Regent College Podcast: Episode 118

Covenant or Contract: The Practice of Medicine with Dr. Jennie McLaurin

Today we spoke with alumna and pediatrics specialist Dr. Jennie McLaurin. The practice of medicine today poses all kinds of challenges: the pressure to prioritize efficiency, the tension between specialization and whole-person care, and the challenge to maintain a patient-centred approach. Can these problems be fixed? How does the understanding of medicine as a moral art-–not just a scientific one––impact patient care? And what does Christian theology contribute to our understanding of the doctor-patient relationship? Join us for this practical and important conversation about medicine today.
