Gladys McGarey: The Well-Lived Life Gladys McGarey is 102 years old and a still-practicing doctor. Recognized as a pioneer of the allopathic and holistic medical movements, she is also a founding diplomat of the American Board of Holistic Medicine. She is the cofounder and past president of the American Holistic Medical Association, as well as the cofounder of the Academy of Parapsychology and Medicine and the founder of The International Academy of Clinical Hypnosis. Gladys lives and works in Scottsdale, Arizona, where for many years she shared a medical practice with her daughter. She currently has a medical consulting practice, maintains a healthy diet, and enjoys a good piece of cake every now and then. She has spoken at TEDx and is the author of The Well-Lived Life: A 102-Year Old Doctor's Six Secrets to Health and Happiness at Any Age*. Our efforts in leadership development, personal growth, or getting better at anything, are all about starting. In this conversation, Gladys and I discuss the critical nature of movement in our lives and work. We also explore how to identify where to start and why it's more about beginning that finishing. Key Points All life needs to move. If we're not moving, we can't function. Stuckness is an illusion. If we know what to look for, movement is all around us and within us. A flashlight in the dark can only see a few steps ahead — but that's enough to move in the right direction and begin seeing more. Look for the trickle around the dam. Noticing where movement already is will often be the starting point to go further. Doctors don't heal patients, only patients can heal themselves. Pay attention to beginning instead of finishing.

Eye physician and surgeon, Chris A. Knobbe, MD, had been in practice nearly 20 years when, in 2013, he asked himself the question, “Could macular degeneration be a ‘Westernized disease'? Could AMD be a disease that is the result of a Westernized diet?” That question would forever change his life. Dr. Knobbe began his practice of ophthalmology in 1994, after completing his residency training at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center, in Denver, Colorado, USA. He was certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology in 1997 and has remained board-certified since then.

No gimmicks. No fad diets. No strange contraptions. No heavily marketed "super snacks." No chronic sick care. Paul Krauss MA LPC discusses the medical facts of dementia and Alzheimer's disease with authorities Dr. Emily Clionsky and Dr. Mitchell Clionsky. If you are interested in the practical prevention that you can begin implementing now--or are curious for a family member, then this is the podcast for you. Two experts in brain preservation, Emily Clionsky MD and Mitchell Clionsky PhD will show you how to stack the dementia deck in your favor by reading and following the prescription in Dementia Prevention: Using Your Head to Save Your Brain, (John Hopkins University Press; April 4, 2023). The Clionskys are a physician (MD) and a neuropsychologist (PhD) who have published research in dementia, developed an accurate dementia test for doctors, and personally treated more than 10,000 patients who have dementia or its preceding condition, Mild Cognitive Impairment. Moreover, they understand the disease personally, having cared for loved ones with dementia in their immediate families. Their goal in this book is to expand their reach, to move from what they now do in their office consultation rooms to the much larger audience of readers who want to use medical science and behavior change to maintain their brains.  In Dementia Prevention, they take you on a guided tour through dementia types, teach you the history of these neurological diseases, and discuss the more than 15 different factors known to affect your risk. They build a visual model of dementia risk, chapter by chapter, pulling all of this information together in a clear picture of how these various pieces interact.

This week we're replaying a classic episode where your hosts Steve and Yvonne interview Bibi Fell of Fell Law, PC (https://www.fellfirm.com/).   Remember to rate and review GTP in iTunes: Click Here to Rate and Review   View/Download Trial Documents   Case Details: California trial lawyer Bibi Fell, a founding partner at Fell Law, PC and a partner at Athea Trial Lawyers, shares how she successfully represented a breast cancer patient who fell victim to the beliefs and unconventional cancer treatment of a New York Times bestselling author masquerading as a licensed doctor. Plaintiff Dawn Kali was diagnosed with treatable Stage 1 breast cancer and rejected traditional treatment options in favor of the "Father of the Alkaline Diet" Robert O. Young's "pH Miracle" approach, which focused on making the body less acidic and more alkaline. This process involved costly extended stays at Young's Rancho del Sol in Valley Center, California and expensive intravenous treatments that consisted of little more than baking soda. Unable to pay, Dawn worked for Young in exchange for treatments that were ultimately ineffective. After much time had passed, Dawn went to an oncologist and was diagnosed with terminal Stage 4 cancer that had spread to her spine and femur. At trial, Bibi Fell demonstrated that Young's "pH Miracle" treatment was neither scientifically nor medically sound. In spite of the defense's claims that Dawn was aware that Young was not a licensed medical doctor and that she was not prevented from seeking conventional medical treatment, a San Diego jury found in favor of Dawn for her claims against Young of intentional misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation, false promise and negligence. In October 2018, the jury awarded Dawn a $105,356,000 verdict, including $15 million in punitive damages. Guest Bio: Bibi Fell Bibi represents plaintiffs who suffered catastrophic injuries or the death of a loved one. She is the Founding Partner of Fell Law, PC, in San Diego, California and is a Partner at Athea Trial Lawyers, a nationwide plaintiff's firm comprised of six prominent female trial lawyers.

