Tess Wiskel, MD, a Climate and Human Health fellow with the Harvard Center for Climate, Health and Global Environment , the Harvard FXB Center for Health and Human Rights, and a board-certified emergency physician with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, is the guest on Medical Matters Weekly on Wednesday, July 27.

Tess is an emergency physician and a graduate of the Brown University Emergency Medicine Residency Program and the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine.
