#23 ICU Doctor Interview - Medical Ethics, COVID-19, and Lifestyle

Dr. David Oxman is a Critical Care Doctor and associate professor of medicine here at Jefferson and the program director for the critical care medicine fellowship. He went to medical school at Temple, where he also completed his residency in IM. HE completed four fellowships in Infectious Diseases at Tufts, Surgical Critical Care at Harvard, Medical critical care at Hahnemann, and Medical ethics at Harvard. He is currently the medical school's ethics and professionalism thread director and runs the hospital ethics consultation service here at Jefferson. I also had the personal luxury of being in a student group led by Dr. Oxman, where we had discussions about being medical students and our hospital experiences.

    I see so much of myself in Dr Oxman. I used to work in rehab as an occupational therapy, which is heavily socially oriented. Now I’m in medicine, half way thru the course. I am heavily interested in cardiology and critical care, and I want to do both - which I haven’t heard of anyone doing so in my country. I am inspired, thank you.

    Zach it’s people like you that inspire young students like I once was to go into medicine. It’s fascinating watching your personality develop to where you just exude confidence in these videos. Congrats Doctor.

    2024 Happy New Year while eating my late lunch half of your conversation was missed on my part. Zac Highley a clever interviewer. While you as a doctor in your field of work discuss situations that the 🌎 world becomes more aware of. Especially during the recent Pandemic. Living downunder NZ. There is a huge sense of relief. Our health remains consistent. We can still self test. For those living at a faster pace and within travelling distance to a hospital emergency or a back support center. Will be eternally grateful. Thanks Bless you ❤❤❤😊

    Hi Zach! Just a little note. I think your conversational flow could benefit from you not cutting off your guests constantly while they are speaking. Sorry but it is just a little disruptive. 😊

    With my honest feeling here. I love conversational podcast where the host inserts his/hers opinions and experiences into the conversation. I found it engaging and more interesting otherwise I wouldn’t choose or like to watch Zach’s, Huberman’s, Lex’s, just to name a few. Sure this is like a dance where there is a rhythm and flow but I honestly love these episodes with two way communication. If we just let the guest speaks then might as well rid of the host and just type the questions on the screen and the podcast became just another ordinary uninteresting interview. With peace and love 💗
