A Doctor's View
A Doctor’s View takes a deeper look at common medical and health-related issues, approaching each topic with clarity, honesty, and a thoughtful, reflective style.
Hosted by Dr Polyvios, the podcast connects clinical insight with everyday experience — exploring the medical facts, the psychology behind them, and how they shape everyday life.
A calm, engaging space for anyone who wants to understand health and the human experience more clearly — all from a light-hearted but opinionated doctor’s perspective.

If you have any comments or suggestions, send us a text message!
The National Health Service (NHS) is a national treasure, providing comprehensive, free and accessible healthcare for those in the United Kingdom. In recent times the NHS has become under threat of privatisation. In this episode we are joined by Dr Aislinn Macklin-Doherty an Oncology trainee and a member of the BMA committee during the junior doctor strikes and a national officer for the NHS campaign group Health Campaigns Together. Together we discuss some of the myths surrounding the NHS and whether or not privatisation is the way forward.
Thank you for listening!
