90 - Andrew Holt - Dealing with a progressive condition towards the end of a long & supportive career

Mastering Intensive Care

Mastering Intensive Care is back after a long hiatus between episodes, and a fun divergence into a series about at athletic adventure.

This episode features Dr Andrew Holt, a highly experienced intensivist at Flinders Medical Centre in Adelaide, who was one of the mentors who significantly shaped my career.

You’ll discover why Andrew was pivotal in my journey, what he sees as the key aspects of a good intensivist, what he has done in coaching and supporting trainees, how he was nearly waylaid by an early career mishap, and what's been profoundly challenging him in recent years.

This conversation is personal, candid, sombre and essential listening - even if it has taken me longer to publish than I would have liked.

I’m grateful to Andrew for courageously and vulnerably sharing his recent difficulties in amongst some valuable lessons and wisdom.

Thank you for listening to Dr Andrew Holt.
