Monday, July 23. 2012 on the Doctor Ira Breite Show on SiriusXM 81: Doctor Radio!

We have a great show planned for tomorrow.  Dr. Mark Pochapin, the Director of Gastroenterology here at NYU, will be coming on my show for a full hour of Digestive disease chat.  Hear about the latest research, and have your questions on digestive disease answered.

Call us with your questions on digestive disease at 1-877-NYU-DOCS!

In honor of my upcoming trip to Iceland, Dr. Kári Stefánsson, M.D., Dr. Med. will be coming on the air at the top of our second hour.  Dr.  Stefánsson is the founder of deCODE Genetics, which is headquartered in Reykjavik, Iceland.  He and his company have discovered a variant in the amyloid precursor protein that confers protection against both Alzheimer's disease and cognitive decline in the elderly.  Find out about how this protein works, how the research was done, and whether it can lead to advances to help you and your loved ones as we all age!

We will end the show, as always, with Ask Doctor Ira, where you can ask me any question on any medical topic at all and I will be glad to answer it.  Anything that you forgot to ask your doctor, ask me!  Give us a call at 1-877-NYU-DOCS!
