About Surgery 101
From the publisher's feed
Welcome to Surgery 101, a podcast series produced with the help of the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada. These 10-to-20-minute episodes serve as brief introductions or reviews of basic surgical concepts for medical students. Every episode is divided into chapters and concludes with several key points to summarize the topic. New episodes are published every Friday. We are always keen to receive your feedback and are accepting suggestions for additional topics.
CREATORS & SUPPORT: Created by Dr. Parveen Boora and Dr. Jonathan White, and supported by the Department of Surgery at the University of Alberta with the assistance of the Surgery 101 Experts of Edmonton.
NOTE TO EXPERTS: Please note that these podcasts are only intended as brief introductions for medical students—we cannot delve into advanced surgical nuances in a short podcast. We encourage listeners to supplement learning by seeing patients, assisting at surgeries, and reading widely!
