Sunday House Call is an evidenced-based medicine and science show broadcast live from the studios of 580 CFRA in Ottawa, Canada. Its stated aim is to provide the opportunity for our guests to discuss their ideas and the basic science that led to their latest research without the need to encapsulate their life’s work into a 30 second soundbite. The show strives to provide medical information to our listeners that is credible, unbiased and backed by evidence, not anecdote. Nothing can take the place of a visit to your own doctor, but we guarantee that tuning into Sunday House Call is a prescription for useful information on living a longer, better quality of life!
