“The Intern at Work” is a Canadian internal medicine podcast written by residents for residents! The first of its kind in Canada, our podcast series seeks to connect residents all across Canada and the world by providing entertaining, practical and succinct approaches to common internal medicine illnesses. Our podcast series also aims to start conversations about everything internal medicine, from what it’s like to be an internal medicine resident, to medical education, to medical ethics and the art of medicine itself. Podcasts are released every two weeks and are meant to serve you better on the wards and on call.
