The Doctor Family

Cambridge Medical Partners

We host a family medicine podcast discussing health issues affecting every family. We are a married couple of family doctors practicing in the UK. We will give what we feel is a more accurate and balanced coverage of the health and medicine issues in the news and explain these issues in plain English! We also work to debunk health myths we come across in the media and online. Join us on our journey
