Welcome to another episode of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this inspiring episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. Cynthia Chen-Joea, a double board-certified family and obesity medicine physician, educator, and passionate advocate for physician wellness. Dr. Cynthia shares her personal journey from academic medicine through the challenges of burnout, her transformative experience with coaching, and how becoming a parent reshaped her professional values and priorities. Together, they dive deep into the realities of trauma and harm in medical training, the persistence of unhealthy work habits into clinical practice, and the importance of redefining our identities as physicians. Dr. Cynthia also discusses practical strategies for establishing boundaries, healing from the pressures of perfectionism and people-pleasing, and making medicine truly sustainable. You'll hear about her current work supporting physicians through coaching, retreats, and advocacy, and discover how small daily changes can lead to a more meaningful, balanced career. If you've ever questioned what it means to thrive in medicine, or wondered how to reclaim your empathy and joy for the profession, this conversation is packed with insightful stories and actionable advice. Tune in for a message of hope, transformation, and the reminder that a sustainable career in medicine is possible. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Medical training often normalizes unhealthy patterns: Dr. Chen-Joea highlights how the culture of self-sacrifice and hierarchy during medical training can introduce trauma, shaping physicians to ignore their own needs. Breaking these cycles is essential for lasting well-being. Redefining your career is possible—and necessary: Whether through coaching, boundary-setting, or exploring new roles, Dr. Chen-Joea emphasizes that medicine can be sustainable. Small, intentional changes—like building in non-negotiable personal time—can have a huge impact. Trauma awareness matters (and it's practical): Understanding your own “activation” responses (like fight, flight, freeze, or fawn) is key. Recognizing these signs allows clinicians to proactively care for themselves and model healthy behaviors for colleagues and patients alike. Meet Dr. Cynthia Chen-Joea: Dr. Cynthia Chen-Joea is a physician career and life coach dedicated to helping early-career physicians finding sustainability in medicine by achieving their “career by design” goals while cultivating a healthy work-life balance. She is a double board-certified physician in family and obesity medicine. Dr. Chen-Joea currently serves as a Medical Director of Copa de Oro Medical Group and Inpatient Director at the Charles Drew Family Medicine Residency Program. In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Chen-Joea has held numerous leadership roles, including her past position as Department Chair of Family Medicine, Secretary-Treasurer of the Medical Staff and Physician Advisor at Emanate Health. She is also very active in advocacy on her local, state and national specialty organizations, and currently represents her peers as the New Physician Director on the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) Board of Directors. Dr. Chen-Joea is passionate about advancing physician wellness, advocating at the systemic level, and providing individual coaching support to empower physicians in achieving sustainable careers in medicine. Her interests include inpatient medicine, leadership, advocacy, procedures and women's health. Outside of work, Dr. Chen-Joea enjoys quality time with her two-year-old daughter and her nine-year-old pup, traveling and exploring new cultures with her husband, savoring delicious foods, practicing yoga and Pilates, and indulging in the occasional Netflix reality TV binge.

This episode of Perimenopause: Head to Toe features Dr. Sameena Rahman, an OB-GYN and specialist in sexual medicine and menopause. She is also the founder of the GYN and Sexual Medicine CollectiveDr. Rahman highlights that women in their mid-40s often experience confusing bodily changes. Symptoms include: Menstrual Changes: Unpredictable periods, with some becoming heavier or stopping for months. Physical & Emotional Symptoms: Intimate dryness, reduced libido, sleep issues, hot flashes, brain fog, and irritability.Systemic Issues in Women's HealthcareThe conversation addresses challenges within the medical system. A Patriarchal System: The doctors agree that the healthcare system is historically patriarchal, resulting in a lack of research and understanding of women's health. Medical Training Gap: The doctors note that medical school training often overlooks the significant emotional and cognitive effects of perimenopause, focusing instead on hot flashes and irregular periods. The "Double Whammy": They point out that because the OB-GYN field is largely female, there's an unspoken expectation to manage all aspects of women's health with limited resources, leading to provider burnout and inadequate patient care.Cultural Differences and BiasDr. Rahman, who is South Asian, discusses unique challenges for women of color. Earlier Onset: Women of color, including Black and South Asian women, often experience perimenopause and menopause earlier. This is linked to allostatic load, the cumulative "wear and tear" from chronic stress. Stigma: Cultural factors like stoicism and taboos around sex lead to a reluctance to seek medical help. Health Disparities: The episode notes higher rates of heart disease and diabetes in the South Asian population.About Dr. Rahman's Practice and BookDr. Sameena Rahman is a board-certified OB/GYN, sex-med gynecologist, menopause specialist and a clinical assistant professor of OB/GYN at the Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine. She is the founder of the Gyn & Sexual Medicine Collective, a successful concierge practice that emphasizes evidence-based medicine and an affiliate of Ms. Medicine. Dr. Rahman is dedicated to evaluating and treating each patient with compassion, trauma-informed care, and an awareness of personal bias. Additionally, she hosts the podcast Gyno Girl Presents: Sex, Drugs & Hormones.Her upcoming book, "Brown Girls Disease? A Guide to Sexual Health and Empowerment Through a South Asian Lens," explores sexual health issues from a unique cultural and religious perspective.

