❓The Podcast❓

Inspired by the Diagnosis community (e.g. The Clinical Problem Solvers), Drs. Michael Arcieri (@ArcieriMichael) & Andrew Sanchez (@ASanchez_PS) present a new podcast space for Dx enthusiasts to experience diagnostic dilemmas encountered across a range of settings including the clinic, emergency department, inpatient wards, medicine consults, and MICU. From puzzling symptoms to rare conditions, we highlight cases where common diseases present in atypical ways; those moments when we’re most tempted to go “zebra hunting.” Clinicians & students are invited to bring thought-provoking cases for group discussion in our “Guestpisodes.” Submit cases to Dx.atypia@gmail.com

❓Our Mission❓

To document the diagnostic tales & growth of two new hospitalist educators, cultivating enthusiasm for & humility in the diagnostic reasoning process.