In this episode, we talk a bit about the recent advances in large language models, also known as GPT/ChatGPT.  We have two wonderful guests: Christoph U. Lehmann, M.D., is a Professor of Pediatrics, Population and Data Sciences, and Bioinformatics at UT Southwestern, where he directs the Clinical Informatics Center. In addition, Chris was the first chair of the Examination Committee of the American Board of Preventive Medicine, Subcommittee for Clinical Informatics. Dr. Lehmann's research focuses on improving clinical information technology and clinical decision support. Yaa Kumah-Crystal Crystal MD, MPH, MS is an Assistant Professor of Biomedical Informatics and Pediatric Endocrinology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Yaa's research focuses on studying communication and documentation in healthcare and developing strategies to improve workflow and patient care delivery. Yaa works in the Innovations Portfolio at Vanderbilt HealthIT on the development of Voice Assistant Technologies to improve the usability of the EHR through natural language communication. Chris and Yaa bring very complementary perspectives to the topic of our future. Yaa's research focuses on how we can innovate to improve the use of technology in medicine. Chris is also internationally known as the Editor in Chief of Applied Clinical Informatics, as well as one of the leaders in our clinical informatics board certification work.  He is intimately familiar with the potential uses of this technology beyond clinical care, but, as an actively practicing neonatologist, more than holds his own when it comes to how medicine can benefit from--or be harmed by--new technologies such as AI.  We leave it to you to decide both which direction we're heading, and how we can put up the guardrails to keep us on the preferred track. And, I suspect this won't be our last discussion about AI in Medicine!----more---- By the way, in case you want to learn more about topics we brought up in this episode: Belmont principles include autonomy Beneficence:  AI is designed explicitly to be helpful to people, who use it or on whom it is used, and to reflect the ideals of compassionate, kind, and considerate human behavior Autonomy:  Context AI: operates without human oversight.  Context Ethics: “protecting the autonomy of all people and treating them with courtesy and respect and facilitating informed consent” Nonmaleficence:  “Do No Harm”.  Every reasonable effort shall be made to avoid, prevent, and minimize harm or damage to any stakeholder.

In this episode we are learning about the formation of the American Board of Genetic Counseling (aka ABGC) with Ann Walker and Ed Kloza. Ann Platt Walker, MA, LCGC has held many leadership positions including the Founding President and Director of the American Board of Genetic Counseling (ABGC), President of the National Society of Genetic Counselors (NSGC) in 1982, and has been on the Board of Directors for the American Board of Medical Genetics (ABMG), American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG), and the American Council for Genetic Counseling (ACGC). During Ann's career she held roles at the University of California, Irvine Medical Center including as the program director for the Master's of Science in Genetic Counseling Program for over two decades. She has authored over 20 peer reviewed publications, 10 book chapters, and countless abstracts and presentations. Ann has been awarded many times through her impressive career including the Natalie Weissberger Paul National Achievement and Leadership Awards from NSGC.Ed Kloza, MS, LCGC was the first genetic counselor in Maine. He helped establish clinical genetics in Southern Maine and pioneered prenatal serum screening at the Foundation for Blood Research in Scarborough, and was a member of the team from Women & Infants Hospital of Rhode Island which published the first international clinical validation study of cell-free DNA screening. He was key in the development of the genetic counseling profession including as a past president of NSGC (the first, and one of only two males elected to that position), and in helping create the American Board of Genetic Counseling (which we are focusing on today). In 2000, Ed was honored with the Natalie Weissberger Paul National Achievement Award. Currently Ed is the genetics education consultant for the New England Regional Genetics Network (NERGN) and is an adjunct Professor at Bay Path University with their graduate Genetic Counseling program.On This Episode We Discuss:The ABGC versus the NSGC and which came first!The early days of board examsWhat prompted the creation of the ABGC in 1992Challenges in forming ABGCThe original goals of ABGC as an organizationThe first ABGC president and other key playersWhen ABGC began to accredit genetic counseling programsEstablishing practice-based competenciesIf you want to learn more about the history of the GC field, check out Episode 136 with Linda Robinson .

