For the first official episode of 2024 we go back to the basics with just Scott and Jason at the microphones. Scott, freshly back from a trip to the other side of the World, kicks us off talking about what he is most excited for in the upcoming year – spoiler alert – it's more of the great offerings from the ACOP and the chance to get together with colleagues and friends. They also take a moment to celebrate each other, and all of you having just recognized National Pediatricians’ Day.
A discussion about vaccinations leads to a candid discussion about how to protect yourself and stay focused in an environment that has become so highly charged about so many things going on in the world and tips on how to both keep yourself grounded and focused on the patient and the physician family relationship; even if that means recognizing when that that relationship is beyond repair and the best thing to do is to go separate ways.
With the CDC recently sending out another warning about the spreading measles epidemic, Scott gives us a quick reminder of what to be on the look-out for in our clinics and rotations since many of us have not seen a measles patient before.
And just to end on a light note stick around to the end to hear about some exciting things the ACOP and the Pedscast have in store for 2024. Thanks as always to you our listeners for your continued support. We want to wish you all a very happy belated National Pediatricians’ (and Pediatricians in training) Day, a happy new year, and we look forward to seeing you all in the months to come!
