I have been a nurse in the Trauma Surgical ICU for 7 years. With this podcast I have gained insight on the surgeon’s perspective but also on the perspective of the team as a whole. I realize that my ACS level 1 Trauma center has a long way to go- I enjoy keeping up on what is current practice through this podcast and hope to improve my own practice.

Was excited to find a trauma podcast. Instead get no actionable information. Feels like “leadership” propaganda.

Really enjoying this podcast on my trauma critical care rotation! Very Relevant.

Very relevant, informative & practical. As an ER trauma nurse, I can apply the knowledge right away. Thank you for your dedication ❤️

Amazing podcast with great guests and a lot of insight into issues we face today providing trauma care

I have been a SICU nurse in a teaching hospital for years - finally some real teaching.Look forward to Friday’s for a new session. 🙏 Welcome back Dr Kim- looking forward to more education for ICU nurses. 🙏

Dr. Kim is absolutely killing it with this podcast. He breaks down acute care surgery topics in such organized and digestible way. The guests he has on are giants in trauma and/or critical care. Been listening to medical podcasts for quite a while now and this is bar none my favorite and most informative. Keep it up please!

As a medical student who just completed a critical care rotation, this podcast really gave me “life.” Dr. Kim is truly easy to listen to; with clear and concise description of concepts and rationales. I still listen while driving, cooking, taking walks etc. I look forward to more episodes!

As someone who struggles to learn through podcasts, I have found that Trauma ICU Rounds has become one of, if not the only, podcast I have found myself genuinely understanding and retaining information from. Dr. Kim is able to provide tangible and absorbable understandings of the tenets of critical care medicine, and includes many guests that help keep the podcast engaging and exciting. Keep on making them!

This podcast is a wonderful resource for building an essential foundation and understanding integral aspects of ICU care. Dr. Kim is able to skillfully dissect complicated topics and make it simple and easy to understand for the listener. Furthermore, this podcast spans a variety of topics and also includes discussions with other established physicians. I would highly recommend this for anyone in medicine. I am looking forward to future episodes!

This really is the best podcast. The podcast covers variety of topics with great guest speakers. Dr. Kim is wonderful, knowledgeable, well spoken, educated and relevant. I especially appreciate when he asks the guest speakers about their procedures and how they handle situations. The professional conversation that follows is a breath of fresh air, you can tell how much they respect each other even when their procedures varies from one another. Keep up the great work, you have a fan following that appreciates your work, your efforts and your enthusiasm for medical education.

So ready for anything that comes into the trauma bay! Thanks, Dr. Kim.

Great job Dr. Kim! I’ve been shamelessly distributing your podcast to my fellow surgical residents. Just saw Ogilvies the other week and felt extra equipped because of your content!

If you’re even remotely interested in acute care surgery or emergency medicine, I can’t recommend this podcast highly enough. I’m currently an EMT studying pre-med, so these podcasts are a steep learning curve at times. Dr. Dennis Kim is an excellent instructor and interviewer; he’s succinct, organized, and still humble as he pulls from a wealth of knowledge. You’ll find yourself listening to episode after episode in no time. Much of what I see at the level I trauma facility I work in leaves me eager to learn more and understand the “why” behind the care that is provided. This podcast is an invaluable resource that I’ve shared with fellow techs and nurses who also want to deepen their knowledge of trauma care. It has allowed me to become a better student of medicine. I’m equipped to ask better questions when I get to work with surgeons in the ED. They, in turn, light up at the chance to share what they know. Big shout out to Dr. Kim and the whole team behind Trauma ICU Rounds. Keep the content coming!

Cannot state enough how helpful this series has been for me. I recently completed my Trauma Surgery rotation and was pulling a lot of my knowledge from listening to this podcast. Dr. Kim succinctly breaks down concepts in clinically relevant terms so I am learning a lot while still on the go!

As a surgery resident, I really enjoy each episode of Trauma ICU rounds. The subjects are always topical and immediately relevant to both my education and clinical practice. I appreciate the presentation of both evidence-based practices and technical pearls from content experts contributing to the show. The episodes are long enough to provide robust information on topics without becoming long winded, making it a perfect podcast to listen to while commuting to and from the hospital.

I’m a clinical year PA student interested in critical care and trauma, and this podcast has only reinforced that interest. Dr. Kim succinctly explains even the most difficult topics and his style of presentation always keeps me focused. I highly recommend this podcast to any medical professional who is seeking an in-depth understanding of the pathophysiology and management of critically ill patients.

Listening to Dr. Kim's rounds syndicated internationally feels like when your favorite band gets discovered and you hear them on the radio. I have had the absolute privilege of traning under Dr. Kim whether treating the critically ill ICU patient, consulting on the ED patient needing emergency general surgery, and watching him orchestrate the Trauma Bay during a massive resuscitation. It has been remarkable seeing the lessons of his podcasts translated into real life cases. Dr. Kim has an incredible gift of bringing evidence based care to urgent and emergent scenarios. Dr. Kim is truly a titan of trauma sugery and these podcast episodes are a gift. As one of his residents, I have to say you are very lucky to get Dr. Kim's bedside teaching right to your ear any time you want!

TraumaICU rounds is one of my favorite medical podcasts for trauma & critical care! As a medical student, it’s hard to find time for anything other than studying but listening to Dr. Kim’s podcast is my go to and keeps me motivated to learn more! Dr. Kim has a way of engaging the listeners mind to think more critically by incorporating research findings and explaining difficult concepts simply. You can tell he is super passionate about teaching others just by level of detail and attention he puts into presenting each episode. If you are looking for high quality content that is actually interesting, relevant and easy to follow, this is the podcast for you!! I guarantee this podcast will be helpful during my medical education and cannot wait to share with classmates and colleagues.

