Dr. Red is the creator and host of The Surgical Palliative Care Podcast and The Surgical Soul with Red MD.
The Surgical Soul with Red MD
The surgical soul is an area deep in the abdomen, about the size of a silver dollar, centered on the head of the pancreas and surrounded by multiple structures and several large blood vessels. Dr. Ken Mattox, an international leader in the field of Trauma Surgery, defines injuries to this area as "soul wounds" as they are often deadly to the patient and are very challenging for the surgeon to access and to manage.
Inspired by its namesake, The Surgical Soul with Red MD dives deeply into the lives of surgeons, exploring their accomplishments and joy, as well as their struggles and pain.
If you've ever been curious about the secret lives of surgeons, this podcast is for you.
