Transforming Diagnostic Stewardship Through Clinician–Lab Collaboration

In this episode of The SHEA Podcast, host Dr. Dan Morgan sits down with Dr. Jessica Zering and Dr. Robin Patel to discuss how clinicians and labs can work together, especially beyond the traditional hospital with a lab on site. Dr. Zering, an antimicrobial stewardship pharmacist working for the Washington State Department of Health, and Dr. Robin Patel, the Director of the Mayo Clinic's Infectious Diseases Research Laboratory, reflect on the ways in which the relationship between clinicians and labs can move the needle in diagnostic stewardship.
