Radio Rounds Medical Talk Show
RADIO ROUNDS RETURNS AUGUST 9 FOR SECOND SEASON
Radio Rounds is the first-ever medical radio talk show produced entirely by medical students, and having completed a successful first season in the spring of 2009, the ‘Rounds’ crew is headed back to the airwaves this fall!
The second season of Radio Rounds premieres on Sunday August 9 at 12pm ET, and the live show can be accessed at the show’s website (link above).
Radio Rounds is produced by medical students at the Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine in Dayton, Ohio. In addition to airing live every Sunday from 12pm to 1pm ET, all shows are also available for free on iTunes. Podcasts of the initial eight episodes of Radio Rounds this past spring were downloaded over 5,000 times, as featured guests included nationally-renowned physicians such as Dr. Rachel Naomi Remen (creator of “The Healer’s Art”), Dr. Amy Reed (vascular surgeon, Cincinnati), and Dr. Alvin Jackson (Director of the Ohio Department of Health).
The special guest for the August 9 premiere will be Dr. Brian Cole, Head Team Physician of the Chicago Bulls and Professor of Orthopedics at Rush University Medical Center.