Men and women require estradiol for optimal health. In this podcast, Dr. Carrozzella and I delve into the importance of estradiol in both men and women. The importance of estradiol in women is crucial for reproductive, brain, and bone health, as well as cardio protection. Decline in estradiol during menopause can lead to various diseases of aging. There is controversy around replacing estradiol in women, but the literature supports its necessity. Similarly, men also require estradiol for optimal health, but there are still physicians blocking estradiol. We cover the misconceptions surrounding blocking estrogen and explore the cardio-protective effects of estradiol. Lastly, we address the treatments for sexual health and the role of Trimix, Emsella, PDE-5’s, and botox in sexual function. Tune in for an informative discussion on sexual function and hormone management. Dr. John Carrozzella, an Honors Graduate from Yale in 1978, went on to earn his MD from the University of Cincinnati (UC) in 1982 and was awarded the honor of Alpha Omega Alpha. He completed his Orthopaedic Surgical Residency and Hand Surgery Fellowship in 1988 and practiced as an Orthopaedic Surgeon for 25 years before shifting his focus to nontraditional medical specialties such as Hormone Replacement, Sexual Health and Dysfunction, and Age Management. He has been a member of several medical associations, including the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery, American Society for Surgery of the Hand, and the American College of Surgeons. In 2014, he became an Advanced Fellow of the American Academy of Anti-Aging and Aesthetic Medicine, a member of the International Society for Sexual Medicine, and the International Society for the Study of Women’s Sexual Health.

