Doug delivered the night’s final presentation at Health Talks: Bold Ideas to Transform Health Care, where 10 inspiring speakers, comprising a blend of health care providers and the public, shared their hopes for the health care system using the Pecha Kucha-powered 20 x 20 format (20 slides, 20 seconds each).
