Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Ramona Wallace.

For many, integrative medicine has become an unattainable luxury, and healthy diet and lifestyle the prerogative of the privileged. Today's guest, Dr. Ramona Wallace, is attempting to change that. Trained conventionally as a DO, she undertook additional training and certification via the Institute for Functional Medicine to broaden her clinical skills. She practices primary care in an underserved community in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where she incorporates diet and lifestyle recommendations to address her patients' chronic conditions. Careful nutritional assessment has revealed that many of her patients, while overtly overweight, are decidedly malnourished. She has documented a wide range of deficiencies—of B vitamins, vitamins A, C, and D, critical minerals like zinc and magnesium, even full-blown scurvy. These are precisely the patients who are most likely to benefit from nutritional support. Discovering obstacles to compliance is a key element to effect their health transformations. Dr. Wallace believes that individualized care is the key to reversing long-standing health conditions. She mentors medical students in the first-of-its-kind Functional Medicine program at a medical school. She has also co-authored a landmark paper arguing for wellness self-care by doctors, to stave off burnout and to help them be better role models for patients.

Political commentator and Integrity Institute director Bryce Edwards says it is not a health policy, but a political decision made without due process. He speaks to Emile. 

(00:00) Reflections on Medical School and Healthcare(11:01) Evaluating Medical School Admissions Criteria(15:10) Navigating Changes in Medical Education(20:53) Adapting to Changes in Medical EducationFrom a first-generation college student passionate about science to the founder of Medical School Headquarters, my journey in the world of medicine has been anything but ordinary. My early aspirations to become an orthopedic surgeon were pivoted by a life-altering injury, steering me toward a path in medicine where collaboration trumped competition, even when faced with discouraging academic advice.As we track the shifting landscape of medical school admissions, I share insights on how empathy, communication, and leadership have become just as crucial as GPA and MCAT scores. Conversations with fellow parents and colleagues reveal a new paradigm where schools cherish soft skills to foster successful patient outcomes. While some institutions still cling to academic metrics, there's a growing acknowledgment of the significance of compassionate care, encouraging future doctors to become empathetic caregivers and active community members.Navigating the evolving realm of medical education, we tackle the ripple effects of policy changes, like the Supreme Court's stance on affirmative action and potential shifts in loan forgiveness programs. Despite these challenges, there's a surge in privately funded residency positions that open doors for new generations of medical students. By exploring initiatives like Application Renovation and the role of AI in medicine, we underscore the need for adaptability in this dynamic field, ensuring that aspiring doctors are well-prepared for the future of healthcare.

There's concerns over whether the costs for the new Waikato University medical school will blow out and be passed on to taxpayers. Cabinet will contribute $80 million to the $230-million-dollar Waikato University school, which is expected to open in 2028 for 120 trainees. University of Waikato Vice-Chancellor Neil Quigley says the university is on track for a surplus of $20 million this financial year. "The university is in really good financial shape, enrolments have risen very quickly this year...and we have no debt at the moment either."

The government has green-lit a new medical school at the University of Waikato, ending months of delays due to coalition wrangling. It was a National election promise, and it has finally got the go ahead, with the government announcing it will front up around $80 million while the University pays $150 million for the project. It will add 120 doctor training places each year, starting in 2028. The announcement also came as inflation edges to a 12-month high, and the Minister in charge of Pharmac released a new letter of expectations. Political reporter Lillian Hanly spoke to Melissa Chan-Green.

The University of Waikato's Vice Chancellor says he's not worried about the government's reduction in funding for its third medical school. Professor Neil Quigley spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Cabinet has approved the business case for a third medical school, but the total budget has reduced from $380 million to $230 million, with the university expected to stump up the lion's share of $150 million. Acting political editor Craig McCulloch spoke to Corin Dann.

The government contribution to a third medical school at the University of Waikato is $200 million less than previously anticipated. Health Minister Simeon Brown spoke to Corin Dann.

