In this episode of Healthy Aging Podcast, learn how technological advances have provided neurosurgeons with the ability to be aided by a computer via stereo tactical navigation, allowing physicians to perform surgery more accurately. Dr. Steven Cobery, a neurosurgeon at Southcoast Health who was born and raised in Fall River, explains the benefits of using a computer to aid in surgery such as patient recovery time being expedited due to smaller incisions made possible by the computer system. He appreciates how the images on the computer provide a realistic view of the anatomy that he is operating on, especially when operating in such narrow spaces and cavities like the spine. This episode was eye-opening in what is going on in the world of Neurosurgery!
Dr. Cobery envisioned working in pediatrics, but his engineering brain and hands steered him towards neurosurgery. After serving our country in the United States Navy, he came home and now gives back to the community that gave him so much! At the end of the day, it is very important to him that he has done his job to translate all the information effectively and to gain the confidence of his patient. He has a “never give up” attitude that he learned in first grade; years later he applied that same attitude allowing him to save the life of the teacher who taught him that value.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
