253. CSIM Special Episode- Internists can Help the Planet, Part 2
About this episode
Up to 30% of all healthcare offers no clinical value to patients. Reducing this care has the co-benefit of decreasing healthcare's carbon footprint.
In this special CSIM episode, host Dr. Zahra Merali sits down with guests Dr. Billy Silverstein @WKSilverstein (General Internist, University of Toronto) and Dr. Owen Luo @OwenLuo5 (Internal Medicine Resident, McGill University) to discuss 4 of the Choosing Wisely Canada’s climate-conscious recommendations (https://choosingwiselycanada.org/climate/). They were integral in creating these recommendations, and have a wealth of practical tips about how we can implement them into our own practice!
