About this listen
What do surgery and helicopter flying have in common? More than you think. 🛠️🚁 In this episode of The Interesting MD, Dr. Rob Beck catches up with Dr. Patrick Ryan, a surgeon and helicopter pilot, to explore how aviation became his passion—and how it helps him stay grounded (emotionally) while lifting off (literally).
Dr. Ryan walks listeners through the realities of helicopter training, from cost and licensing to emergency maneuvers like autorotation. He shares behind-the-scenes stories of learning to fly, teaching others, and preparing for helicopter tours over Nashville.
More than just a technical deep dive, this episode is a reminder of how powerful hobbies can be in preventing burnout and reconnecting with joy. A great listen for healthcare professionals—or anyone curious about what it takes to get airborne.