So, let me just cut to the chase here with very little preamble, and all of this is a setup to the interview that follows, although it is not really what the interview that follows is all about. A mentor of mine used to say, you can't legislate the heart. Let me also suggest you can't give someone in finance financial incentives and then expect them to not prioritize financial incentives. It stands to reason that if the healthcare industry is found to be quite attractive to those who are money focused, then do I need to say this? The money focused amongst us will, of course, do the whatever to the extent that they can make money. They aren't gonna be throwing their backs into quality or cost effectiveness or taking care of patients. They are throwing their backs into making money. Is anyone shocked? Now, don't get me wrong; I'm not a Pollyanna. And in this country, in order to run a healthcare business, you have to make money; otherwise, you'll go out of business. So, do well by doing good and all of that. But how much money is too much money? This is an important line to figure out because that's where you are doing well but you've stopped doing good—you've tipped into financial toxicity. You are taking more than the good you are doing, and the net positive becomes a net negative. But complicating fact of current life, it's becoming increasingly obvious that in order to stand up a practice that can take advantage of value-based care payments—payments where primary care docs mainly at this time can get paid more and likely more fairly to care for patients well—you need a lot of infrastructure. You need data, you need tech, you need a team. Translation: You need money, maybe a lot of money, to invest in all of this. And let me ask you this: Who has a lot of money in this country? Here's the point of everything I just said: These are the external realities that hit anyone trying to do right by patients from every direction. But on the other hand (or maybe different fingers on the same hand), as Amy Scanlan, MD, says in this healthcare podcast, physicians are the backbone of this system. Dr. Scanlan talks in the interview today about the opportunity, and maybe the responsibility, that physicians have here for patients; but also the Eric Reinhart article comes up again about rampant physician moral injury (unpaywalled link with my compliments). Right now might be a great time to read something from Denver Sallee, MD. He wrote to me the other day. He wrote, “Like many physicians, I did not have much understanding of the business side of medicine, as I mistakenly thought as long as I helped take great care of patients that I was doing my job. More recently, it became apparent to me that by ceding the management of medicine to nonclinical administrators and to companies interested primarily in value extraction for the benefit of shareholders that I needed more education in order to truly help patients.” Today as aforementioned, I'm talking with Amy Scanlan, MD, who is chief medical officer of the clinically integrated network (CIN) that is the new joint venture between Intermountain Health and UCHealth in Colorado. We talk about what it's like to be in the kind of messy middle of transformation to integrated care in a clinically integrated network, trying to figure out how to help physician practices and the CIN itself navigate the external environment in a way that empowers different kinds of practices at different points in their transformation journey that empowers physicians to be in charge, and considering clinical and financial outcomes (ie, the business of healthcare). Dr. Scanlan brings up four main factors to consider when plotting strategy from here to there: 1. Give practices the tools that they need to succeed—not what you think they need but what you've discerned they actually need because you've listened to them. 2. Many times, these tools will consist of some combination of data, tech, and also offering the team behind the scenes to help doctors and other clinicians help patients through what Dr. Scanlan calls the “in-between spaces”—the times between appointments. 3. Medical culture really has to change, and in two ways: doctors learning how to be part of and/or leading functional teams and building functional teams. Because there are teams, and then there are teams. Well-functioning teams can produce great results. Nonfunctioning teams, however, are, as Dr. Scanlan puts it, just a series of handoffs. And don't forget, handoffs are the most dangerous times for patients. The DNA of team-based care—real team-based care—for better or worse, are the relationships between team members, between physicians who work together, between doctors and patients, between clinicians and clinicians. So, fostering relationships, creating opportunities to collaborate and talk, is not to be underestimated. How do you re-create the doctors' lounge in 2023? 4. Getting out from underneath the long shadow of fee-for-service incentives, specifically the paradigm that only patients who get mindshare are the ones in the exam room. Value-based care, integrated care is as much contemplating the patients who don't show up as the ones who do. This is a really big mind shift, much bigger than many realize.   You can learn more by reaching out to Dr. Scanlan on LinkedIn.     Amy Scanlan, MD, serves as chief medical officer for the new joint venture CIN between UCHealth and Intermountain Health—a physician-led, clinically integrated network of more than 700 primary care providers from UCHealth, Intermountain Health Peaks Region, the University of Colorado School of Medicine, and multiple independent practices along the Front Range. Dr. Scanlan trained as a family practice physician and has continued to practice for the past 25 years. She has worked as a physician-owner in a small independent practice and has held multiple leadership positions as part of large health systems. She has served on numerous health system committees spanning quality, innovation, recruitment, and credentialing. She is very familiar with value-based care models, having been part of an accountable care organization (ACO) practice for the past 15 years, as well as participating on an ACO Practice Performance and Standards Committee and serving on a local ACO board. She received a bachelor's degree with honors from Wesleyan University in Connecticut. She obtained her medical degree from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, where she received the Kiwala Award for Research in Family Medicine. Her residency was completed at St. Anthony's Family Medicine Residency program in Denver. She is currently board certified by the American Board of Family Medicine and NCQA (National Committee for Quality Assurance) certified in diabetes.   06:33 How is Dr. Scanlan thinking about the transformation process and the shift to value? 09:14 “It is really trying to think about, how do we help practices get there?” 11:46 “The hard part is the in-between spaces.” 14:10 “Team-based care done badly is really just a series of handoffs.” 15:50 “We have to get to that point where the culture of collaboration is more pervasive.” 19:57 “How do we as healthcare providers step in and solve this problem?” 20:04 Why do providers have a responsibility to step in and try to fix the healthcare system? 20:20 Article (unpaywalled) by Eric Reinhart, MD, PhD. 21:50 Why do physicians need to be accountable for the cost of care as well as outcomes? 23:37 Why does physician burnout give Dr. Scanlan hope? 24:25 What is the solution to changing fee-for-service incentives? 25:42 What are some of the challenges facing changing incentives? 27:14 Why is data so important? 28:53 EP393 with David Muhlestein, PhD, JD. 30:11 “It's important to understand that we are in the middle of this change.” 31:16 Dr. Scanlan's advice for those trying to stand up a CIN.   You can learn more by reaching out to Dr. Scanlan on LinkedIn.   Amy Scanlan, MD, of @uchealth discusses real-world #clinicalintegration on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast   Recent past interviews: Click a guest's name for their latest RHV episode!

