Synopsis

Notably, he started a uterine fibroid embolization program alongside the Division of Vascular and Interventional Radiology. He also discusses caring for an underserved population in rural Kentucky may look like, in addition to factors that influenced his decision to practice in an academic versus community-based setting. Lastly, Dr. Hoffman highlights the role of podcasting and collaboration in medicine, which inspired his involvement in BackTable OBGYN.
