  • Health and Veritas

    Wide-ranging discussions on health policy and on health care discoveries and controversies driven by policy decisions (or in some cases ignored by policy-makers.)

    I always learn something I had not known from the two hosts and from their guest of the episode,

    Bravely ventures sometimes into electoral politics, making me say “Hear hear!”

  • Great info

    Super informative and well done. Great selection of topics. My only wish is to hear less of the Yale-centric accolades, as it sounds too click-y.
