Mayo Clinic Talks - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I love the Mayo Clinic Podcast! Very informative and a wide variety of topics! When I listen to this podcast I always know I will learn something new and useful!

Fantastic podcast! Dr. Chutka is an excellent host. Topics and experts are relevant and helpful. One request is to include some information about low cost treatment options for patients with financial constraints. Everything in healthcare is driven by what insurance will cover these days and so often out of pocket costs are very high for patients. As an example I really enjoyed the asthma update episode but all of the inhalers are extremely expensive and we are usually dictated by what is on the insurance formulary. I would love info on evidence based low cost alternatives that are available for each topic that is covered. May not be always ideal or newest treatments, but often what we are dealing with in primary care.

Horrible horrible ad placement. Sometimes the ads come in at twice the volume and interrupt a word or in the middle of a sentence and then the sentence just continues directly after. I understand ads are needed to help fund yet how it is presented here is ridiculous. Please keep everything the same volume so I don’t blow out my ear drums.
But the content itself is amazing, well researched, and are always great refreshers.

The content is excellent! I would appreciate a little more humor but that’s just a personal preference about podcasts.

The main issue is the ads. Way too often ads are being placed in weird spots (even mid sentence at times) rather than at natural transition points. The content of the ads also makes little sense. This is a podcast for healthcare professionals and many times the ads seem way out of touch with the audience. For example, there were many ads encouraging the audience to apply for truck driving jobs. I’d argue more attention to detail should be paid in the placement and selection of ads.
