“When you truly grasp the impact of your words, actions, and behavior, that awareness fundamentally transforms your approach to everything.”– Dr. Jonathan Baktari, Healthcare CEO, Entrepreneur, Speaker In this episode of the Pragmatic Product Chats series, host Rebecca Kalogeris engages in an insightful discussion with Dr. Jonathan Baktari, a seasoned physician, entrepreneur, and leader with over 20 years of experience. Dr. Baktari owns and operates several businesses, including multiple health clinics and a software service used in over 20,000 locations. As a business leader, he relies on technology, data, and his trusted team to reach more people than ever before. He shares his extensive knowledge and unique perspective on the intersection of leadership, technology, and employee development. Join us for an engaging conversation that blends healthcare, technology, and leadership, offering practical advice for product managers, marketers, and leaders looking to elevate their teams and organizations. Key Takeaways: 1. The Leadership Dilemma: Dr. Baktari delves into the Peter Principle, which suggests that individuals are promoted based on their current role competence rather than their potential in higher roles. This often leads to leaders who excelled in previous positions but struggle with leadership duties. Great CEOs can make the critical distinction between someone who is proficient at a job and those that would make an effective leader. 2. Micro Mentoring: Dr. Baktari introduces the concept of "micro mentoring" as a superior alternative to micromanaging. By instilling the organization's philosophy and goals in employees, leaders can empower their teams to make independent decisions that align with the company's vision. This approach fosters a sense of autonomy and encourages proactive problem-solving. 3. Invest in Company Culture: The importance of investing in employee growth and fostering a supportive culture is often underestimated. Dr.Baktari emphasizes creating an environment that encourages continuous improvement and development. By prioritizing employee development, companies can build a robust and motivated workforce dedicated to achieving long-term success.

Dr. Baktari is a medical doctor and entrepreneur who is revolutionizing the healthcare industry. He is the founder of e7 Health and eNational Testing, two companies that are dedicated to removing barriers for people to access the healthcare they need.   His inspiration came from companies like Amazon - he noticed that people could get the products they needed in just a few clicks, and he wanted to replicate that for healthcare. He and his team have worked hard to develop software and technology to make healthcare more accessible and remove barriers to care. On eNational Testing, people can order tests in just three clicks, and they can get access to thousands of locations across the US. Tests available include cardiovascular, immense health, women's health, drug testing, employee testing, wellness, allergy, STD, and more.   Dr. Baktari is focused on helping people take control of their health. He says that the three most important indicators of health are BMI, aerobic shape, and percent body fat. He suggests that people should get their annual physical, blood work, colonoscopies, pelvic exams, and mammograms depending on their age. Additionally, he emphasizes the importance of taking care of stress, diet, and exercise to maintain good health. Health care in North America Baktari states that health care has become increasingly consolidated, with equity firms buying up hospitals and medical practices. This has led to a decrease in quality, as well as the introduction of bureaucratic regulations that can make it difficult for people to access care.  Baktari states that there is a problem with the current healthcare system due to the fact that it is a transaction between three parties - the patient, the insurance company, and the medical director. The doctors are now employees, rather than being in private practice, and that has resulted in a decrease in quality.  He believes that it is important for people to take personal responsibility for their health care and to look for ways to get testing done while waiting to see a doctor. People need to take personal responsibility for their health care and become part of the solution. How to improve health care  Baktari suggests that health care can be improved by making it more accessible, affordable, and efficient. He believes that reducing bureaucratic regulations and consolidations, as well as creating more virtual options, can help make health care more accessible and affordable. He also suggests that streamlining processes and providing more incentives to those who put in the effort to take care of their health can help make health care more efficient.

