Who

Dr. Corsino is a physical therapist who mainly works in ICU but is also very interested in improving diagnostic accuracy by teaching physical exam techniques. He has an MBA in healthcare administration, is the founder of a small nonprofit professional education organization, and is a writer – mostly of opinions about our American healthcare system, which usually appear in The Tennessean.

Episode Takeaways
