In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Scott Wait, Chief of Pediatric Neurosurgery at Levine Children’s Hospital in Charlotte, NC.

From navigating negotiations with hospitals to reflecting on what truly sustains a meaningful career, this conversation offers a practical look into the evolving landscape of pediatric neurosurgery.
