The Photon Media #RadOnc #MedEd Starter Pack
If you’re a PGY-2, you’ve now made it through the welcome parties, boot camps, and the first couple months of radiation oncology clinic. Congratulations! Or maybe you’re a seasoned PGY-5 gearing up to take on this year’s red hot job market. Maybe you’re somewhere in between.
Regardless, we have no doubt you’re learning every day. However, there is no formal curriculum for so many important things!
Enter our podcasts. Check out these favorite episodes to boost your knowledge as we head in to Fall!
What in the world is going on with the #RadOnc job market? These days, it seems impossible to get clear answers! Never fear, we went straight to the best sources and brought them to the studio for an exploration of the issues. Rad Oncs Jason Beckta, Emma Fields, Todd Scarborough, and, of course, Chirag Shah join us for my favorite episode.
For a deeper dive, you can also check out the boost episode with Todd and Nick Zaorsky discussing radiotherapy facility volumes.
I was so excited to be a guest on the first two episodes of Jason Beckta’s new podcast Out Of The Basement. We discussed jobs, contracts, work-life balance, our journeys through #RadOnc and more. If you are job searching right now, these episodes are for you!
In part 2 of our 3 part series on oral boards, Out Of The Basement host Jason Beckta and I discuss our favorite board exam and so much more. Be sure to check out parts 1 and 3, where Simul and I take Jason’s gyn onc section without studying!
New attendings, this episode is for you! If you haven’t yet heard about patient satisfaction scores, I am jealous, and you will soon. But what do they really mean?
In this episode, we are joined by Rad Onc Marsha Haley and MROQC Program Manager Melissa Mietzel to discuss all things quality and “patient sat”.
The most popular episode of The Accelerators Podcast features #RadOnc policy experts Join Luh, Constantine Mantz, Tomas Dvorak and others for a wide ranging discussion of the Radiation Oncology Alternative Payment Model. While the model is dead, payment policy is an evergreen topic. This ep will get you up to speed for our future discussions coming in Season 2.
Simul and #RadOnc resident Austin Dove discuss his review article on radiotherapy for osteoarthritis. Yes, you read that right. Listen to the podcast, read the article, then start to build this in to your practice. The treatment is rewarding, cost effective, and great for patients.
Ok, I’m really lucky. I got to be Jason’s guest again on 3 episodes on image guided radiotherapy. At just 30 minutes a piece, these are packed with high-yield info. I think they are perfect for any Rad Onc struggling to make sense of some aspects of our daily practice.
Have ideas on topics you’d like to hear on our podcasts? Reach out to Jason, Simul, Anna, or I. We’d love to hear from you!
