Doctors and Litigation: The L Word

by Gita Pensa MD

The majority of physicians will be sued during their career, yet the topic is largely taboo. This podcast for physicians discusses malpractice litigation and litigation stress. Start at the introduction of Season 1, and work your way through; you’ll hear the voices of docs who have been there, and advice from experts including psychologists and attorneys.
