Welcome to our first ever podcast!
We’re excited to bring you a fresh look at the last month's most relevant and interesting general medicine articles.

Get in touch!
@JournalSpotting or journalspotting@gmail.com
We’d love to hear from you: what you thought of the show, what you would like to hear, and if you have any articles that you would like us to share with the general medicine world!
A wise man at your ARCP once said: "It didn't happen unless you've filled in a feedback form". (But seriously, we'd love to hear what you think!)
