About this listen
Dr. Mark James trains for emergencies—underwater at 250 feet deep. In this fascinating episode of The Interesting MD, he joins host Dr. Rob Beck to share his passion for technical diving and how it overlaps with his career in anesthesiology and intensive care.
From cold-water dives in British Columbia to cave and wreck diving around the world, Dr. James offers insights into mixed gases, dive planning, and the human factors critical for staying safe—both underwater and in the hospital.
He also shares how diving helped him build stronger family connections, especially during the pandemic, and offers tips for doctors who want to get started in scuba.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about high-performance teamwork, extreme hobbies, or the unexpected ways physicians find meaning outside of medicine. 🌊🎧
