Description

The recent murder of George Floyd, among others, has once again brought to the forefront discourse on the deep-rooted, structural obstacles and mistreatment that black people face. Those roots have grown into our own profession as well, so join the BTK team this week as we discuss the serious topic of systemic racism in surgery and how we can begin to overcome it. Featuring our guests: Carla Pugh, MD, PhD; Professor of Surgery at Stanford University, Acute Care Surgeon, Director of the Technology Enabled Clinical Improvement Center Lola Fayanju, MD, MA; Assistant Professor of Surgery and Population Health Sciences at Duke University, Associate Director for Disparities & Value in Healthcare with Duke Forge Fabian Johnston, MD, MHS; Associate Professor of Surgical Oncology, Chief of GI Surgical Oncology, Director of the Peritoneal Surface Malignancy Program, Program Director of the Complex General Surgery Oncology Fellowship at Johns Hopskins University

Behind the Knife is a podcast aimed for everyone interested in not only an in-depth look at the broad range of surgical topics, but a "behind the scenes" look at the interesting, controversial and humanistic side of surgery from some of the giants in the field. Come along with Kevin Kniery, Jason Bingham, John McClellan and Scott Steele on a journey that explores all the disciplines of General Surgery in this informal discussion and interview format. We feel that this is the perfect medium not only to cover important educational topics for all stages of your professional career, but allow you to listen to a first-hand account of not only where we have been from those that pioneered the way, but also an opportunity to explore where we are now and are headed in the not so distant future from surgical leaders.
