In this episode of Behind the Knife, the minimally invasive surgery (MIS) team dives deep into the evolving field of common bile duct exploration (CBDE). From the historical context of laparoscopic approaches to the latest advances including robotic-assisted techniques, Drs. Shaina Eckhouse, James Jung, Zachary Weitzner, and Joey Lew discuss key evidence shaping modern practice. Listeners will learn about indications and anatomy guiding trans-cystic versus trans-choledochal approaches, practical tips for safe stone clearance, and critical considerations around learning curves and team coordination for robotic procedures. The episode also highlights important studies comparing single-stage laparoscopic CBDE with staged ERCP and cholecystectomy, emphasizing outcomes such as stone clearance, pancreatitis rates, and hospital length of stay. This comprehensive overview is a must-listen for MIS and acute care surgeons interested in optimizing the management of choledocholithiasis and streamlining patient care with minimally invasive techniques.

https://teachhoops.com/ The final score tells you who won, but it rarely tells you why or how to fix it for next time. In this episode, we challenge coaches to look past the win-loss column and adopt a more analytical approach to post-game evaluation. We discuss the danger of "outcome bias"—thinking you played well just because you won—and why a process-oriented grading system is essential for long-term program development. We set the stage for ten specific metrics that reveal the true health of your team's performance. We break down the "10 Ways" into tangible categories, moving from advanced analytics to subjective "hustle" measurements. We talk about the importance of tracking "kills" (three defensive stops in a row), analyzing live-ball versus dead-ball turnover ratios, and grading the quality of shots taken regardless of whether they went in. This section provides a blueprint for what you should actually be looking for when you sit down to watch the game film, ensuring you aren't just watching the game as a fan but dissecting it like a surgeon. Finally, we discuss how to communicate these evaluations to your players without overwhelming them with data. It is one thing for the coaching staff to know the team failed to box out on 40% of possessions; it is another to translate that into a practice plan that fixes the habit. We cover how to pick the "one big thing" from your ten-point evaluation to focus on in the next practice, creating a feedback loop that turns post-game analysis into pre-game preparation for the next opponent.

Are you prepared for the major life catalysts that may influence your retirement planning and long-term lifestyle? In this episode of the Retire Sooner Podcast, Wes Moss and Producer Mallory highlight key moments that can shape financial decisions, expectations, and overall well-being. • Explore how the “Retire Sooner Richter Scale” frames the relative influence of major life catalysts on retirement planning. • Recognize how family transitions—college milestones, caring for aging parents, or losing a spouse—may shift emotional, logistical, and financial considerations. • Consider how relationship changes, such as marriage, remarriage, or divorce, may alter household finances and planning priorities. • Evaluate how moving, home renovations, or major projects can temporarily affect budgets and long-term plans. • Embrace core pursuits, travel decisions, and lifelong learning as accessible ways to support purpose and engagement in retirement. • Assess job changes, early retirement offers, or selling a business as catalysts for reassessing benefits, income, and next-phase goals. • Acknowledge that inheritance may help, but generally works best as a supplemental planning element. • Track milestone ages—59½, 62, 65, 67, 70, 73—that align with key retirement, Social Security, and healthcare rules. • Explore “unretirement,” including part-time work or renewed professional involvement. • Monitor market conditions and potential tax law changes that may influence planning assumptions. • Prioritize reducing debt, including mortgages, to support long-term flexibility. • Anticipate long-term care needs and evaluate available coverage options. • Update estate documents—wills, trusts, and powers of attorney—as circumstances evolve. If you want a concise, research-informed overview of catalysts that may influence retirement readiness, this episode delivers meaningful context.

