Doctors Explain How To Improve Canada's Healthcare System | VoV Ep. 115
Dr. Adam Shehata and Dr. Amir Hamid, co-hosts of the Medical Safety Podcast, reveal why Canada’s healthcare crisis isn’t simply a shortage of doctors—it’s a system that often makes safe care harder than it should be. They discuss medical errors, physician burnout, remote healthcare, the family doctor shortage, and what medicine can learn from aviation safety. They also share their unconventional journeys into medicine and explain what healthcare professionals, policymakers, and ordinary Canadians can do to help build a safer, more effective system.
