Episode 65: Placement Spotlight Series - Jason Kmet

Hello everyone! Welcome to our Placement Spotlight Series. In these episodes we’ll be interviewing preceptors and students at unique placements. Whether it be a leadership rotation, a specialized clinical experience, or anything in between, be sure to listen in as we dive deep into what these placements offer and how you can best prepare yourself as students for success.

For our first episode, we had the pleasure of interviewing Jason Kmet. Jason is the owner and preceptor at Polaris Travel Clinic, of which he opened in 2013. Graduating from the University of Saskatchewan in 1994, Jason went on to receive his injection certification in 2008 and his ISTM Certificate in Travel Health in 2009. In his free time, Jason also hosts a podcast called the “Polaris Travel Health Podcast”, which is available via the usual streaming platforms and at www.buzzsprout.com.  

This was an amazing first episode to kick things off with this new series, and we hope you guys enjoyed listening to it as well.
