Dr. Chase shares evidence-based strategies like habit-building techniques from Atomic Habits, pairing tasks with rewards, breaking down large projects, and setting boundaries to minimize distractions. She emphasizes that these tools, originally for neurodiverse clients, can enhance efficiency for all professionals pushing their limits. Tune in for part 1, with more on self-monitoring and persistence in part 2 next week. This episode is essential for physicians seeking to sharpen focus, reduce guilt, and reclaim work-life balance.Three Actionable Takeaways:Build Habits Over Willpower – For boring tasks like charting, make cues visible (e.g., set up your workspace for easy access), pair them with rewards (e.g., a favorite tea after completion), and eliminate aversive elements (e.g., adjust your environment to avoid distractions) to increase compliance without relying on sheer grit.Break Down Large Tasks and Minimize Distractions – Tackle complex projects like mandatory modules or side gigs by dividing them into small steps, setting timers or task goals, and using techniques like tone tapes (variable alarms) to self-check focus; reward persistence to maintain motivation.Set Firm Boundaries for Work-Life Balance – Establish clear rules for interruptions (e.g., airplane mode during deep work), secure reliable childcare to close mental "browser tabs," and communicate availability with family and colleagues to stay present at work or home without guilt.About the Show:Succeed In Medicine covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more.

Jarry traces the claim to a 2000 Institute of Medicine report and a 2016 BMJ paper co-authored by Dr. Marty Makary, exposing their flawed extrapolations from small, non-representative studies. He highlights issues like erroneous assumptions, small sample sizes, and the challenge of determining causality in deaths linked to errors. Jarry explains how this inflated statistic fuels fear, drives patients toward unproven alternative treatments, and erodes trust in healthcare. He offers practical ways to push back against the myth while acknowledging the need for improved patient safety systems. This episode is essential for healthcare professionals and patients seeking clarity on medical errors and their true impact.Three Actionable TakeawaysChallenge the Statistic with Facts – When confronted with the claim that medical error is the third leading cause of death, explain that it stems from flawed extrapolations (e.g., 62% of hospital deaths attributed to errors is unrealistic) and cite more reliable estimates (0.6%–5% of hospital deaths).Promote Patient Safety Transparently – Acknowledge medical errors as a real issue but emphasize ongoing efforts to improve safety, like rigorous error reporting systems, to maintain trust without dismissing legitimate concerns.Educate on Context – Share that small, non-representative studies (e.g., Medicare patients or regional data) were misused to inflate error rates, encouraging patients to seek evidence-based care rather than unproven alternatives.About the ShowSucceed In Medicine covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more.

Sal and BT, joined by a caller from Garden City, debate the Yankees' recent bullpen acquisitions. While Sal criticizes the Mets for acquiring rental players with no long-term control, BT defends the Yankees' strategy, arguing that securing pitchers with multi-year control provides a crucial safeguard for the team's future. The conversation intensifies as they discuss the unpredictability of relief pitchers and the importance of having multiple options to navigate the volatile nature of the bullpen.

Brothers Outrun BigfootIn 1976, three brothers—Mike, Harold, and Scott—hiked along Old William Penn Highway, a forested road, to meet girls in Garden City, Monroeville. On their way, they encountered a foul smell, like a dead animal, which unnerved them. After meeting the girls and heading back at midnight, they felt watched. As they walked, something large moved through the forest, paralleling and then approaching them, causing panic. They ran, but the entity kept pace, eventually overtaking them. Mike screamed after seeing a tall, furry creature crouching near the road, watching them. Terrified and in shock, the brothers struggled to reach their car and drove away slowly. Mike described the creature as over six feet tall, covered in fur, and curiously observing them without attacking. The experience left them traumatized, avoiding nighttime hikes and carrying firearms for protection thereafter.Join my Supporters Club for $4.99 per month for exclusive stories:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-if-it-s-true-podcast--5445587/support

In this episode, host Dr. Bradley Block welcomes Dr. Catherine Hannan and Dr. Justin West, to dispel common myths and share essential knowledge for physicians. They discuss the foundational role of wound closure in plastic surgery, from complex trauma cases to aesthetic procedures, and provide guidance on when emergency or primary care doctors should involve plastic surgeons (hint: think “jigsaw puzzle” wounds). The duo also explores wound care principles, such as gentle tissue handling and early hematoma management, and addresses myths about fat grafting and mammograms, highlighting risks like calcifications and diagnostic challenges. Finally, they clarify the distinction between board-certified plastic surgeons and cosmetic surgeons, emphasizing the rigorous training required to handle complex complications. Packed with practical tips and candid insights, this episode empowers physicians to make informed referrals and patients to choose qualified surgeons.Three Actionable Takeaways:Know When to Call Plastic Surgery – For complex wounds with unclear anatomic landmarks or tissue deficits (e.g., dog bites or avulsions), involve a plastic surgeon early; simple linear lacerations can often be managed by ER or urgent care teams.Prioritize Gentle Wound Care – Handle tissues delicately, avoid excessive retraction, use drains proactively to prevent hematomas, and opt for simple, evidence-based dressings like dilute acetic acid over costly skin substitutes.Educate Patients on Surgeon Credentials – Clarify the difference between board-certified plastic surgeons (with extensive residency training) and cosmetic surgeons (with less rigorous certification), ensuring patients understand the expertise needed for safe outcomes.About the Show:Succeed In Medicine covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more. If you're tired of dull medical lectures, tune in for real-world lessons we should have learned in med school!About the Guests:Dr. Catherine Hannan and Dr. Justin West are board-certified plastic surgeons who trained together at Georgetown University's integrated residency program.

