Top Podcast Picks from Overlake Providers

Like a book club but for podcasts, participants in the Overlake Provider Podcast Club choose a podcast to listen to and then meet up to discuss it. According to John R. Nelson, MD, “The overarching goal is to help form connections between providers who might not know one another well.” A “staff picks” poster hangs in the provider lounge for others to take note.
