In this episode, we are joined by Stacey Stewart, CEO of Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), to discuss the ongoing fight to end impaired driving. With over 13,000 lives lost each year due to drunk driving, this issue remains a national crisis and one that is deeply personal for our family.

In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Z, a spine surgery fellow and neurosurgeon in Los Angeles. Dr. Z discusses his journey through neurosurgery, including the grueling demands of residency, the mental and physical resilience required, and the lessons he’s learned along the way. He shares the pivotal moment that inspired him to pursue neurosurgery, his experiences delivering life-changing (and sometimes heartbreaking) news to patients and families, and the evolving role of AI, augmented reality, and robotics in neurosurgery.

Dr. Brian Hoeflinger and Dr. Z also reflect on the challenges and rewards of being a neurosurgeon, the importance of sharing medical knowledge on social media, and how technology is revolutionizing patient care.
