Championing general neurology

Practical Neurology Podcast

It’s the Christmas Special for 2024! Joining Amy in the studio is Dr. Steven Lewis. Current secretary general of the World Federation of Neurology, Steven is based in the United States, where he works as a general neurologist. Their conversation builds on a recent article by Dr. Bas Bloem, "Islands and bridges in healthcare: the importance of general neurology”. Listen in for insights on the differences in training and practice in the US and UK, the value of developing a network as a neurologist, and the enduring need for general neurology’s broad diagnostic approach.
