Real stories from medical professionals. Sometimes humorous, sometimes sweet, sometimes heartbreaking, listeners will feel like they're in the breakroom hearing what really happens out on the floor. This show is not for the thin-skinned (or the faint of heart), but neither is healthcare. The names have been changed to protect the innocent and the privacy of those discussed. No HIPPA laws have been broken. We love our profession. These are just crazy, interesting, unbelievable stories that must be told!
