New Faces Join the Podcast! – Austin Boos, DO and Jonathan Alessi

Jonathan Alessi and Austin Boos

In an effort to expand our message of prevention we added two new team members – Austin Boos, DO and Jonathan Alessi. Austin is currently a first year resident going into PM&R while Jonathan is a MD/PHD candidate both of whom are extremely passionate about preventive medicine. If you’ve been around for a while you’ve seen our Statistics and Study posts which have now been taken over by Austin. You also may have noticed we started posting written content on our website which we have had contributed by Jonathan!

In this episode we get to know these two better both with their personal goals, ideas in preventive medicine, and much much more. These two bring their own unique perspectives to the podcast which we always appreciate. At the end of the podcast we discuss our strategy and future direction for the podcast. If you want to learn more about the inner workings of our podcast than check this episode out!
