Episode 130: Dr. Richard Jadick, D.O. - Urology- Hero MD? Born on the fourth of July? Marine, Navy Corpsman and the toughest DO Alive!

Send us Fan Mail This week we are joined by Dr. Richard Jadick, author of the book “On Call In Hell” which chronicles his time as a physician in the navy, where he was awarded the Bronze Star with “Combat V” device for heroic valor after he saved many lives during the second battle of Fallujah. Dr. Jadick talks about his journey to osteopathic medicine starting with the time where his drive to become a physician was born during a snowy night as a Marine (Yes he was a Marine as well!) Dr. Jadick details his time in the military before, during, and after his medical career and how his Urology program in Augusta held a position for him while he was serving our country. While serving as a physician in the Navy, he went to  the front lines because of his medical belief that every minute following an traumatic injury was crucial to the life of a Marine. We found Dr. Jadick’s story fascinating and we know that you will too!