Community: The Hidden Engine Behind Every Successful Cash PT Clinic In this episode, Doc Danny Matta shares the single theme that stood out after spending a full week embedded inside four different cash-based and boutique rehab businesses in Washington, D.C.: community. He breaks down why community involvement is the ultimate competitive advantage, how it fuels long-term growth, and why you can't fake it—or skip it—if you want a thriving practice. Quick Ask If this episode challenges the way you think about growing your practice, share it with another clinician who needs to hear it—and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare it. Episode Summary Documentation burden solved: AI scribes like Clair eliminate notes so you stay present with patients. The D.C. trip: Danny spent full days inside four thriving clinics, observing their operations, patients, and culture. One takeaway: Every successful clinic shared the same backbone—deep community involvement. Community is earned: You can't fake participation; you must show up consistently and authentically. Clinician examples: Pilates studios, running groups, boutique fitness hubs—all thriving because owners live inside the communities they serve. Your niche = your tribe: If you're not plugged into your niche's world, someone else will be. Give more than you take: Communities reward contributors, not extractors. Lessons & Takeaways Community drives retention: Patients stick when they feel connected—not just treated. You must participate: Go to races, gyms, events, tournaments; be where your niche actually lives. You can't fake interest: If you hate running, don't try to be a running PT—hire someone who loves it. Your presence builds reputation: When people see you consistently, trust builds effortlessly. Local involvement compounds: Over years, you become a recognizable part of your city's health ecosystem. Mindset & Motivation Play the long game: Community isn't built in 30 days—it's built through years of showing up. Pick what you enjoy: Your energy is higher and your authenticity obvious when you actually like the niche you serve. Give first, receive later: The tribe takes care of contributors. Local roots matter: Even if you grew up moving around (like Danny), you can build community intentionally. Community is a moat: No amount of marketing can replace genuine involvement. Pro Tips for Clinic Owners Use an AI scribe: Tools like Clair free up hours so you can deepen relationships, not write notes. Engage where your niche lives: Join their gyms, events, groups, classes—don't just "network." Participate. Host or join local events: Run groups, wellness fairs, meetups, workshops, boutique fitness partnerships. Be a connector: Bring other local business owners together—become the hub. Hire for gaps: If you don't love a niche, hire clinicians who genuinely do. Notable Quotes "You can't fake community. People know when you're genuinely involved versus when you're just showing up for patients." "If you pour into your community, your community will take care of you." "Some of these clinics are like local celebrities in their niche—because they've earned it." "Pick the community you enjoy. You'll never stick with something you secretly hate." Action Items Identify one niche you naturally enjoy being around. Join three of their events or classes this month. Start conversations—not pitches—with people in your niche community. Partner with one local gym, coach, or instructor. Evaluate your schedule and offload notes with Clair so you can spend more time engaging locally.

Do you have a “hopeless” retained root you're ready to extract? Think implants, dentures, or bridges are the only way forward? What if there's a way to save that tooth — predictably and biologically? In this episode, Dr. Vala Seif shares his experience with the Surgical Extrusion Technique — a game-changing approach that lets you reposition the root coronally to regain ferrule and restore teeth once thought impossible to save. Jaz and Dr. Seif dive into case selection, atraumatic technique, stabilization, and timing, all guided by Dr. Seif's own SAFE/SEIF Protocol, developed from over 200 successful cases. https://youtu.be/2TyodqgAP9w Watch PDP249 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl: When checking a ferrule, consider height, thickness, and location of functional load. Upper teeth: prioritize palatal ferrule. Lower teeth: prioritize buccal. Tip: do a partial surgical extrusion, rotate the tooth 180°, then stabilize. Key Takeaways Surgical extrusion is a technique-sensitive procedure that requires careful planning. Case selection is crucial for the success of surgical extrusion. A crown-root ratio of 1:1 is ideal for surgical extrusion. Patients are often more cooperative when they see surgical extrusion as their last chance to save a tooth. Surgical extrusion can be more efficient than orthodontic extrusion in certain cases. The importance of ferrule in dental restorations cannot be overstated. Proper case selection is crucial for successful outcomes. Atraumatic techniques are essential for preserving tooth structure. The 'Safe Protocol' offers a structured approach to surgical extrusion. Patient communication is key to managing expectations. Flowable composite is preferred for tooth fixation post-extraction. Understanding root morphology is important for successful extractions.

