Humanitarian Surgery with Dr David Nott | Pager Podcast

David Nott, a consultant vascular and general surgeon at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London, joins us to discuss practicing surgery in disaster and conflict zones. David has joined dozens of humanitarian missions to countries such as Bosnia, Haiti, and Syria in the last 25 years with organisations such as MSF, and the ICRC. He is also the author of the best-seller 'War Doctor', which documents his life work and experiences. What are the ethics surrounding treating combatants? How do teamwork and decision making change in 'austere' environments? What are the skills needed for humanitarian work? Can the humanitarian doctor advocate for non-combatants in geopolitics? These topics and more are discussed in the episode!
