In the inaugural episode of A Better Question podcast, host Thomas Kim, MD, an Austin psychiatrist, member of the Texas Medical Association (TMA) Council on Science and Public Health explores what physicians are seeing and hearing from patients regarding vaccinations. The first episode features two people who care for children: Marjan Linnell, MD, an Austin area pediatrician and member of TMA’s Committee on Child and Adolescent Health, and Lubbock pediatrician Tammy Camp, MD, of TMA’s Committee on Primary Care. Together they discuss common concerns their patients have and what better questions physicians and patients could be asking as Texas’ child vaccination rates are among the nation’s lowest.
