On the November 11th edition of Your Call, we’ll have a conversation with the Norwegian surgeon Dr. Mads Gilbert about his new book Night in Gaza. Dr Gilbert chronicles his daily experiences in Al-Shifa hospital during Israel’s 2014 assault on Gaza.
He says the medical profession should not be detached from society. Medicine should be a peaceful weapon against oppression and injustice and a force for good. So what is like to be doctor in a war zone? Join the conversation on the next Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.
Guest:
Mads Gilbert, prominent Norwegian surgeons, a specialist in anesthesiology and head of the emergency medicine department at the University Hospital of North Norway
