St Emlyn's in Review - October 2017

It’s great to be back podcasting again after what has been a busy few months, We’re sorry for the hiatus, but occasionally other stuff gets in the way!

Here we review some of the amazing content from the St Emlyn’s blog site from the last few weeks and generally chew the fat about the state of Emergency Medicine in the UK.
