Why We Revolt - The case against industrial healthcare

Montori rescues the language of patient care to propose a revolution of compassion and solidarity. In this episode we catch up with Dr. Montori for a fascinating discussion that covers everything from the roots of burnout to why doctors should not be called providers.
