Esteemed retinal surgeon and accomplished author, Dr. Andrew Lam joined us on the show to discuss multiple foundational stories to explain how modern cardiology came to be. This comes from a chapter out of his most recent book, The Masters of Medicine which also contains other stories about the most important innovations and discoveries from a variety of medical specialties.
We'll talk about how they first figured out how to open up cardiac arteries. We'll talk about early open heart surgery. We'll also touch on the history of heart transplantation. There are some incredible personalities in the history of these things, so we'll highlight a few on this stroll through early to modern cardiology!
