Chest Pain & a Critical Decision: Our Most Memorable Case Yet
In this episode, Ben and I discuss a high-stakes Same Day Emergency Care Case—a patient presenting with chest pain and the critical decision I made that could have led to devastating consequences.
This case has stayed with me, and we break down the challenges of clinical decision-making, the weight of responsibility in acute care, and the moments that shape us as medical professionals.
Join us for an in-depth discussion on chest pain assessment, missed diagnoses, and the tough calls that define a career in medicine.
