Quote of the Day: “You have the power over your mind – not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.” ~ Marcus Aurelius Why do my veins seem bigger in the summer? That question leads Emmy Award-winning Journalist Kym McNicholas into an in-depth discussion with co-host Interventional Cardiologist Dr. John Phillips, Hill Vascular's Vascular Surgeon Dr. Bradley hill, and world-renowned vein expert from London, Dr. Mark Whitely, about varicose veins, chronic venous insufficiency, and Deep Venous Thrombosis (blood clots). They talk about the reasons why only 10% of the 30 million Americans, who are estimated to have venous issues, actually get treated and what the advanced treatments are for not only superficial veins but also deep veins. A key issue in this show's discussion is types of vein issues that are merely cosmetic versus ones that indicate a more significant health risk that must be addressed. A debate also arose about the use of compression socks as frontline treatment for many venous issues and the difference in philosophy between the United Kingdom and United States. Dr. Misha Ginsberg, Interventional Radiologist at Froedtert South in Wisconsin called in after hearing the discussion to join in and share his perspective. The one critical non-negotiable when it comes to compression stockings, as expressed by Dr. Bradley Hill and agreed upon by all doctors present on the show, is for use on long flights and car rides. That's because when sedentary the leg muscles aren't contracting as effectively as they do when walking to help usher the blood back to the heart, and blood clots can develop. Listen to the show for a dynamic discussion about venous health, critical questions that should be asked of every patient who presents with vein-related symptoms, and when treatment should be sought.
“Real experts are wrong and will admit that they're wrong. Actually one of the ways that you can identify an expert is, you can search them admitting to being wrong at some point in time. Because, you know, people who are never wrong aren't experts, they're jerks.” - Dr. Mark Hoofnagle In episode 168, Master Certified Coach Jill Farmer welcomes Dr. Mark Hoofnagle to the podcast. Dr. Hoofnagle is assistant professor of surgery in the section of Acute Critical Care Surgery at the Washington University in St Louis. He has been writing about critical thinking and science denialism since 2007. In this episode, he explains the many ways that the public is duped by misinformation, why people are so susceptible to misinformation and what, as doctors, we can do when our patients believe something other than the correct science. He also gives us tips for meaningful communication with patients or anyone in our lives who may be misinformed. Mark Hoofnagle MD/PhD trained at University of Virginia School of Medicine for medical school, University of Maryland Medical Center for General Surgery and University of Pennsylvania for Trauma and critical care and is now assistant professor of surgery in the section of Acute Critical Care Surgery at the Washington University in St Louis. He researches Deep Venous Thrombosis in trauma and gun violence at Washington University, and has written about critical thinking and denialism since 2007. His essay on “What is Denialism” on Scienceblogs from 2007 created framework for understanding the public dissemination of anti-science narratives, has been cited in the International Journal of Public Health and Nature, and provides context for understanding current disinformation and misinformation campaigns.
