UConn Health’s Dr. Anthony Alessi, a renowned neurologist whose Saturday morning radio show “Healthy Rounds” was a fixture on WTIC NewsTalk 1080 for 16 years, introduces his program as a UConn Health podcast.

The premiere episode features an interview with Dr. Andrew Agwunobi, UConn Health CEO and executive VP for health affairs, as UConn Health prepares to lead a multi-hospital network through public-private partnerships intended to maintain and expand access to care throughout Connecticut. Agwunobi shares his vision for the network, starting with the partnership with Waterbury HEALTH, as well has his insights on the state of health care delivery and what he’s learned from his experience in the private sector.

[The state has] looked to us and said, ‘You guys are doing such a great job, help us, the state, to do this’… It’s a huge responsibility and one we’re proud of. — Dr. Andrew Agwunobi
