Our guest is Dr. Adam Cifu, an award-winning medical educator and author.  Dr. Cifu is a Master in the Academy of Distinguished Medical Educators at The University of Chicago.  He has been selected as a Favorite Faculty Member by the graduating class of students 14 times.  He is the author of Symptom to Diagnosis a manual on diagnostic reasoning, and co-author with Dr. Vinay Prasad of Ending Medical Reversal: Improving Outcomes, Saving Lives, one of the blockbuster medical books of the last few years.