Dr. Jonathan Baktari is a healthcare CEO, vaccine and COVID-19 expert, and physician with specialties in internal, pulmonary, and critical care medicine. When asked what responsible leadership means to him, Dr. Baktari explains that it is about more than just growing and moving the ball forward economically for an organization, but also taking care of everyone in the organization. He believes that responsible leadership means waking up in the morning and trying to move the ball forward for everyone in the organization. He also emphasizes the importance of preventative medicine, vaccinations, and testing for viruses. With his expertise, Dr. Baktari strives to bring the best advice to help people succeed in responsible leadership. The conversation explores the relatively new art form of health entrepreneurship, which is becoming increasingly popular in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. It is difficult for medical professionals to transition into the field of entrepreneurship due to the time and energy they devote to their careers. However, some have been able to make the transition by focusing on their career while also dedicating time to their entrepreneurial endeavors. The conversation also mentions that many entrepreneurs have a noble purpose behind their work, which is likely true for those in the medical profession as well. Those in the medical profession may be motivated by a desire to help others, cure diseases, or find new treatments for illnesses. The conversation is about how health care professionals may feel conflicted about turning their noble purpose into a business and making money. It is suggested that helping people through clinical medicine is a great way to make a huge difference in people's lives, but it is limited to helping one person at a time. It is suggested that there is also value in finding ways to help people on a larger scale. The speaker talks about how his transition into entrepreneurship was gradual and based on a number of experiences and interactions over time. He encourages people to explore different paths and experiences to find what they have an affinity to. They discuss how one can be ready to take advantage of opportunities when they present themselves. The speakers share how their career has been steered by various opportunities that have opened up to them over time. They explain that it was not a one minute epiphany, but by taking advantage of opportunities that opened up, they were able to gain different skillsets. They also advise that one should always be ready for when an opportunity presents itself, as you never know which one could change your life. Finally, they remind listeners to always keep their antenna up, as you never know what conversations or opportunities could arise.

Episode Highlights: Dr. Jonathan's story from being a medical student to e7 Health's CEO Why Dr. Baktari chose to focus on preventive medicine and adult vaccination How e7 Health was a COVID company before COVID hit The importance of a strong digital presence for healthcare companies   About Our Guest:  When Jonathan Baktari, M.D., was arguably at the peak of his medical career as a triple board-certified physician, he saw an opportunity to try something new. Taking everything he'd learned as a doctor, medical director, and educator, he launched two businesses—a vaccine clinic and a drug-testing enterprise—that are driven by technology and designed for fast, customer-centric service. Now, as those businesses grow, he's continuing to write his second career chapter as a health care CEO. Dr. Baktari's company e7 Health was named the best technology company in the healthcare space in 2019. e7 Health could best be described as “the Uber of preventive medicine” in that it is a systems company that has invested heavily in developing their own electronic cloud-based software to leverage technology for the benefit of their operation, patients, and clients. In addition to vaccines, antibody testing, and many other medical services essential to employers around the country, e7 is now providing at home COVID-19 tests for individuals and companies all over the US. Dr. Baktari has always believed that helping others was the ultimate achievement in life.  Links Supporting This Episode: e7 Health website: https://www.e7health.com/ (CLICK HERE) Dr. Jonathan Baktari LinkedIn page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-baktarimd/ (CLICK HERE) e7 Twitter page: https://twitter.com/e7_Health (CLICK HERE) Clubhouse handle: @mikebiselli Mike Biselli LinkedIn page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikebiselli (CLICK HERE) Mike Biselli Twitter page: https://twitter.com/mikebiselli (CLICK HERE) Visit our website: https://www.passionatepioneers.com/ (CLICK HERE) Subscribe to newsletter: https://forms.gle/PLdcj7ujAGEtunsj6 (CLICK HERE) Guest nomination form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScqk_H_a79gCRsBLynkGp7JbdtFRWynTvPVV9ntOdEpExjQIQ/viewform (CLICK HERE)

As with many cycles of innovation, creating the future often starts with considering the past. This episode takes a deeper look into some of the early-adopters of technologies that are helping to define expectations of the future. Other topics range from how healthcare can be more like Amazon to how the book, Tribal Leadership, helped to create a winning culture to why Uber-like disruptions are important in pushing the boundaries of the status-quo.

A do-not-resuscitate, or DNR, order is used to indicate when a patient chooses to forgo resuscitation, however recent analysis shows that multiple studies have connected the presence of DNR orders to elevated death rates, poorer medical care, and negative health outcomes. Dr. Jonathan Baktari joins the podcast to discuss the findings from this analysis, how it can impact individuals with Alzheimer's disease and dementia, and how these concerns can be addressed.

