On Call by Paging America: We Come Face to Face with the Heidi Overton

Dr. Kristin Lyerly is fresh off a physician lobby day in Washington, DC and is here to tell host Miles Baker all about it.

Doctors in white coats with the Committee to Protect Health Care met with Senate HELP Committee offices to oppose the nomination of Dr. Heidi Overton to lead the FDA.

We break down why physicians say Overton is the wrong choice, what happened when the group crossed paths with the nominee herself, and why her nomination won't move before the election.
