Health podcasts When everyday people meet medical progress, it's a Health Story — the new series of podcasts from Northwell. "Our gifted doctors and researchers heal real people every day by adapting the latest medical advances," said Terry Lynam, the health system's senior vice president and chief public relations officer. "Health Story journeys with patients as they progress from illness to wellness." TV and radio broadcaster David North hosts and narrates the monthly series. Check it out at bit.ly/health-podcast. In more news about health podcasts, The Fix pulls back the curtain on opioid and heroin addiction in metropolitan New York. Northwell Health supported the GroundTruth Project journalists so they could produce the series. It also gave GroundTruth reporters extensive access to the health system's opioid task force, clinicians who treat addiction and community members touched by the scourge, said Mr. Lynam. "You never know what will happen when you open yourself up to scrutiny," Mr. Lynam said, "but we saw this as an opportunity to highlight the painstaking work of Northwell's opioid task force." Hear unvarnished reporting on the opioid outbreak at bit.ly/the-fix-podcast. Look North is published by the Public Relations Department of Peconic Bay Medical Center (516-321-6701).
