It’s difficult enough focusing on one thing to do, let alone four. But somehow Rishad manages to do it really really well and with quite some ease.

Welcome to part one of this week’s episode of Med Tech Talks. This time, we chat with Rishad Usmani, who is a doctor, a start-up founder, an investor, a podcaster, and so much more. Rishad has had quite an eventful journey so far, about which he talks at length with our host, Geoffrey Ching.
