On each episode of Memoirs in Medicine, one healthcare worker shares a story from their career that has profoundly affected them and provides one suggestion, no matter how big or small, for improving the practice of medicine. The podcast is co-hosted by Dr. David Spiro, a pediatric emergency room physician, and Dr. Jon Oden, a pediatric endocrinologist. They are passionate about highlighting the humanity in healthcare and creating a space for candid and respectful discussion.

HuMed goes beyond diagnoses and procedures to explore the profound human experiences of medical professionals. Join Dr. Spiro as he engages in deep, candid conversations with fellow doctors, nurses, and other healthcare providers. They share the often-unseen realities of their work in the demanding hospital environment – the challenging cases, the emotional toll, and the ethical dilemmas they navigate daily.
