Straight off their real-time coverage of the Fall of Crozer Health, cohosts of the award-winning 43cc podcast, Drs. Wendy Dean and Matt Ramsey, are hosting a live recording at the Pen and Pencil Club on Sunday, June 29 at 7:30 pm. Doors open at 7 pm.

43cc is an honest, fun, irreverent, and deadly serious podcast series that exposes the truth about healthcare (with a shot to dull the pain). Hosts Wendy Dean, M.D., and Matt Ramsey, M.D., take an in-depth look medicine’s machinery tearing the patient-physician relationship apart and how the medical community might stitch them back together

At the P&P, Wendy and Matt will be talking about the stories both journalists and physicians carry, inviting the audience to join in, and reminding us why "together" is better.

Wendy Dean, who comes to the P&P from Carlisle, Pa., cofounded and leads Moral Injury of Healthcare, a 501c3 nonprofit, is the author of If I Betray These Words, and cohost of the Moral Matters and WCC podcasts. She practiced emergency medicine and psychiatry, spent a decade as a US Army civilian, deeply involved in medical innovation, and was an executive in a half-billion-dollar nonprofit. When the challenges of getting high quality healthcare nearly cost her physician husband his life, she left that work to change healthcare. She is now the leading voice for reframing health worker distress to include moral injury.

Dr. Matthew L. Ramsey, of Philadelphia, is an orthopaedic surgeon subspecializing in shoulder and elbow surgery. Dr. Ramsey has held multiple leadership positions during his career as a board member, chief of service, Vice Chairman of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, and in subspecialty organizations and journals. He is committed to two ideals in reconstructive surgery of the shoulder and elbow: physician excellence and a holistic approach to patient care. He is passionate about preserving physician autonomy and physician leadership in healthcare.