In this episode, Dr. Mara Einstein joins host Dr. Bradley Block to explore how brand cults have infiltrated every aspect of our lives, including healthcare.Einstein explains how companies and even online influencers use cult tactics like love bombing, social proof, and identity reinforcement to manipulate vulnerable people. She connects these strategies to the rise of anti-vaccine movements, medical misinformation, and even lifestyle brands masquerading as communities. Physicians, she warns, may think they're immune but they aren't.Together, they explore how digital echo chambers, charismatic figures, and algorithmic reinforcement have created dangerous in-groups and out-groups, eroding trust in science. But there's hope. Dr. Einstein offers practical advice for parents, physicians, and content creators to inoculate themselves and others against manipulation.Three Actionable Takeaways:Recognize the Tactics – Be aware of cult-like methods like love bombing, identity reinforcement, and emotional manipulation in marketing—and teach your patients (and kids) to do the same. Empathize and Stay Open – Don't alienate patients caught in misinformation. Listening without judgment preserves the physician-patient relationship and creates a path for future trust.

Referencing historical pandemics like cholera, Hong Kong flu, and COVID-19, Dr. Evans illustrates how slashing programs such as PEPFAR ($6 billion), Ryan White (part of HRSA's $1.7 billion cut), and refugee health ($2 billion) dismantles global disease surveillance and response systems. These cuts, he warns, could allow outbreaks in regions like Central Africa to spread to American cities, overwhelming hospitals and disrupting economic stability. Dr. Evans critiques the politicization of health policy, including Medicaid reductions and attacks on evidence-based HIV initiatives, which exacerbate poverty and disease spread. Despite these challenges, he finds hope in humanity's ability to unite across divides, urging physicians to frame global health investments as personal and economic protection for their patients. With another pandemic likely within five years, this episode empowers physicians to advocate for resilient public health systems.Three Actionable Takeaways:Connect Global to Local Risks – Educate patients that funding global health programs like PEPFAR prevents diseases from reaching their neighborhoods, ensuring hospital access.Emphasize Economic Stability – Highlight how public health cuts threaten financial markets and personal 401(k)s by causing pandemic-driven instability, advocating for prevention.Push for Evidence-Based Policy – Counter divisive rhetoric by promoting programs like Ryan White to community members, emphasizing their role in community health.About the Show:The Physician's Guide to Doctoring covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more.

Drawing on insights from his work in hospice care and financial independence advocacy, Dr. Grumet challenges the notion that physicians are profit-driven, emphasizing that purpose, not money, sustains medical practice. He cites the Harvard Adult Development Study, which shows interpersonal connections, not wealth, drive happiness, and argues that physicians persist through burnout due to a deep sense of purpose. To counter third-party exploitation by pharmaceutical companies, insurance firms, and private equity, he advocates for “shared storytelling” to close the intimacy gap between providers and patients. By sharing personal struggles publicly through blogs, podcasts, and poetry, physicians can rebuild allyship with patients, fostering a healthcare revolution to demand legislative change. Dr. Grumet's upcoming book, set for release in September 2025, explores these themes, urging providers to humanize their profession.Three Actionable Takeaways:Share Personal Stories Publicly – Use blogs, podcasts, or public speaking to share the emotional challenges of medicine, fostering empathy and trust with patients outside the exam room.Reframe Physician Motivation – When accused of being profit-driven, highlight data showing most physicians earn minimal pharmaceutical payments (less than $1,000 annually), emphasizing purpose over profit.Advocate for Systemic Change – Unite with patients to push for legislative reforms that curb third-party exploitation, such as insulin price caps, to improve healthcare access and affordability.About the Show:The Physician's Guide to Doctoring covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more. If you're tired of dull medical lectures, tune in for real-world lessons we should have learned in med school!About the Guest:Dr. Jordan Grumet is a board-certified internal medicine and hospice physician, also known in financial independence circles as Doc G. He is the author of Taking Stock: A Hospice Doctor's Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Life and The Purpose Code: How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacy. His upcoming book, set for release in September 2025, explores third-party exploitation in healthcare and the power of shared storytelling. A blogger, poet, and speaker, he advocates for purpose-driven medicine to restore public trust.LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/jordan-grumet-38a506179Website: https://jordangrumet.com/Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/ng/podcast/earn-invest/id1440355498About the host:Dr. Bradley Block – Dr. Bradley Block is a board-certified otolaryngologist at ENT and Allergy Associates in Garden City, NY.

Known for her platform Nini and the Brain, Dr. Munoz rose to prominence during the COVID-19 pandemic by demystifying complex clinical data. She explains common statistical manipulations, like base rate fallacy and absolute versus relative risk, using examples such as raw milk claims and fluoride debates. Dr. Munoz emphasizes the difference between risk (quantifiable likelihood of harm) and hazard (potential to cause harm), offering strategies to communicate these concepts to patients by aligning with their personal values. From addressing publication bias to advocating humility in science, this episode equips physicians to counter misleading headlines and foster trust with patients.Three Actionable Takeaways:Spot Base Rate Fallacy – Adjust for population size when comparing health outcomes (e.g., pasteurized vs. raw milk hospitalizations) to avoid misleading absolute numbers and reveal true risk.Question Weak Effects – Scrutinize studies with inconsistent or marginal effects, like fluoride research, by checking for confounders, publication bias, or non-replicable results.Tailor Risk Communication – Frame health advice around patients' personal risks (e.g., vaccine benefits for individual healthcare access) to make data relatable and actionable.About the Show:The Physician's Guide to Doctoring covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more.
