In a special podcast, past SMA President Dr. Donald DiPette is joined by Dr. Don Powell, Professor Emeritus in the Department of Internal Medicine/Gastroenterology at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston. Dr. Powell is the 2021 recipient of the Dr. Robert D. and Alma W. Moreton Research Award and Commemorative Lectureship, which will be presented at SMA’s 112th Annual Scientific Assembly in Lake Buena Vista, Florida.

During the conversation, Dr. Powell discusses innovations in medicine that have changed the care of patients with gastrointestinal disease and shares insight into how medicine has changed for the better (and perhaps not so better). He also reflects on defining moments in his career and offers guidance to medical students, physicians in training, and young physicians who are the future of medicine.
