Robot Doctors

Are robot doctors really in our future? Sicker Than Your Average Health Show (STYAHS) brings you our second episode! Josh & Preet unwrap how technology has exploded in the last decade and made this a (possible) reality [1:00] before diving right into a full on debate [13:00] on why it might be possible, and why there might be things standing in the way of that very question.

Join us as we dig into the health headlines you already know and more about the ones you don’t.
