Cold Steel: Canadian Journal of Surgery Podcast

Dr. Bellal Joseph is a trauma surgeon and the chief of the division of trauma, surgical critical care, burns, and acute care surgery at the University of Arizona in Tucson. While it was impossible to delve into the breadth and depth of his research interests, we did explore some of our favorites with Dr. Joseph, including his ongoing investigation into new technologies like REBOA, traumatic brain injuries, and frailty in surgery. What shines through in this conversation is Dr. Joseph’s incredible authenticity, energy and passion for injured and disadvantaged patients, as well as his vision for how physicians can embrace their own brand.