Dr. Kim is an outstanding teacher and educator! It has been an honor to learn from him for the past few years. He has a talent for breaking down complicated topics into simple, digestible pieces. Highly recommend, and looking forward to future episodes!

I HIGHLY recommend Trauma ICU rounds to any medical student or resident interested in building a foundation for understanding core principles in critical care medicine. Dr. Dennis Kim is an experienced clinical educator on the faculty at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and director of the surgical ICU at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center. Along with thousands of other trainees, I’ve been privileged to learn under Dr. Kim in the classroom as a student at UCLA’s David Geffen School of Medicine, and on the trauma service as a resident at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, a Level 1 Trauma Center for LA’s South Bay. Trauma ICU Rounds succinctly delivers key clinical pearls in management of ICU patients and ties them to core concepts of systems physiology. His ability to simplify and break down basic principles in ICU management and explain them in terms of core anatomy and pathophysiology promotes retention of material through understanding. Dr. Kim brings a unique surgical perspective to intensive care, with decades of experience as a trauma surgeon and clinical faculty at an academic Level 1 trauma center. Trauma ICU rounds has helped me immensely on my critical care rotations during internship and I recommend it for any student or resident regardless of speciality.

Dr. Kim, excellent explanation and great radio voice. - Jimmy, Surgical Technician HARBOR-UCLA

This was a fantastic organized review of Resp. Failure for me. Could you do one with a focus on pediatrics?

I am a PA student currently in my clinical year, and I listen to this podcast while driving to and from rotations. Dr. Kim does a great job breaking down difficult topics, and has inspired me to continue to utilize this podcast even after I finish school. I guarantee once you start to listen you won’t want to stop! I can’t wait to share this podcast with my current classmates and other medical professionals!

Worth your time regardless of level of training. Highly recommend to anyone caring for trauma/ACS patients.

I am a PA student in my clinical year and I started listening to Dr. Kim’s podcast on my drives around town. Truly, I feel like I am receiving the greatest level of medical education with every following episode and I highly encourage every one of my peers to take the time and listen!

As a medical student, I am always trying to find ways to study outside of my apartment (when I am driving, exercising, etc.), and this podcast is a goldmine! The episodes have made me enthusiastic about these topics which makes learning them so much easier! My absolute favorite one currently is the Coagulation episode with Dr. Simms. I cannot believe how much I learned in an hour, and have spread the word to many of my classmates regarding this channel. Looking forward to future episodes!

I really enjoyed how in-depth Dr. Kim goes into his topics as it helps me understand and realize what level of detail and thought process one must have to understand a topic instead of just straight memorization. Definitely a podcast that I will return to during my time as a student and when I am out practicing.

Dr. Kim is a master educator, and his ability to break down concepts into their digestible components is apparent in this podcast series. His work here will serve as an asset for learners of all levels for years to come.

Dr. Kim explains difficult concepts in an easy, manageable way that students can comprehend and grow from.

Thanks very much Dr Kim for sharing your knowledge, this podcast helped me so much during my clinical rotation, amazing.

I wanted to thank you for taking the time to talk about these topics. This is a great podcast.

Interesting topics, Dr. Kim!

Excellent and easy to understand!

I am PGY-2 and this was both a great help as I started in the ICU but also fantastic to keep up on new topics. Really appreciate it!

Trauma ICU rounds is an excellent teaching tool to use while in surgery residency training. It is thorough and helps residents understand the underlying data that supports what we do in the ICU. Extremely helpful and informative.

Dr. Kim is a master of the ICU. His reviews are thorough and easy to follow. Many are in bite sized portions that make them easy to consume on the way to work. As a surgical critical care fellow these episodes have created a great foundation from which to base my learning. I highly recommend this podcast to surgical residents, surgical critical care fellows, and medical students who have a strong interest in the field.

Really nice podcast

I’m a med student applying to surgical residencies this year with the aspiration of becoming a trauma surgeon. This podcast is easy to understand, concise and has been extremely value especially when we were pulled off rotations earlier this year. Thank you Dr. Kim!

The most excellent trauma surgeon!

Reviews key and important concepts in surgical education in a way that makes it so easy to understand. Great speakers also!!

Love Dr. Kim!

I am going to be a trauma surgeon. I enjoy this podcast, as the material is up-to-date and will help me prepare.

Extremely educational and easy to understand and follow. -DTsis

Great podcast, Dr. Kim! -Kira

I have really enjoyed listening to the in depth teaching Dr. Kim provides in this podcast on a variety of essential ICU and trauma topics. He not only reviews pathophysiology, but provides clinical pearls of wisdom that can be applied to improving patient care. I believe his podcast should be integrated into new resident training as it will really help the residents provide Evidence Based Practice. I think this podcast is also good for experienced clinicians looking to brush up on their knowledge as well. I would also like to add that the sound quality of the podcast is very clear and is the perfect thing to listen to on your drive to and from work.

Thank you Dr Kim I’m enjoying listening to you speak Thank you for sharing your knowledge And it’s definitely REFRESHING listening to your podcasts keeps my mind on Trauma care gives me something to focus on rather than all the craziness going on in the news right now. Great way to spend my Friday morning.
