What Does It Meant To Be A (Family) PhysicianPresented by Thomas L. Schwenk, MD, University of NevadaSTFM Annual Spring Conference 2025 General Session | Monday, May 5, 2025The enduring values of family medicine center on the compassionate, comprehensive care of patients over time. That care has defined family medicine and motivated family physicians for decades. Today, simply providing excellent care for patients may not be enough in the face of an extraordinarily perverse and dysfunctional health care system that often does everything in its power to make caring for patients difficult, stressful and discouraging. The regenerative power of the physician-patient relationship is often compromised and thwarted by a health care system that ranks as the worst in the world among developed countries. The health care system rides on the backs of family and other primary care physicians, and those backs are bending painfully under the system's weight.The solution lies in using the power of the physician-patient relationship as the source of motivation and energy to fight for the very soul of our profession, fight for the core of what it means to be a family physician, fight for operational changes that are designed for quality instead of efficiency, fight for informational and technological solutions that promote continuity, and fight for model operations that show our learners how attractive family medicine can be. This fight will require leadership at all levels of the discipline of family medicine. Through stories and personal anecdotes from his career, the presenter will illustrate the regenerative power of the physician-patient relationship and the power of the family physician's role as an agent for change.Learning ObjectivesAt the end of the session each participant should:Be exposed to the core importance and regenerative power of the physician-patient relationshipHave the opportunity to reflect on their own commitment to the core attributes of the physician-patient relationship as the motivation to fight for operational changes in the health care systemHave the opportunity to consider their role as a leader in preserving and supporting the physician-patient relationshipCopyright © Society of Teachers of Family Medicine, 2025Thomas L.

Data silos are significantly hindering AI innovation, as highlighted by a recent report from Infanti. The survey of over 1,200 IT and cybersecurity professionals revealed that more than half of the respondents experience isolated data within their organizations, leading to inefficiencies and slow security responses. Nearly 30% of IT professionals reported that these data deficiencies obstruct their ability to effectively utilize AI tools. Experts emphasize the necessity for a comprehensive data strategy that includes governance, quality, and performance to foster innovation and avoid stagnation in AI projects.In the medical field, radiologists are experiencing growth rather than extinction due to advancements in AI. The Association of American Medical Colleges predicts a shortage of up to 42,000 radiologists by 2033, yet AI is proving to be an essential tool for these professionals. At institutions like the Mayo Clinic, AI has enabled rapid measurements and early disease detection, leading to a 55% expansion in their radiology department and the development of over 250 AI models to enhance diagnostic capabilities.Public relations professionals are adapting to the rise of AI by recognizing the importance of engaging with journalists to influence AI chatbots. Research indicates that authoritative journalism has a more significant impact on how AI platforms generate responses about companies than social media campaigns. This shift underscores the need for firms to prioritize earned media and thought leadership as part of their brand strategy, especially as AI continues to shape public perception.Lastly, companies like SuperOps and TD Cynics are making strides in AI integration. SuperOps has relaunched its AI-powered platform, Monika, which offers various levels of AI autonomy to enhance IT operations for managed service providers. Meanwhile, TD Cynics has updated its Destination AI program to help partners transition from AI exploration to execution, providing tools and frameworks that align technical skills with specific AI solutions. These developments highlight the growing importance of AI in various sectors and the need for organizations to adapt their strategies accordingly. Four things to know today 00:00 Want AI to Work?

Next year there will be 150,000 fewer doctors nationwide, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges. The estimate is based on three reasons relative to medical care needs - we're getting older and need more medical care; more people have access to health insurance so the demand is higher; and doctors are getting older and retiring. Hampton Roads is not immune to this shortage. We take closer look at the doctor shortage issue and what can turn things around with our guests Dr. Armistead Williams, Dr. Elias Zerhouni, healthcare financial expert Bruce Holbrook, and Another View co-host, cardiologist Dr. Keith Newby.

The law attempts to increase the number of doctors in the state through ways such as expanding medical residency programs in Florida and establishing ways to retain Florida medical students leading into their years of practicing. According to the bill, part of the solution to retaining Florida medical students is removing certain barriers for foreign-trained physicians to practice in Florida. The Association of American Medical Colleges notes that one of the difficulties Florida medical students face when attempting to secure a residency in Florida is competition from overseas medical schools that pay to place their students in Florida clinicals. Additionally, foreign-trained physicians must bear the burden of completing another residency in Florida before they are qualified to practice, despite already having a license elsewhere. With the bill, removing the barriers is meant to benefit Florida medical students and foreign-trained physicians alike. With the residency requirement removed for qualified foreign-trained physicians and the ability to receive licensure through teaching, there may be quite a few individuals who want to use the opportunity to become a licensed physician in Florida. As of May, of this year, the law is expected to benefit over 30,000 Cuban physicians and other foreign-trained healthcare professionals who can qualify under the new requirements. Although the law was only passed early this year, it is possible that it may have a significant impact on the status of our healthcare system for years to come. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/joneshealthlaw/support

