#226: Medicine Men and Doctors: Common Challenges with Dr. Robert Klitzman
Manage episode 467208027 series 3099392
I sit down with Dr. Robert Klitzman—director of the Masters of Bioethics program at Columbia University—to delve into the complex intersections of medicine, ethics, and culture. In this episode, we explore fascinating stories from Papua New Guinea, the cultural roots of disease understanding, the profound vulnerability of patients, and the challenges of doctor-patient communication. Dr. Klitzman’s insights on holistic medicine and the ethical dilemmas in modern healthcare are both thought-provoking and deeply human.
