UnfilterED #13: Dr. Nadia Tremonti

This week's episode features a fascinating conversation with Dr. Nadia Tremonti, medical director for the pediatric palliative care program at Children's Hospital of Michigan in Detroit. Dr. Tremonti was the featured physician in an independent short film Palliative and subsequent New York Times shorter excerpt Dying in your Mother's Arms that explore her work with terminally ill pediatric patients. From conversations of religion's role in processing disease to the physician's role in alleviating suffering for patients and their families, Nick and Nadia explore the existential ground in this thought-provoking segment.