From the beginning, it was obvious: that Trish and Mr. Benjamin had a deep connection. Benjamin was part of everything and everywhere she went. He supported her in every way possible. They were inseparable. It comes as no surprise that Benjamin's death just five months ago left her in despair. Trish's heart was broken, and her life was missing the most essential ingredient: Her most trusted friend and companion, Golden Retriever Benjamin. About this week's guest Patricia A. Muehsam, MD, a pioneer in the synthesis of science, holistic health, and contemporary spirituality, has been a thought leader in the alternative medicine movement. She forged new ground that led to the establishment of the Office of Alternative Medicine at the National Institutes of Health in the USA, endeavors that transformed the landscape of healthcare options today. Dr. Trish has distinguished herself as a practitioner, educator, research scientist, and award-winning author. She founded the American Medical Colleges' first initiative in alternative medicine, leading medical schools throughout the United States and the world to add courses in the field. Her original bioelectromagnetic research investigated distant healer phenomena and homeopathy. Dr Trish's award-winning book, Beyond Medicine: A Physician's Revolutionary Prescription for Achieving Absolute Health and Finding Inner Peace, has been hailed as the “only health and healing book you may ever need.” She offers health consultations, mind-body healing sessions, online courses, and communities of support.Website: www.transformationalmedicine.orgResources mentioned in this episodeDr Trish's book: Beyond MedicineSupport the Show.Support the show: Become a supporter of the show!

The healthcare landscape is changing rapidly, with the roles of nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician assistants (PAs) expanding significantly. This shift makes it crucial to understand the differences in training and competencies between these professionals and physicians. A study by the Association of American Medical Colleges highlights a projected shortage of up to 139,000 physicians by 2033, which intensifies the need for clarity in who provides patient care.Why should patients care about who is providing their medical care?This episode of "I Don't Care," hosted by Dr. Kevin Stevenson, addresses this critical question. Kevin is joined by Dr. Purvi Parikh from Physicians for Patient Protection, a grassroots organization advocating for physician-led care. The discussion centers on the importance of transparency in medical credentials and ensuring that patients receive the highest quality of care.Key Points of Discussion:Training Differences: Physicians undergo extensive training, including medical school and residencies, accumulating over 16,000 clinical hours. In contrast, nurse practitioners and physician assistants have significantly fewer clinical hours, often leading to variations in the quality of care.Transparency and Misleading Practices: The proliferation of white coats among different healthcare providers can confuse patients. Dr. Parikh emphasizes the importance of clear credential display and proper introductions to prevent patients from mistaking non-physicians for physicians.Legislative Gaps and Corporate Exploitation: Some states have lax regulations allowing non-physicians to perform high-risk procedures. This has led to dangerous practices and patient harm, highlighting the need for stricter oversight and better legislation.Dr. Purvi Parikh is an allergist and immunologist affiliated with Physicians for Patient Protection. She holds a medical degree and has completed extensive post-graduate training. Dr. Parikh is a dedicated advocate for physician-led care, emphasizing the importance of transparency and patient safety in healthcare practices.

This development underscores the high stakes of the upcoming 2024 election, particularly in the realm of climate policy. While President Biden has implemented numerous regulations aimed at addressing climate change, Trump, who has a history of rolling back such regulations and dismissing climate change as a hoax, presents a starkly different approach. The intersection of Trump's skepticism towards climate science and penchant for corruption poses a significant challenge and opportunity for the Biden campaign. This recent revelation highlights the critical importance of the election in shaping the future direction of environmental policy. Recent polls indicate that a significant portion of voters lack awareness of President Biden's major domestic accomplishments, such as the Inflation Reduction Act, which featured substantial climate investments and green incentives for both businesses and individuals. Furthermore, there is a lack of understanding among voters regarding Biden's Bipartisan Infrastructure Plan, with some mistakenly attributing similar achievements to former President Trump, despite his failure to deliver on infrastructure promises during his tenure. This highlights the urgent need for the Biden campaign to educate the public on how his policies positively impact their communities. In contrast, Trump's apparent willingness to prioritize personal gain by making promises to oil companies further underscores the contrasting approaches of the two leaders on critical issues like climate and infrastructure.

