"By The Grace of God"
Part 1
David opens up his tough facade to share about himself, his family, medicine, rescue and his faith. "Without my faith, I don't have hope."
On a hot summer day, David stopped from his normally busy schedule to talk about a little of everything and to help folks know him better. Our topics move all around and cover large topics like medicine, health care, and outdoor dangers involving rescue. Here is a quick list of some of the topics we touch on in this episode ( Part 1&2): Baseball, Birmingham, Atlanta, Erlanger Hospital, Fairyland, Marvin Lane, ER visits today, medical school, CCS, secrets of the local ERs, Parkridge Hospital, Sunset Rock rescues, Chattanooga Cave and Cliff Rescue, Dennis Curry, the book, On Rope, the role of faith for David today, the power of saying, "I'm sorry", SWAT, Samford, AI and medicine today, the 'new' ultrasound, Doc in the Box vs hospital ERs, The Mountain Munchery, farm life, and much more.
Also talked about are: How do many ERs function today? What questions are they asking themselves when you walk in? How much time do doctors really have to talk with you? What are our hospital ERs dealing with today? How does Chattanooga's Cave and Cliff rescue stack up against other teams? Do psychological issues become physical ailments and how do we treat those? What is the real story behind the waiting room timer on the billboards - is it real?
Did Dr Wharton REALLY bite through that umbilical cord - like the legend says?
Lookout Mtn farm life on the back side of the mtn and much more....
Those and other items are discussed in part 1 & 2 of this fun episode featuring the guardian angel we all know and love as Dr David Wharton.
Here is to hoping that you don't meet him - while he is working!
