91 - Peter Brindley - Clinical leadership, podcasting and identifying when patients are dying
My guest in this episode is Dr Peter Brindley, an intensivist and Professor of Critical Care in Edmonton, Canada.
Peter is a deep thinker, a compassionate bedside doctor, and a passionate educator, researcher, and writer about many of the human-focused topics that this podcast likes to focus on.
He was previously featured in episode 15 as well as in the Persevering Through A Pandemic series from 2021. These episodes are well worth listening to. Given he was in Australia for the Annual Scientific Meeting of the CICM, I thought I had to have him on the show again.
In this episode, Peter talks about why he’s a doctor and why he stays working where he does, before touching on a variety of topics including clinical leadership, imposter syndrome, the differing skills of the people making up our teams, efficiency, understanding when patients are dying, podcasting, wellbeing and parting advice.
Thank you for listening to Dr Peter Brindley.