Dr. Amanda Logue, Chief Medical Officer for Ochsner Lafayette General, joined Discover Lafayette to discuss Ochsner's new General Surgery Residency Program. Accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), the surgical residency program received nearly 600 applications for three coveted spots. The 5-year surgery program is expected to grow, training a new class of three residents per academic year, wth the inaugural class beginning July 1, 2024. Ochsner is also pursuing accreditation of Internal Medicine, Emergency Medicine, and Transitional Year Programs. On April 16, 2024, Ochsner Lafayette General Medical Center, the region's only Level 2 Trauma Center, celebrated the launch of its new General Surgery Residency Program, which will begin July 1, 2024. Located inside the new, recently constructed tower at Ochsner Lafayette General Medical Center, the completed Graduate Medical Education space will be 17,115 square feet. Phase 1 includes eight resident sleep rooms, a resident lounge, classrooms, rounding rooms and lactation rooms. Phase 2 will house numerous simulation labs and additional classroom space. Ziad Ashkar, MD, will serve as the Designated Institutional Official (DIO), ensuring the program meets the rigorous accreditation standards set by the ACGME. Dr. Dennis Eschete will serve as the Program Director for General Surgery. About 25 surgeons will be rotating, with the core group of teaching physicians being Dr. Willard Mosier, Ochsner Lafayette General's head of trauma, Dr. Jason Breaux, Dr. Michael Horaist and Dr. Racheed “Joe” Ghanami. The new residency program is both a strategic response to the escalating physician shortage and a model for innovative care solutions leading to increased patient access. In a 2024 report, the Association of American Medical Colleges projected that physician demand will grow faster than supply, leading to a projected total shortage of up to 86,000 physicians by 2036. Moreover, Louisiana is projected to rank third nationally for a shortage of physicians by 2030, according to a Human Resources for Health analysis. Speaking of the physician shortage being experience here and nationwide, Dr. Amanda Logue shared that 140,000 patients came through Ochsner University Clinics in 2023. "It's a huge volume, there's a huge need for more physicians." Ochsner Lafayette General's new surgery residency program doesn't replace its ongoing partnership with LSU School of Medicine's at University Hospital & Cinics; it complements it. Dr. Logue stated, "The reality is there's a critical need for more physicians, which is why we started our own program in addition to the existing one. This program also signifies our deep commitment to advancing medical education and addressing the dire need for surgeons in our healthcare system." Importantly, data shows that most physicians practice within 70 miles of where they trained, so Ochsner hopes that Lafayette will be a compelling place for their residents to start their medical careers. The goal of the program is not only to provide top-tier educational opportunities, such as training at the region's only Level 2 Trauma Center, but also to inspire innovation and compassion among the residents. The residents will learn to navigate the complexities of healthcare delivery with a patient-first approach, having the opportunity to take part in cutting-edge research and be at the forefront of developing new surgical techniques. Ochsner Health is Louisiana's top healthcare educator of physicians. Annually Ochsner and its partners educate thousands of healthcare professionals. It currently offers 33 Acreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education programs, training over 330 residents and fellows each year. Dr. Logue is board certified in both Internal Medicine and Clinical Informatics, having completed her undergraduate training at LSU in microbiology,

(AURN News) - As Skin Cancer Awareness Month begins, health organizations are sending an important reminder: Although less common, people of color are at risk and must stay vigilant about protection and early detection. "Having darker skin lowers the risk of melanoma at the more common sites, like the legs, back and chest, but anyone can develop it on areas like the palms of the hands, soles of the feet and under the nails," the American Cancer Society (ACS) states. "In fact, melanomas found in these areas account for more than half of all melanomas in African American people but fewer than 1 in 10 melanomas in White people." Skin cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer nationwide, according to the ACS. However, Black people are about three times more likely than white people to die within five years of diagnosis, often due to later-stage detection. Part of the problem, experts say, is that dermatologists can have more difficulty identifying concerning lesions on darker skin tones. The Association of American Medical Colleges is pushing for more diverse training images and educational materials to help providers make accurate evaluations. Physicians encourage people of color to perform regular self-exams, especially on areas like hands, feet soles, and nail beds where melanomas more frequently appear in this population. Annual check-ups with a dermatologist are also advised. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Rhythm & News Podcast interview with Dr. Rosell Jenkins, a licensed psychologist based in Houston, Texas, discussing the Association of American Medical Colleges findings of increased suicide rates of Black people between 10-24 by 36% between 2018 and 2021 and the factors that have contributed to this increase. Interview by Chris B. Bennett.