The Coming Wave: Why Cash PT Is Headed Toward National Consolidation In this episode, Doc Danny Matta breaks down a bold prediction for the next decade of cash-based physical therapy: the rise of the first nationwide cash PT brand. He explains why the market is primed for massive consolidation, how well-funded companies will change the competitive landscape, and what independent PTs must do now to protect their clinics and stay ahead. Quick Ask If this episode helps you think strategically about your business, share it with another clinician who needs to hear it—and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare it. Let's help more PTs build resilient, future-proof practices. Episode Summary Documentation burnout: Notes are the #1 satisfaction killer for PTs—but AI scribes like Clair are changing that. The big prediction: A dominant, well-funded cash PT brand will emerge within 5–10 years. Why it's coming: Cash PT is a fragmented industry—making it ripe for consolidation. Parallel to CrossFit: Independent affiliates → OrangeTheory-style scaling. The MYO example: A clinically strong, business-savvy brand already expanding across North America. Funding accelerates growth: Capitalized clinics can outspend and outscale local competitors. The risk to small clinics: Owners who don't level up in business skills will be the first to get squeezed out. Lessons & Takeaways Strong brand identity matters: Your niche and reputation must be crystal clear. Community ties protect you: Local loyalty beats national branding when done right. Systems = survival: Without consistent processes, you can't compete with scaled clinics. Capital changes the game: Funded competitors can move faster and spend more to dominate markets. Seven-figure clinics are the safe zone: Multiple clinicians = stability, hiring power, and insulation. Mindset & Motivation Control what you can control: You can't stop national brands, but you can out-serve them locally. Play offense, not defense: Staying tiny isn't safe—it's risky. Growth is protection: More clinicians = stronger brand, stronger community presence, and stronger cash flow. Embrace the opportunity: Rising interest in cash PT means a larger market for everyone. Pro Tips for Clinic Owners Automate documentation: Use Clair to reclaim time, reduce burnout, and stay patient-focused. Dial in your niche: Own a specific population so deeply that national chains can't replicate you. Invest in brand building: Your logo, message, and community presence matter more than ever. Master sales & marketing: Cash PT requires top-tier communication and value clarity. Train your team relentlessly: Quality control keeps your outcomes consistent across clinicians. Notable Quotes "Any fragmented industry eventually consolidates. Cash PT is no different." "If you stay tiny because you think it's safe, you're actually more vulnerable than ever." "A national cash PT brand will sell for nine figures—or more. The momentum is already here." "Your community, your niche, your service—those are your moats." Action Items Audit your brand: is it recognizable, niche-specific, and memorable? Evaluate your systems: documentation, scheduling, marketing, and sales. Assess your growth plan: is staying small really safe for the next decade? Study fast-scaling companies like MYO to understand future competition. Start using an AI scribe like Clair to free up hours of mental bandwidth.

Show SummaryNatalie Elliott Handy, a caregiver for her husband and mother and co-host of the Confessions of a Reluctant Caregiver Podcast. During our conversation, we share the commitment that she and her sister have to highlighting and supporting military connected caregivers. Provide FeedbackAs a dedicated member of the audience, we would like to hear from you about the show. Please take a few minutes to share your thoughts about the show in this short feedback survey. By doing so, you will be entered to receive a signed copy of one of our host's three books on military and veteran mental health. About Today's GuestNatalie is someone who genuinely loves people. She has a natural passion for meeting new faces, staying closely connected with family, friends, and colleagues, and, most of all, helping others. Anyone who knows her will readily say, “Natalie doesn't know a stranger.” It's simply who she has always been.Raised in her family's hardware store, Natalie learned early how to engage customers — and how to count change — by talking to everyone who walked through the door. At church, she was the first to volunteer to sing, recite Bible verses in “big church,” and attend every youth activity, especially lock-ins. In school, her teachers often placed her in the front row to help minimize “distractions,” because she was, without a doubt, a social butterfly.Those gifts — her ability to connect, her quick wit, and her desire to support others — naturally led her into leadership roles throughout her career in the mental health field. She married young at 21 and, many years later, again at 39. She often describes her first marriage as a light-hearted “practice run” with someone kind, but not Jason, the partner she shares her life with today.From the outside, Natalie's life looked picture-perfect: a fulfilling job, a loving husband, a close-knit support system, and of course, her beloved dogs. But behind the scenes, she was burning the candle at both ends — working 12-hour days, six days a week, answering every request with, “No problem. Happy to help.”Everything shifted when Jason was diagnosed with cancer in March 2022. In the midst of that crisis, Natalie confronted the truth that she couldn't keep living at that pace. During those darkest moments, she reconnected with her faith and, through that, rediscovered her true self. She learned to acknowledge her imperfections and, more importantly, to love herself fully — flaws and all.Today, Natalie has reordered her life with clear priorities: God, herself, Jason, family and friends, and then work. She says “no” far more often, seeks silver linings in difficult moments, and is grateful for the journey that led her to live God's plan instead of her own. She embraces the mantra of being “perfectly imperfect.”Her mission is simple: to share stories and experiences that inspire, uplift, and — whenever possible — spark a little laughter. She strives to encourage others to be true to themselves while supporting the people they love. And along the way, she fully intends to keep making new friends.Links Mentioned During the EpisodeConfessions of a Reluctant Caregiver Website2024 Heroes Caring for Heroes series2023 Heroes Caring for Heroes seriesPsychArmor Resource of the WeekThis week's PsychArmor Resource of the Week is the PsychArmor course course Understanding the VA for Caregivers.
