Around this time two years ago, Dr Ben McKenzie's life changed forever.
Dr McKenzie is an Emergency Physician who sadly lost his son to anaphylaxis. In this challenging conversation we discuss the events of that day, how he came to be the Team Leader of the resuscitation and some of the amazing work that he is doing now.
Working in critical care, it's hard not to be affected by this episode.
