A nurse and a doctor walk into a lab...
A nurse and a doctor walk into a lab... is hosted by Holly Sims and Bhuchitra Singh, two best friends who are sometimes qualified to discuss the latest topics in health care.
We will release two episodes each month, one of which will feature a guest – including experts in the field of medicine and research – for the times when we realize that our expertise on a topic is no better than an encyclopedia entry.
In each episode we aim to provide you with some new information and perspectives on the topic. If not, we hope you are entertained by the often-humorous, sometimes-ridiculous banter of two friends – a nurse and a doctor who share a love of medicine, research, and people.

Listen Before Spitting... Direct-to-Consumer Genetic Testing: Interview with Kamaria Cayton Vaught, MD
In Episode 17, we speak with Kamaria Cayton Vaught, MD, a reproductive endocrinologist who specializes in infertility, medical genetics, and genomics at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. We discuss the ethics of genetic testing, the pros and cons of sending your DNA to ancestry databases, and consent and counseling issues with direct-to-consumer genetic testing. Holly laments about DNA testing her rescue dog and learning that she accidentally adopted a designer breed (she still adores him).
