The Michael Rothman Podcast

Think "Prairie Home Companion" and Jean Shephard and life or death! The goal is: to educate, to help us all move the needle in the delivery of quality care, to interview important guests, to reach a wide audience, to have some fun, but always with the data to back it up. After a career in mathematical modeling, looking at everything from peanut butter consumption, to birthing rooms for Guide dog puppies, to following Cortes' trail across the Southwest via lead isotope concentrations in lead shot, Dr. Michael Rothman, with a PhD in quantum chemistry, tackles healthcare. It is not so unusual, but this story started with a tragedy. Now with 20+ years of working with physicians and nurses and executives, and creating a start-up and a company, and going through an acquisition, Michael shares his insights. And you'll find out why the podcast is called "The Michael Rothman"... apologies to all the other Michael Rothman's out there! I know that you're all wonderful!
