“Neurology is closer to internal medicine than any other specialty. Justifiably, neurologists are reverting back to their role as internists of the nervous system”-Jose Biller.
In this episode of the Neurophilia Podcast, we discuss the relationship between neurology and medicine, how to improve communication between primary and secondary care, specialization in medicine, what makes a "good consult," and the importance of patient advocacy in all fields of medicine. We are joined by Neurophilia Co-host, Dr. Blake Buletko, and two very special guests, Dr. Deborah Plate and Dr. Austin Fredrickson.
