128 - After Shock with Dr. Rana Awdish

THE CURIOUS CLINICIANS
About this episode

In this episode, we talk curiosity, healing, and the wonders of the human body with Dr. Rana Awdish, bestselling author of In Shock: My Journey from Death to Recovery and the Redemptive Power of Hope and the new book, After Shock, out now!

The book prompts doctors (and everyone else) to feel curious and open to the amazing abilities the human body has to heal. We think that if you enjoy our podcast, you'll find something meaningful to take away from the book. Thanks to Dr. Awdish for joining us!

Audio for this episode was produced by Clair Morgan of Nodderly.com and Resident Giancarlo Buonomo and medical student Millennium Manna are our producers.
