911 - Emergency Talk Radio . . . brought to you by the American College of Emergency Physicians provides important information about life in the ER... and how it affects you or your loved ones. Some of the "best medicine" is being practiced in America's emergency rooms and we bring you the top guests in the field of emergency medicine and trauma care.
Hosted by board certified emergency physician, expert, and media personality Dr. Leigh Vinocur, MD. She is a national spokesperson for the American College of Emergency Physicians.

This show touches on topics that affect us all.
