we don't know. These podcasts tell you about the healthcare system from a doctor's point-of-view, with practical advice on how to get the best treatment from your time-starved doctor (who is also being constantly distracted by your *%#@&*% insurance company).
