Doctors and Litigation: The L Word - Podcast Rankings and reviews

This podcast reminds us of our humanity, of the gray areas in medicine, and of the immense pressure we carry as we care for patients in a system that is woefully understaffed and dysfunctional. Should be mandatory listening for all medical trainees to prepare them for the legal and emotional realities of malpractice, and spark conversations about process oversight and system reforms. Bravo to Dr. Pensa who was able to sublimate her traumatic 12 year odyssey into this precious resource for the medical community. 👏👏👏

This podcast is a must listen for all physicians. It is incredibly engaging and thoughtfully compiled. It provides practical information but also feels like a shoulder to cry on. Every single episode is worth a listen. Thank you, Dr. Pensa!

My colleague recommended this to our legal department for the benefit of our witnesses. Not only did I thoroughly enjoy it from a defense attorney perspective, but it really resonated with me and stories I’ve heard from clients over the last two decades about the mental health toll litigation took on them. It is a must listen to for both attorneys and doctors involved in medical malpractice cases. Very nicely done Dr. Pensa!

Entertaining and informative. Incredibly well done. This is a ‘must listen’ for all medical professionals. It’s so good that I really think it could appeal to a much larger audience. I would really love to see it repackaged as an in-depth ‘serial’ type show exposing the terrible side of medical malpractice litigation to the general public. Especially in states like Illinois that desperately need medical malpractice reform.
