Real cases. Real thinking. Real medicine. A podcast exploring clinical puzzles…
A podcast in association with the Royal College of Physicians Edinburgh.
Whether you’re a healthcare professional or a curious student, we provide high-quality audio episodes paired with deep-dive transcripts and interactive tools to sharpen your clinical reasoning.
Home of Medicine is a podcast about medical diagnosis and clinical reasoning. In each episode, hosts Amie and Ben – both medical consultants in Acute and general Internal Medicine in the UK – take turns to present an interesting or challenging case. The other host works their way through the case, thinking out loud and describing their diagnostic reasoning, and tries to reach the diagnosis.
