The Doc is in the middle of performing a procedure in the OR when he figures out something isn't right...or to be more specific, something isn't wrong.  We talk about the upsides and downsides of tele-health.  Plus, The Doc explains why he doesn't quite agree with everything in an article in the NY Times about when and why people usually see a urologist. NY Times article is here.

The Doc breaks down the many issues a patient is dealing with after they were in an accident and suffered nerve damage at the base of their spine.  We hear about how this impacts the patient's life and the choices and difficult decisions The Doc presents him to potentially help improve some of the symptoms of the injury.  Plus The Doc shares his thoughts on the current state of the business of medicine, how it's shifting for younger doctors entering the field now, and what the future of care could be for all of us.   Check out The Doc on the You Tube show Great Mythical Morning.  He had the guys in stitches (literally) - his segment starts at the 15:40 mark.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mtm4lNnYHlg Write us at:  mail@twomenandadoc.com  twitter: @twomenandadoc Got a minute?  Rate and review us on iTunes - it's so easy!  Just go here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/two-men-and-a-doc/id1464231512 Click on 'Listen on Apple Podcasts' and leave a review, rate us, and subscribe!

"The things people do," the nurse said to the Doc when they were discussing the man who had recently come into the OR.  Let's just say he had put something on and couldn't get it off... for 4 days.  That's when The Doc got the call.  Turns out this was no easy task.  The Doc takes us through it (and unfortunately for us shows us some pictures). Definitely send us your questions and we'll try to get you an answer on one of our next shows.  Would love to hear from you.  Write us at mail@twomenandadoc.com  twitter: @twomenandadoc Got a minute?  Rate and review us on iTunes - it's so easy!  Just go here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/two-men-and-a-doc/id1464231512 Click on 'Listen on Apple Podcasts' and leave a review, rate us, and subscribe!

Fertility issues are usually associated with the female but when the issue might be with the man they come to The Doc to find out why.  The Doc gives us the basics of the different possible reasons for male infertility and then gets into a very unusual case where he had to figure out why his patient had a zero sperm count, and how he helped him.

The Doc sees a patient in the ER with blood in their urine.  Since this can be for a multitude of reasons The Doc starts down the diagnostic path trying find the cause of the bleeding.  Ultimately the reason becomes obvious and the treatment is swift but the lesson of this case is loud and clear - if something isn't right, seek out treatment.

There's never a dull moment when The Doc is on call at two hospitals.  This week he takes us through two cases.  The first is an early morning call from a patient in the ER with a torsion, or twisted testicle.  Should The Doc rush over there or was it too late?  Then he gets a call about a 93 year-old woman with a potentially fatal condition that is easily treated with a standard procedure, but she has a DNR.  The Doc gives his advice but ultimately it's up to the family.  All this plus the regular distractions and jokes from the peanut gallery.   Write us at:  mail@twomenandadoc.com  twitter: @twomenandadoc Got a minute?  Rate and review us on iTunes - it's so easy!  Just go here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/two-men-and-a-doc/id1464231512 Click on 'Listen on Apple Podcasts' and leave a review, rate us, and subscribe!

Follow ups from two recent cases - an update about The Doc's son uncovers more questions; and from Episode 59 where we last knew an infection in an older man was caused by a fistula from the intestine, but were waiting to find out the biopsy results.  Then a new case - an 18 year-old comes in with severe groin pain that seemed to come out of nowhere.  After a lot of research and questions The Doc starts to narrow down the cause.

The conclusion to The Doc's emotional and exhausting journey to figure out the cause of his son's weeks long illness, labeled a 'fever of unknown origin' until a more specific diagnosis can be made.   If you haven't already, listen to Part 1 (episode 65) before listening to this episode for full context.   The Doc takes us through his son's recent illness and the harrowing string of events that occurred as a team of doctors on two coasts tried to figure the cause and treatment.  It also brought up the inevitable crossroad of being a doctor and parent and how The Doc had to navigate those two roles, sometimes realizing he needed to let the doctors do their job when his most important role was as dad and husband.

Two Men and a Doc is on a short break so here's an episode from exactly 1 year ago.  We were just over 2 weeks into the shutdown, trying to adjust to our new normal while we pondered the many unknowns in our near future.  It's an interesting snapshot of what we were all going through a year ago and the conversations we were having.  Listen in to hear what we got right, what we got wrong, and some of our more prescient thoughts.   Here's the show notes from 3/20/20: As we go into week 3 of 'Shelter in Place' the guys discuss how different people are dealing with the social distancing guidelines, why the 'end' of this phase is not the end at all, where we might expect the next spikes in cases to be, and an eye-opening conversation about what life might look like 6 months from now when nerves will still be very much on edge.
