The Curbside Consult
Connecticut Children's
Connecticut Children’s presents The Curbside Consult, where once a month, for about 30 minutes, physicians take an in-depth look into a condition that is impacting their patients. Each episode will include a specialist who can further discuss each case, and a patient to elaborate on their experience. This podcast helps parents and their children learn more about common pediatric conditions. It also provides a quick way for medical professionals to learn about specific cases that may help them take better care of their patients.
