In this Episode 34 of The MSK Minute, I continue the conversation, from Part 1, with Senthil Radhakrishnan, PA-C.  Throughout both episodes, we discuss his beginnings in India, growing up in a family of ten generations of medical practitioners, his prior career as a physical therapist (physiotherapist), immigrating to the US and becoming a physician assistant.  Not only that, but his rise through the ranks at Duke University Medical Center to become Administrative Chief PA in Neurosurgery under the renowned neurosurgeon Allan Friedman, MD and Director of the Duke University Surgical Residency Program for PAs.  Oh yeah, he also completed his maiden novel, "I Have No Earthly Idea" in 2019. 
     I had an absolute blast, sitting down with the man known as "The Mayor of Duke", and I know you will enjoy listening to and learning from our conversation.
