Dr. Jenkins has had a long-standing interest in snake bite treatment and frequently speaks on the subject of treatment in wild settings. He welcomes Dr. Spencer Greene to Snake Talk for a deeper discussion on the subject of treating snake bites. They talk about the field of Medical Toxicology, what to do (and not to do) when treating a snake bite, and they go into treatment of pregnant snake bite victims. Chris introduces his friend Lisa Damron who reveals her life changing experience of receiving a rattlesnake bite while she was pregnant.
