Description

If you ever find yourself in the ER up in NYC, I hope you get to meet Dr. Siri Chamarti, MD.  She's cool, she's smart and she's got "MD" after her name.  She is also an Instagram sensation with 20K+ followers at last count.  She's a foodie, world traveler and has mad ultrasound trivia skills, and she's totally non-judgmental if you get foreign objects lost in your body.  (More on that later).  

**(Note this interview was recorded in January 2021.  COVID-19 information may have been updated since then).**

Included in this conversation:

• Reality of being an ER doctor
• What the ER really has to do for you
• Typical kind of patients ER docs see
• Is the TV portrayal of doctors accurate?
• How COVID-19 changed things
• Health insurance issues ER docs encounter
• Misconceptions about Emergency Medicine practice
• Real life examples of ER cases 
• That time Dr. Siri had to drain a prolonged erection
• Losing foreign objects in your body and other ER oddities 
• What is the ER doc REALLY thinking about you?
• For my lawyer friends: Do doctors really have to be good at math?
• "Disaster Medicine"
•  Vaccine hesitancy 
• COVID risks vs. Vaccine risks
• The one job every aspiring doctor should have
