The Inevitable

Practice makes perfect, but sometimes mistakes are inevitable, especially in medicine. Learning not to dwell on mistakes and instead, learning from them makes doctors and surgeons stronger in their fields, as Dr. Gawande talks from his personal experiences. Advancements in medicine have greatly aided doctors in treating patients, but medicine is still nowhere near perfect. This week, Elsa and Riya dive into the importance of M & M meetings, taking responsibility for one’s actions, and the importance of treating patients as humans rather than statistics. Tune in to learn more! 🚨Disclaimer: Elsa and Riya are not licensed medical professionals and therefore all things discussed in this episode, as well as past and future episodes, are for the purpose of entertainment only. 🚨
