Branden talks to several experts about visiting the ER. Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel wrote a piece in the New York Times about the problem with the ER a few years ago, so we call him to ask; is there still a problem with the ER? What is the problem? 

We visit some alternatives to the much-dreaded trip to the ER, and find some surprises along the way.
