Welcome to the Beyond the Scope Podcast presented by ND MD. This podcast continues the mission of sharing the incredible stories and experiences of students, physicians, and healthcare professionals...but this time it's all about the things all those years of medical training doesn't prepare you for. Things that are beyond the scope of our practice. Whether it's navigating starting a family as a medical student or physician, or learning how to invest as a student, the goal is to bring on incredible guests who can guide you through those puzzling questions.

Today we have another familiar face to the channel telling his incredibly unique path to medical school and plastic surgery. Dr. Richard J. Brown is a plastic surgeon in Arizona who also uses his passion for education to expose millions to the world of surgery. His story is for the non-traditional student wondering if it's worth the journey to medical school and surgery later in life.