Following the ratification of the 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution, formally abolishing slavery, John Swett Rock, an abolitionist lawyer, achieved a significant milestone by becoming the first African-American to be admitted to the bar of the United States Supreme Court on February 1, 1865. Born free on October 13, 1825, in Salem, New Jersey, Rock was not only a lawyer but also an educator and a dentist. He graduated from the American Medical College in Philadelphia in 1852 and established a dental practice in Boston, where he tended to escaped slaves seeking refuge through the Underground Railroad. His tenure at the U.S. Supreme Court lasted only one year as health issues interrupted his career. At the age of 41, in 1866, Rock died due to tuberculosis. Learn more about your ad choices.

We always cite our sources: Duquesne University opened up their new College of Medicine for students to earn DO degrees. Here's what being a doctor of osteopathic medicine means. The Hospital and Healthsystem Association of Pennsylvania figures that by 2030, the state will be short more by than 1,000 primary care docs. The Association of American Medical Colleges estimates a potential shortage of primary care physicians between 17,800 and 48,000 by 2034.  A study published in December asked about 500 third- and fourth-year med students across 125 schools about the considerations they'd take when thinking about residencies, and 58% said they'd be unlikely to apply for a residency program in a state with abortion restrictions. The NYT explained how abortion restrictions have changed the landscape for people who previously wanted to study reproductive care. Comedian Hannah Gadsby talks about being introduced to “her people” via Mardi Gras in her special “Nanette.” This year's Pittsburgh Pride celebration will be held at Point State Park. Keep your eyes peeled on QBurgh for more Pride events as more gets announced. The Mon Incline is still closed, but you can check out what other funiculars look like around the world, like this one in Verona, Italy.

Pancreatic cancer occurs when a cell in the pancreas is damaged, causing the malignant or cancer cell to form in the tissue of the pancreas.  The pancreas is a gland about 6 inches long and is shaped like thin pear lying on its side.  The pancreas lies between the stomach and the spine.     The risk of developing pancreatic cancer increases with age, with about ⅔ of patients being diagnosed at age 65 or older.  Slightly more men than women are affected.     Cigarette smoking is one of the biggest risk factors. Other risk factors include:  Being overweight Personal history of diabetes and Family history of pancreatic cancer or pancreatitis   Like most cancers, early detection is critical. Survival rates are impacted by tumor size and whether the cancer has spread to other organs.   In this episode we are joined by Leslie Waldman, who has a personal diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, which she has lived with for 10 years. Leslie Waldman is director of Consumer and Physician Engagement at Johns Hopkins Medicine. During the last four decades, he has served Johns Hopkins in many capacities including director of strategic marketing, director of competitive strategy for Johns Hopkins Medicine and as director of public affairs for the Johns Hopkins University School of Public Health.   Throughout her career, she has blended strategy planning and marketing, public affairs and consumer health education to affect change and motivate consumers towards healthier living. Resulting programs have included community-based screening programs for Tay-Sachs disease and lead poisoning; the award-winning health portfolio, A Woman's Journey; and strategic marketing programs for women's health, many clinical programs and recruitment of volunteers for clinical trials The Association of American Medical Colleges has honored her work for the digital program, COVID -19: One Year Later; re branding Johns Hopkin Medicine, marketing the Johns Hopkins Breast Center, advertising during open enrollment, the publication of Estrogen Replacement Therapy: The Johns Hopkins Guide to Making an Informed Decision; and marketing for the Johns Hopkins Asthma and Allergy Center.   Ms. Waldman has a masters in science in health education from the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health and a BA from the Newhouse School of Communications and the College of Liberal Arts at Syracuse university.   Check out “A Woman's Journey: Healthy Insights That Matter” on Apple Podcast here.

AND WE'RE BACK! I am beyond excited to announce that the third season of the Friends of Franz Podcast is finally dropping every Friday morning at 5 AM EST starting this week on December 1st, on all streaming platforms worldwide!I am beyond grateful for the support you have granted this passion project I have produced and hosted for the past three years: streamed in 100+ countries, on 6 continents, and ranked Top 30% Most Followed and Top 5% Most Globally Shared on Spotify Podcasts. Thank you for joining me in fulfilling my visions for the series: to educate the public through expert guests by challenging scientific misinformation, humanize healthcare workers by sharing their life stories, and bridge chasms within medicine by highlighting the underrepresented.According to the Association of American Medical Colleges, only 17.1% of physicians in the United States are Asian, 5.8% Hispanic, 5% Black, 0.3% American Indian, and 0.1% Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander. The AAMC also reports that only 36% of physicians are women. The UNESCO Institute for Statistics says that women make up less than 30% of the world's researchers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Undeniably, the fields of medicine and science remain male- and white-dominated.It became my tangible mission to invite expert guests from minority groups within medicine to contribute to the much-needed representation the public and patients need to see. Over the past two podcast seasons, my podcast guests have been over 70% female and over 70% of Asian heritage, as an ode to my Asian identity. The third season will echo this endeavor across 31 guests over 24 episodes, with 87% being women and 60% of Asian heritage. In this batch, we also meet experts from the Black, Hispanic, and LGBTQIA+ communities. I vow to introduce more members of underrepresented communities throughout the coming seasons.This season excites me even more because I have the honor of partnering with and sharing the stories of twelve Asian-founded brands that I personally love and adore. I cannot wait for you to hear more about their amazing products!I hope you join me in this adventure!