The Union for Junior Doctors wants assurances that Waikato University can raise the extra $150 million needed from donors to fund its new medical school. National secretary Deborah Powell spoke to Corin Dann.

Labour is calling the approval for a third medical school an unclear investment and wants costings for the project released immediately. Labour's spokesperson for health Ayesha Verrall spoke to Corin Dann.

The second existing medical school is in Auckland. Dean of the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences in Auckland Professor Warwick Bagg spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

There's optimism the new medical school will ensure a future influx of GP specialists. Waikato University's newly announced medical school will begin construction this year, opening the doors to 120 trainees in 2028. It will focus on primary and rural care. Vice Chancellor Neil Quigley told Mike Hosking students could choose not to specialise in rural health or become a GP, but there are ways of addressing this. He says Australian institutions use selection mechanisms which, if implemented, create a markedly different workforce. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Construction will begin this year on a new medical school at Waikato University. The Government's chipping in $83 million, alongside $150 million from the University and philanthropic investors. It'll have a strong focus on primary care and rural health and offer a graduate-entry programme. Health Minister Simeon Brown told Mike Hosking they've gone through a rigorous process to ensure it's as efficient and cost-effective as possible, so they can build the long-term pipeline that New Zealand needs. The postgraduate course element is already a successful model in Australia, he says. Brown told Hosking that it's about attracting people who are already living in rural communities, giving them opportunities to train and stay in place so we can attract and retain graduates.

Construction will begin this year on a new medical school at Waikato University. The Government has given it the go ahead - and is providing $83 million dollars towards the project.

"This is about attracting people from those rural communities working potentially in healthcare or different roles and giving them the opportunity to upskill or become a doctor."

The Prime Minister has confirmed a Waikato medical school's coming, with construction beginning this year.

Now, here's a prediction for you - watch those Waikato University medical school costs blowout. I reckon it's gonna blow out and there's all the signs this thing is gonna blow out. Even when the Waikato University was itself putting in less money, which is $100 million, there were questions about whether it could afford it because Waikato University's debt level is maxed out at the moment. So everybody looked at it and went, are you actually gonna be able to afford it? Well now, it not only has to put in the $100 million, it has to put in $150 million between itself and some philanthropists it needs to find. Now, what do you think happens if for whatever reason, it cannot quite find that money? Who do you think is going to be called upon to fund the gap? The long-suffering taxpayer. That's a blowout for us. Now, that's not even mentioning the chances that this thing costs much more than what they say it's gonna cost. I'm very suspicious about how it is that a $380 million project suddenly got cut down to $230 million without anything actually being cut out of it. How did that happen? And even at the higher estimate, which was $380 million, I was already worried that that wasn't really going to cover it, because there were warnings then that it was going to blow out - because the thing is being rushed. Treasury said that whenever we rush things, like the Dunedin Hospital build, we end up with unexpected and often urgent cost escalations. Now, I'm incredibly cynical about the fact that this has somehow managed to radically cut the costs of a scheme that was being questioned for being too expensive and unnecessary when we already have two medical schools. And I worry very much that we have been presented the best case scenario to get us across the line on a National Party election promise that actually wasn't stacking up anymore. And that once we've invested in this and the shovels are in the ground and the costs start to blow out, we go - well, we're already pouring money into it, we simply will have to continue pouring money into it, which is how this always goes. So I hope that this comes in under budget, and if it does, I absolutely will apologize for what I'm saying right now, but I don't think it will.

The Finance Minister says the costs involved in building a new medical school at Waikato University have been through a thorough business case. Construction will begin this year - with the school providing 120 doctor training places a year, focused on primary care and rural health. The Government's chipping in $83 million dollars, and the university and philanthropic investors will contribute $150 million. When asked what would happen if the others can't come up with the money, Nicola Willis was clear. "I'm going to say - well, you said you would, so you're in trouble now and you're going to have to find the money." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
