When it comes to being an Emergency Room doctor, every day is something new. You can never really know what to expect each day- and it's more than likely to see a case you've never seen in a textbook before. Having to figure out how to treat patients in the moment to keep them alive is the job of every ER doctor, nurse, and technician. Today, Dr. Jonathan Karp and student producer Kaya Basatemur are joined by Dr. Mark Pappadakis from Capital Health to discuss what being an ER doctor is like. From his experiences in college and medical school to his day-to-day in the Emergency room, Dr. Pappadakis describes some of the most important things for you to know about the ER.
