Created in May 2020, the Poetry in Medicine podcast seeks to foster empathy and encourage humanism in the daily practice of medicine through poetry. This podcast features audio readings of pieces of poetry and prose that focus on the medical community and the daily practice of medicine and health care from across the world. We seek to foster and encourage humanism in medicine. Submissions are permitted and are encouraged. If you would like your poem selected for the podcast, please submit in a Word document with the name of the author and location to poetryinmedicine@gmail.com. Poems must be in English.
