Manage episode 336257409 series 3369812
This episode focuses on Drs. Olen and Danae Netteburg. Dr. Danae Netteburg is an obstetrician gynecologist and Dr. Olen Netteburg is an emergency medicine physician. They both work at a remote hospital and are raising their family in Chad (Africa). Due to the demands of the job, they both also function as surgeons, internists, family medicine doctors, and hospital administrators. Their work as physicians and parents is 24/7/365 and they both handle it with grace. In this episode, we discuss some of their experiences as physicians in Chad, some interesting patient cases (a knife in the face, an arrow through the eye, and more), creative ways to stop a nosebleed, and their harrowing experience of almost losing two of their children to rabies. Listen in - this is an episode you won't want to miss!
