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.

The Curious Case of the Sore Throat and Aching Muscles
A young man presents with a sore throat and aching muscles - but what could be the cause?
Ben and I dig into the possibilities, with Ben (of course) pulling out another gem from the depths of medical trivia: the Lacto-Bolo reflex. You’ll be both educated and entertained.
Got thoughts or questions? We’d love to hear from you.