The new Covid booster is out. With these booster shots becoming like the flu vaccines, Scott brings on Dr. Eneida Roldan from the Association of American Medical Colleges to discuss if these vaccines are safe and who should get them.

Why docs don't like the word “provider,” and the surprise dealt to the AAMC by OB residency programs a Delaware-based health system, is taking a stand against the use of the term “provider” to describe physicians. The AMA agrees, saying they oppose the term “provider” as inadequate and urging MDs to insist on being identified as "physicians." Co-hosts Nicole (Pathology Extern), Riley (MD/PhD student), and Jeff (M2) discuss why "provider" might not capture what doctors do. In the mid 90s, OB/Gyn residencies helped to pilot the Association of American Medical Colleges' Electronic Residency Application Service, or ERAS. This year, to the “surprise and dismay” of the AAMC, the OB residencies are jumping ship this year and starting their own system. Despite the oft-repeated trivia, urine isn't sterile. I know! mind blown.

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – America is a very litigious society. This is born out by looking at the numbers. According to the American Bar Association, there are more than 1.3 million lawyers in the United States, while the Association of American Medical Colleges states approximately 940,000 total active physicians. While that number may not be shocking, you may be surprised...

The Association of American Medical Colleges projects a shortage of as many as 48,000 primary care physicians by 2034. Yet there are not enough residency positions for the number of medical school graduates. Missouri became the first state to address this problem by launching a new licensure category: assistant physician (AP). APs are essentially apprentice physicians. The reform lets graduates without a residency position provide primary care in clinics while enhancing their knowledge and skills. Six other states have passed similar laws: Arkansas, Kansas, Utah, Arizona, Louisiana, and Idaho.Please join Kevin D. Dayaratna, PhD, a senior research fellow at the Heritage Foundation's Center for Data Analysis; Keith J. Frederick, DO, a former Missouri legislator who spearheaded the country's first AP law; and Lyman Wostrel, MD, a primary care physician practicing under Missouri's AP law, to discuss this issue. Cato Institute senior fellow Jeffrey A. Singer, MD, will moderate the discussion. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Innovative, Compassionate, Future-Focused. Those three words characterize Rina Shah and what she wants for her patients, for the care Walgreens delivers, and for the industry at large. In this episode, we talk with Shah, who is Walgreens Group Vice President of Pharmacy of the Future and Segment Strategy, about just how she envisions the FUTURE of PHARMACY. The topic couldn't be more of the moment: the Association of American Medical Colleges estimates that by 2034, the U.S. will face a shortage of up to 124,000 physicians. Pharmacists in particular are well-positioned to fill gaps in care—if they can get the tools, information and support they need. We'll talk with Shah about how to do so and how Walgreens—under her leadership—is also fighting to address health equity issues in the communities they serve.

THE THESIS: God saved Gianna Jessen from the abortionist who tried to kill her to speak to us about more than “just” abortion. She is a model of facing demons by drawing strength from Christ.  THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  Psalm 139:14 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;     your works are wonderful,     I know that full well. What Is the Meaning of the Body of Christ? Born for This: How to Find the Work You Were Meant to Do THE NEWS & COMMENT:   Hire Gianna to speak! GiannaJessen.com  [VIDEO] - The abortionist failed to kill her, but given what was done to her body during the attempted killing, it's a miracle that Gianna can sing:   My unborn son may not live long, but he still deserves protection from those looking to end his life To the medical staff, our son was already dead, and our choice not to abort him was just an unnecessary headache and expense for everyone involved. The so-called Association of American “Medical” Colleges has released curricula--read: indoctrination struggle sessions--that will force young people to pretend to agree with the dogma Critical Race Theory to work in the field.  Tavistock gender clinic forced to shut over safety fears; Centre accused of rushing vulnerable children into treatmentSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
