Does medical jargon follow you home?
from Sharp Scratch · host The BMJ
In this Second episode, Zaynah Khan - the host, Matt Morgan - an NHS Intensive Care Consultant and Writer, and panel member Nikki Nabavi - who is an FY2 Doctor, explore how medicine seeps into their personal lives, through the example of language. Together they discuss examples of medical jargon and work terminology that become inside jokes or are used completely out of context in their personal lives. Part 2 following the last episode in December - be sure to listen to that if you haven’t, yet!
