Concussion with Dr Charlotte Durand

On this weeks episode I sat down and chatted with the amazing and very talented Dr Charlotte Durand. Charlotte is an Emergency Doctor with a passion for exercise, sport and a true lover of the great outdoors. This episode was focused around the topic of Concussion and in my opinion is a great episode for not only clinicians but for parents, families an those interested. We talked about CTE, the history of CTE, brain neurochemistry and how we approach concussion in the ED. 

There is a trigger warning on this episode as Charlotte and myself do talk about themes such as suicide and domestic violence.