Jonathan Baktari MD is here today to discuss Post Covid New Normal. He talks about the vaccines and how it will be a seasonal vaccine moving forward. The vaccines will be especially important, especially with people with risk factors and the elderly. We will need to learn to live with Covid, and it will be part of viruses that people will get. He also mentions how Covid was an accelerator for many things, including: remote working, zoom calls and more online shopping, all things, which he believes, would have happened eventually. However, with these changes, you do lose the collaboration and the company culture. He believes we need to make more changes to organizations so that they are more energy efficient with better ventilation. The importance of preventative health was discussed, such as eating more plant based foods, moving the body more and finding better stress reactions.    Jonathan Baktari MD brings over 20 years of clinical, administrative and entrepreneurial experience.

Favorite quotes of the episode:  “If you are worried about getting mRNA injected into your body, remember, that's what viruses do, they replicate their genetic material billions of times in your cells. You are going to meet the RNA one way or another, the question is, do you want to meet 1% of the virus in a vaccine or do you want to meet 100% of it? The question is do you want to meet the whole tiger or just its tail.” “If you are healthy and have gotten your booster by Thanksgiving or Christmas time, I think you are in a pretty good position to travel.” “The risk for catching the virus really is the air exchange whether you are in a building or in a plane.” “In the vaccine world, it's almost unheard of to get a side-effect with a second or third dose in adults.” Episode Overview In this episode, I talk with Dr. Jonathan Baktari to answer some of your most pressing questions about COVID 19.

Today's conversation is a sobering deep dive into the highly controversial but crucial subject that is the COVID-19 vaccine, featuring Jonathan Baktari MD. Dr. Baktari is the CEO of e7 Health, a Las Vegas-based company focused on preventative health and wellness. He kicks off the conversation with a high-level explanation of exactly what a vaccine is. The goal of a vaccine, he says, is to take advantage of the immune system's strengths by “tricking” the body. The body is injected with a portion of a germ, whether that germ is a virus or bacteria. The dose is small enough to get the body to detect the germ, thereby training the immune system to become efficient at fighting it while minimizing the damage it could have done to the body if the germ were “whole”. Dr. Baktari and Chase go on to unpack the trickiest questions the world is now faced with as in navigating the ever-evolving COVID-19 crisis—from how to interpret official data, to the issue of personal freedom versus the common good, to the under-addressed and overlooked public health issue that is a lack of education on prevention.   Follow Jonathan @baktarimd Follow Chase @chase_chewning   Episode resources: Save 20% on your entire first purchase from Legion Athletics with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.legionathletics.com  Save 15% on Sugarbreak with code CHASE at http://sugarbreak.com/chase  Learn more at https://chasechewning.com/podcasts/episode/530

On this episode, hosts Dr. Jose Medina-Inojosa and Alisa Johnsrud talked with Jonathan Baktari, MD, about the Johnson and Johnson vaccine pause due to potentially fatal blood clots after one American died and one is in critical condition. Baktari is a pulmonary and critical care expert, vaccine expert, CEO of two medical companies --e7Health.com and US Drug Test Centers.The trio talked about the Johnson and Johnson vaccine and the importance of the other vaccines. Baktari said the vaccine would be part of the solution to get to herd immunity, so even though it's currently delayed, it will be an essential piece of the puzzle. The Moderna and Pfizer vaccine use mRNA to introduce the virus, while the J&J vaccine uses the adenovirus."It's interesting. The mRNA vaccine has been around for ten years," Baktari said. He elaborated that nobody had the guts to use mRNA because folks would have been hesitant to inject genetic material. The pandemic, however, forced us to use the technology.Vaccines have always been a sensitive subject, as some don't want to use vaccines. For Baktari, he doesn't understand the hesitancy. He noted that people are still so willing to use antibiotics and other drugs, but they don't like it when it comes to vaccines. One of the reasons he thinks is because the government advises it.
