Good First Female Heart Surgeon Bad Country Doctor

31 minutes

In only his second appearance on Good Nurse Bad Nurse, Tina's husband Mark joins her to tell the gruesome story of Doctor John Cavaness, a well-loved and well-respected country doctor who is a true-to-life Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Later, as she always does, Tina closes with the inspirational story of Myra Adele Logan, M.D., the first woman to perform open heart surgery and the first African American woman elected a fellow to the American College of Surgeons.
