About A Medical Miscellany

Join Dr Peter Kaye and Sean Aita for a light-hearted, occasionally gory, and hopefully fascinating trawl through medical history. Peter’s wide career in medicine has taken him to Saint Lucia, Mysore, the US and New Zealand. He has been working in palliative care for over 30 years having started in his profession alongside the founder of the hospice movement, Dame Cicely Saunders, at St. Christopher’s Hospice. As well as being Medical Director at a number of different hospice’s, Peter has written successful books on symptom control and on breaking bad news and has delivered lectures and workshops on those subjects as well as on team working, family support, spiritual care and communication skills.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
