Down To The Bone

Dr Ed Baddour: A pain in the neck

Down To The Bone

Show Notes

Dr Ed Baddour joins us to get stuck into all things cervical spine — from central stenosis and disc protrusions to the difficult decisions that come with treating patients with neck pathology

We discuss the difficulties of personal injury including his Dicky Elbow and the pain of helping manage a spinal trauma service that services the largest isolated land mass in the world.

As always told with our special blend of truth, exaggeration and a large smothering of hilarious stories that have got us here.

With thanks to Hollywood Private Hospital for bringing you this episode.
