This week we have TWO extremely special guests!
The first guest is one who is very well-known to all three of the guys! Sam's son, Gavin, joined the guys for the conversation with our SECOND guest!
Retired anesthesiologist & author, Dr. David Alfery came into the #Lounge to share stories from his book, and his career!

His book, "Saving Grace: What Patients Teach Their Doctors about Life, Death, and the Balance in Between," is available on Amazon, and it talks about experiences from his years in the OR.

The guys ask David about many different aspects of his being a doctor.
  1. How did the first time you lost a life affect you?
  2. How has technology advanced and made anesthesiology a more precise science?
  3. What is something you learned from a patient who you knew was going to pass?
You can hear the passion and love in his voice! David was an absolute pleasure! There are many different topics, and we think you're going to love our visit with Dr. David Alfery!

About "Saving Grace"
These are secret worlds known only to the doctors and nurses who work in them. For 36 years Dr. David Alfery was a cardiothoracic anesthesiologist in Nashville, TN. He brings you into a hidden world of medicine as it has never before been seen. You will witness the exhilaration a physician feels when a life is miraculously saved, the terror when a life is on the line, the shock of an unexpected demise, the grace of patients' evidence at the end of life, and much more. SAVING GRACE illustrates the shared humanity of the bond between doctors and their patients. You will come to view your own doctor in a new light. It will bring into focus the fact that, sooner or later, each of us will die. More importantly, it will forever change the way you live.
