  • Mandatory listening for cardiologists and cardiology APPs

    It has become a weekly ritual for me—and for many of the cardiologists in my practice—to listen to Dr. John Mandrola’s This Week in Cardiology every Friday afternoon.

    Dr. Mandrola provides a thoughtful, critical appraisal of the latest clinical trials that often goes far beyond the enthusiastic interpretations frequently seen in journals, press releases, and social media.

  • Trainee appropriate

    This podcast is perfect for a trainee. I just finished residency and chief year; I find this podcast digestible with the right mix of clear breakdowns of trials and statistics within them with the sort of folksy advice and soapboxes you want from an attending. I am genuinely developing a sense of good and bad trials and approaches to clinical medicine. This is not milquetoast, this is a real doctor teaching.

  • Excellent resource

    Dr. Mandrola is an excellent speaker and brings important information from current trials. I love his “but…but” comments—it’s always a clue to listen more closely as an astute observation is about to be shared.

  • Top Notch

    Love this podcast. Dr Mandrola reviews the most important cardiology trials every week and adds his commentary that are very insighful. Easy way to keep up with the ever changing field of cardiology.

  • Strong work

    Fabulous podcast. Pragmatism in medicine and some appropriate cynicism regarding industry involvement in CV medicine. Patient centered evidence based discussions.
