This past Sunday (September 20), we were thrilled to be joined by Dr. Paula M. Termuhlen (below), the Chief of the Division of Surgical Oncology and Director of the General Surgery Residency Program at the Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine (BSOM).

Dr. Termuhlen spoke with us about the difficulties and rewards of treating cancer patients, noting that a physician must convey to the patient and their family a balance of "hope with honesty" -- hence the title of the episode. She also shared her personal reasons for being so invested in the field of surgical oncology. In addition, Dr. Termuhlen discussed topics such as resident work hours, academic dishonesty, and the process of selecting fourth year medical students to enter a surgical residency -- a process she undertakes each year as Residency Director.
It was a great interview and episode, so we encourage you to listen to the podcast if you missed it live. An additional highlight of this episode was a brief conversation about co-host Lakshman Swamy's recent skydiving appearance!
