Bowel Sounds Ep. 14: Alan Leichtner – A Career in Medical Education

In this episode of Bowel Sounds, hosts Drs. Jennifer Lee and Jason Silverman talk to Dr. Alan Leichtner about how we in the pediatric GI community can have successful careers in Medical Education. He gives practical advice on how all physicians can use adult learning theories to successfully teach our trainees and patients and we talk about the subspecialty areas within medical education.