Episode #3.1: The Heart of Law With Mike Papantonio  Today, on The Heart of Law we are honored to welcome back Mike Papantonio, or "Pap" as he is affectionately known, a senior partner at the Levin Papantonio Rafferty law firm. With a series of multimillion-dollar verdicts under his belt, he is a trailblazer in the field of mass tort litigation, having handled thousands of cases across the nation. Pap's unwavering commitment to seeking justice for victims of corporate greed has helped establish Levin Papantonio Rafferty as one of the preeminent plaintiff law firms in the country. As Mirena Umizaj and her esteemed colleague exchange pleasantries, she extends her heartfelt congratulations on his daughter's decision to embark on a journey in the legal field. They begin discussing advice for aspiring young lawyers, and the topic of the legacy case arises. Undoubtedly, it is imperative to leave a lasting impact and make a meaningful contribution to the legal landscape. Pap offers sage advice and commends Mirena on her own exceptional progress, urging others to emulate her trailblazing ways. He generously provides a roadmap for success, encouraging young lawyers to exhibit the courage to take on a monumental case. They should not cower in the face of rejection or the possibility of failure, but instead understand that the law of averages dictates that risks must be taken. To avoid becoming a mere “Joe Schmoe'', one must have the fortitude to blaze new trails, take chances, and leave an imprint on the legal community. Additionally, he proudly unveils his latest merchandise, a series of t-shirts bearing the slogan "America's Lawyer". The rationale behind this branding is to “inspire young lawyers to strive towards becoming the best legal professionals in their respective communities'', with the potential to earn the moniker of "America's Lawyer" in their own right. Pap highlights the incredible feats of lawyers who have taken on insurmountable cases and triumphed against all odds. He discusses his friend Rob Billot's harrowing experience with a PFAS case in Columbus, Ohio, which ultimately resulted in a settlement of nearly a billion dollars. Mike emphasizes that these lawyers did not view these cases as a cakewalk but as an opportunity to make a significant impact. He also recounts his own journey, meeting Mirena, and learning about the necessity of careful planning, tenacity, and a network of experienced professionals to succeed in the legal field. In a captivating exchange, Mirena and Pap delve into the entanglement of Wall Street with the legal industry. Pap boldly forecasts a major lawsuit looming on the horizon and uncovers a series of scams involving case acquisition individuals peddling cases to multiple entities. In mass torts, politics come into play, and Pap emphasizes the importance of having confidence in oneself in the legal field. He compares it to a “matador facing a bull, confident enough to turn his back and get on one knee”. Similarly, a lawyer must have the courage to face challenging situations without fear. He acknowledges that there will always be people who try to interfere with one's work and outdo them, but it is important to remain focused on the task at hand and not be distracted by petty “sophomoric rivalries”. Pap humorously refers to this as "Italian Alzheimer's" - forgetting everything except those who have wronged you.

You're just going to be a Joe Schmoe doing the same thing everyone else does”    ABOUT OUR GUEST:  ●      Senior Partner of Levin Papantonio Rafferty, P.A. ●      Board Certified Civil Trial Lawyer by the Florida Bar and the National Board of Trial Advocacy ●      Host of the YouTube show America's Lawyer with over 900,000 subscribers , and founder and former host of Ring of Fire, a popular radio program. ●      Inducted into the National Trial Lawyers' Hall of Fame (2015) and Former President of The National Trial Lawyers (2012) ●      Author of multiple novels, including four motivational books for lawyers and a series of legal thrillers ●      Member of The International Academy of Trial Lawyers, The International Society of Barristers, The National Trial Lawyers Association, The American Board of Trial Advocates, The American Justice Association, The Southern Trial Lawyers Association, and The Florida Justice Association ●      Recipient of several prestigious awards, including but not limited to, the Compassionate Gladiator Award from the Florida Justice Association (2019), Defender of Justice Award by the American Association for Justice (2015), and the Perry Nichols Award by the Florida Justice Association (2011)
