Host Mark Steele and resident expert Dr. Dave Schneider, M.D., interview Dr. Phil Roman, an expert cardiac anesthesiologist. Dr. Roman has trained in some of the leading institutions in the world, including Johns Hopkins and Duke University. However, despite his outstanding credentials, he describes himself as an intellectual late bloomer. Born to a Belgian father and a French mother, Dr. Roman’s childhood spanned the globe before they settled in the southern United States. As a college student in his early 20s, Dr. Roman was experiencing academic ups and downs until one day, a meeting with a guidance counselor gave him the insight that he needed to find his path.
