Home of Medicine with Dr Amie Burbridge and Dr Ben Lovell
Welcome to the Home of Medicine podcast with Dr Amie Burbridge and Dr Ben Lovell, in association with the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh.
Each episode explores real clinical cases, with a special focus on how cognitive biases shape our medical decision-making.
We created Home of Medicine to share the highs and lows of life in the medical profession, but above all, to bring connection, insight and joy.

Home of Medicine with Dr Amie Burbridge and Dr Ben Lovell
Overdose
This episode comes all the way from a very snowy Northern Sweden.
I was at the European School of Internal Medicine - Winter School, and was very fortunate to meet Dr Fraz Mir, a Consultant Physician in Acute Medicine and Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Cambridge, UK. He is also an Affiliated Assistant Professor in the Department of Medicine, University of Cambridge.
In this episode we discuss a case of an individual presenting to hospital after taking an overdose.
I apologise for the background noise, we were recording in a hotel.
