Inspiring Doctors

Most doctors speak to the public in individual consultations every day. But communicating about medicine to a wider audience is a different skill set altogether. In this series, Martin McKee, a professor of public health and the 2022-23 president of the BMA, talks to doctors and others related to medicine who have successfully taken their medical knowledge to the public in creative ways. New episodes come out every Tuesday until 26 September. Our cast of amazing guests includes Rachel Clarke, Saliha Mahmood-Ahmed, Phil Hammond, Alice Roberts, Ben Goldacre, and more. Follow us wherever you listen to podcasts so you never miss an episode. The interviewees on this podcast are just a selection of those who communicate medicine in fantastic ways.
