    Episode 216: Hospice Isn't Giving Up with Jennifer Eitingon, M.D.
    Nov 3 2026
    Hospice might be the most misunderstood word in healthcare, so Dr. Jennifer Eitingon is back on Doc Talk to separate the myths from the reality. She explains why dying isn't a failure and how hospice keeps patients as captain of the ship. She also covers why families do better when hospice starts months before the end instead of the last few days. Plus, she shares why ranch country may see the end of life a little differently and the easiest first step for anyone who isn't ready to commit.

    Episode 215: Halloween Haunts at the Lead-Deadwood Hospital with Historian Nicole Shiffrar
    Oct 27 2026
    Monument Health Lead-Deadwood has cared for patients since 1897, making it the oldest hospital in South Dakota still in operation. Historian Nicole Shiffrar takes Mark through the original basement, the old crematorium, an abandoned surgical floor and the morgue with its creepy green tile. Back in the lobby they talk about the nuns who ran the hospital, the first iron lung in the state and famous Deadwood names who were once patients. It's a Halloween episode full of history and a few ghost stories.

Monument Health neurosurgeon Dr. Robert Ziechmann explains how deep brain stimulation helps patients with Parkinson’s disease and essential tremor get their lives back. He covers how the surgery works under anesthesia, what success looks like for each patient, and what’s next for this technology. Best of all, you no longer have to leave Rapid City to get it.
