On this episode, we were so lucky to be joined by Dr. Grace Farris, who is a hospitalist and the author of a hilarious, poignant, profound graphic memoir of her career in medicine called See One, Do One, Teach One: The Art of Becoming a Doctor. In our conversation with Grace, we explore how she found her way into comic-drawing, her advice for people who want to explore storytelling about medicine through comics, and some of the backstory behind the book!
