Thursday, 11 September, 2025
Welcome to the Beyond the Scope Podcast presented by ND MD and Hippocratic Collective.This podcast continues the mission of sharing the incredible stories and experiences of students, physicians, and healthcare professionals... but this time it's all about the things all those years of medical training don’t prepare you for. The things that are beyond the scope of our practice.In this episode of Beyond the Scope, I sit down with Dr. Ricky (Dr. Richard J Brown), a double-boarded plastic surgeon who unexpectedly became a patient after a backyard grill explosion caused severe burns. He shares his perspective on transitioning from surgeon to patient, the challenges of navigating burn unit care, and the mental and physical resilience required for recovery. We also discuss how this experience deepened his empathy for patients and reinforced the importance of mindset in healing.Check out Dr. Ricky at the links below, including his own podcast and channels where he shares honest, insightful, and often entertaining perspectives on medicine and life:Dr. Ricky’s podcast and socials:TikTok: tiktok.com/@therealtiktokdoc?lang=enInstagram: instagram.com/drrichardjbrownWebsite: richardjbrownmd.comTo find all these episodes and explore shows and art from other talented medical creators, visit https://www.hippocratic-collective.com.Beyond the Scope is made in collaboration with ND MD Productions LLC and made possible by the editing and production team at Hippocratic Collective.Come say hi!Instagram:@andy_nguyen9 ( / andy_nguyen9 )@yaleanesthesiologyresidents ( / yaleanesthesiologyresidents )TikTok:@therealndmd
