Specialty Café


Are you a medical student or resident choosing your path in healthcare? Grab a coffee and settle in… this café is for you! Our hosts (med students & residents) chat with Royal College specialists and residents about their day to day lives, the reasons behind their specialty choices, the joys, the challenges, and more!  Although conversations are full of specialty insights, you’ll gain invaluable life advice about being a fulfilled and excellent clinician (and human being).  Feedspot has voted Specialty Café as one of the 10 Best Canadian Medical Podcasts.  The Royal College produces a uniquely French version of this podcast - Café des spécialités: https://cafedesspecialites.libsyn.com/.

Dr. Katie Lines, PGY4, demonstrates why Psychiatry is one of the most intellectually stimulating specialties. Settle in for an in-depth episode about the realities of a Psychiatry residency. Dr. Lines shares her passion (and huge compassion) for treating some of the most challenging presentations with not only medication, but with complimentary therapies such as psychotherapy. Join Emily Wu as she picks Dr. Lines' brain (no pun intended) about why she chose this specialty. Learn all about the different areas of practice. You'll hear some myth-busting around medical skills in Psychiatry! BTW - starting a family in residency is definitely possible.
