Neurophobia, or the "fear of clinical neurology amongst medical students and resident doctors," is a widely known and accepted phenomenon within the medical community. This podcast will provide an overview of the history and prevalence of the term, followed by an engaging discussion, between three Neurologists, about tackling the growing issue of Neurophobia. In this episode, we will feature Drs. Blake Buletko, Ahmed Itrat, and Michael Kentris.
Dr. Blake Buletko is a vascular neurologist at the Cleveland Clinic. He completed his residency and fellowship training at the Cleveland Clinic and was the former medical director of their mobile stroke program. In addition to his clinical responsibilities, Dr. Buletko serves as an Assistant Professor at the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University and is the current Program Director of the Adult Neurology Residency program for the Cleveland Clinic.
Dr. Itrat graduated from the Aga Khan University of Health Sciences in Pakistan, followed by his neurology residency training, and vascular neurology fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic which he completed in 2015. He is currently a staff neurologist with the Cleveland Clinic and serves as a medical director of stroke at Cleveland Clinic Akron General, along with serving as the lead for neurology education. His interests include clinical research on stroke mechanisms, as well as quality improvement initiatives for stroke.
Dr. Michael Kentris is a neurologist in Youngstown, OH. He completed residency at Wright State University and a clinical neurophysiology fellowship at Vanderbilt University. He has helped develop and been one of the primary narrators for the journal Continuum's "Read Aloud" program as well as recording his own medical education-themed podcast, "The Neurotransmitters.”
The Neurophilia Podcast is hosted by Nupur Goel, a fourth-year medical student at Northeast Ohio Medical University.
