We're hoping that our real-life clinical pearls and discussions will help you stay up to date

provider. And now, on to the show. Welcome to episode 36 of Helix Talk. I'm your co-host Dr. King.

0:35.1

I'm Dr. Schumann. And I'm Dr. Patel. And before we get started with

0:38.3

today's episode, we wanted to have one brief amendment to our previous episode, episode 34,
