In this episode, we talk to pathologist Hoda Zeinab M. Amer who discusses her work with non-profits, along with her book detailing the behind-the-scenes lives of pathologists. We also open the proverbial black box of pathology and she explores the traits interested students should have if they pursue the field.

Hoda Zeinab M. Amer is a pathologist and author of Animals of Undetermined Significance.

She shares her story and discusses her KevinMD article, “Scenes from a pathology resident’s day.”

This episode is sponsored by Pattern, physician disability and life insurance made simple.

Shopping for disability insurance can be complicated and time-consuming. Wondering if you are getting the best prices and discounts while in training can make the process even more overwhelming. Pattern believes doctors have more important things to do than spend hours sorting through numerous insurance options. This is why thousands of doctors trust Pattern to help them compare and understand the insurance they are buying. They do this in three simple steps: First, request your quotes online. Second, compare your options and ask questions. And third, secure your policy. Be confident that you have the right policy so that your income is protected. With huge discounts for doctors in training and fewer requirements on labs and physicals, now is truly the best time to request your disability insurance quotes with Pattern at patternlife.com.
