The first episode of "Catholic Health USA," a new monthly podcast that explores topics relevant to the Catholic health care ministry, is now available.
The episode focuses on the opioid epidemic and features a discussion with Dr. Fred Rottnek, a professor and director of community medicine in Saint Louis University School of Medicine's Department of Family and Community Medicine.