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.
Welcome back to Ditch the Labcoat with Dr. Mark Bonta! In this episode, we dive into the world of burnout—what it really looks like, how it creeps into even the most resilient among us, and, most importantly, what we can do to prevent it. Dr. Mark sits down with Dr. Judy Wright, a physician, performance strategist, burnout survivor, and the founder of JW Health Consulting. Dr. Wright brings a unique blend of medical expertise and personal experience to the conversation, sharing hard-won insights and practical tools that go beyond the surface-level “self-care” advice.From the silent lessons learned in medical school anatomy labs to the coping strategies (and comical dinner table conversations) that help healthcare workers weather the toughest shifts, Mark and Judy unpack what it really means to build resilience in high-stress environments. But these lessons aren't just for doctors and nurses. Whether you're managing a team, running a classroom, or simply juggling daily life, you'll find actionable advice—from five-minute reset techniques to the importance of building a support network before you desperately need one.Get ready for a candid, insightful, and wide-ranging conversation that will challenge you to rethink your approach to stress, burnout, and what it means to truly look after yourself at work and beyond.Episode HighlightsProactively Build Support Systems – Don't wait for crisis—establish a network of support inside and outside work to safeguard mental health and resilience.Normalize Emotional Boundaries – Healthcare workers are taught to compartmentalize; this is protective but needs healthy awareness to prevent detachment or apathy.Coping Skills Should Be Taught – Resilience and compartmentalization should be addressed directly in training, not just absorbed by osmosis or workplace culture.Talking Helps Heal Trauma – Debriefing difficult experiences with colleagues, friends, or professionals significantly boosts emotional processing and resilience.Early Self-Awareness Is Critical – Recognizing feelings of overwhelm or burnout early on is the best prevention, allowing intervention before serious harm is done.Burnout Is a Slow Erosion – It's not sudden; burnout creeps in gradually. Regular self-checks and honest reflection prevent it from taking root.Self-Care Is Individualized – Effective self-care goes beyond popular trends; it must be meaningful and restorative specifically for you.Small Pauses Make a Difference – Taking even a five-minute break—for breath work, movement, hydration, or reflection—can disrupt stress accumulation.Burnout Affects All Life Areas – Professional burnout inevitably spills into personal life, impacting thinking, relationships, and daily functioning.You Can Reinvent Your Career – There are multiple fulfilling paths beyond traditional clinical roles. If the current job isn't right, change is possible.Episode Timestamps 06:02 – Adapting to Cadaver Work 09:05 – Healthcare Workers' Emotional Challenges 10:03 – Emotional Detachment and Coping Mechanisms 13:16 – Debriefing's Role in Mental Health 17:02 – Early Healthcare Career Challenges 19:44 – Balancing Emotions in Medical Training 25:50 – Work-Life Interconnection Dynamics 29:33 – Importance of Building a Support System 30:18 – Integrating Self-Care with Work 34:30 – Exploring Diverse Medical Careers 39:30 – Prioritize Individualized Self-Care 40:54 – Authentic Self-Care Beyond Mani-Pedis 43:29 – Self-Care for Post-Work Recharge 47:40 – Workplace Energy and Self-Assessment 51:10 – Grounding Techniques for Resilience

Academic physician executive William Wertheim discusses his article, "America, our health care workforce training isn't evolving alongside our needs." He argues that the U.S. medical system is training professionals who will not meet the needs of the country's rapidly aging population. With the number of Americans over 65 expected to reach 82 million by 2050, specialties like geriatrics are in decline, with only 42 percent of fellowship positions filled in 2023. William explains that this problem extends to projected shortages in primary care, oncology, and other specialties, which is especially acute in rural areas where "distance decay" limits access to care. He identifies a critical bottleneck in the training pipeline: while medical school enrollment is high, a lack of corresponding residency positions prevents qualified doctors from entering the workforce. While tools like AI and telehealth can help, they cannot replace the need for a comprehensive strategy to expand training capacity and align medical education with the demographic realities of today and tomorrow.

Heute klären wir eine Frage, die mir über Instagram geschickt wurde und die garantiert viele von euch beschäftigt: Muss ich beim Clickertraining wirklich jedes Mal 20 bis 30 Leckerlis geben? Und will ich das überhaupt, vor allem, wenn ich an die zusätzlichen Kalorien denke, die meine Katze dann zu sich nimmt?

Heute habe ich eine Folge für dich, die bereits 2023 erschienen ist, aber nichts an Aktualität verloren hat. Denn gute Trainingsprinzipien dürfen wir uns immer wieder bewusst machen. Es geht um das Modell “Humane Hierarchy of Behavioral Change” von Dr. Susan Friedman. Du erfährst, welche sechs Seitenstraßen es zur Verhaltensveränderung gibt und warum es so wichtig ist, möglichst lange auf den ersten drei Wegen zu bleiben. Ich teile meine Gedanken dazu, ob die letzten Schritte im Modell überhaupt noch zeitgemäß sind und lade dich ein, dich selbst mal zu fragen Wo stehst du im Training? Und welche Wege nutzt du bereits? Diese Folge ist nicht nur hilfreich für dein Katzentraining, sondern auch für dich selbst und dein Miteinander mit anderen Menschen. Heute erfährst du... - was die Humane Hierarchy ist und wie du sie für dein Katzentraining nutzen kannst - warum du beim Training idealerweise nur die ersten drei “Seitenstraßen” brauchst - welche Fragen du dir stellen solltest, bevor du zu aversiven Methoden greifst - wie du durch Umgebungsmanagement und positive Verstärkung Veränderung erzielst - warum das Modell nicht nur für Tiere, sondern auch für Menschen hilfreich ist - wie du durch das Reflektieren deiner eigenen Bedürfnisse Verhalten sanft beeinflussen kannst Weiterführende Episoden zum Thema dieser Folge: - Podcastfolge [„Schmerzgesicht - so erkennst du, ob deine Katze Schmerzen hat"](https://katze.podigee.io/95-schmerzgesicht-so-erkennst-du-ob-deine-katze-schmerzen-hat) - Podcastfolge ["FORL- das stille Leiden bei Katzen"](https://katze.podigee.io/94-forl-das-stille-leiden-bei-katzen) ** Mehr von mir: ** [Mein Instagram Kanal ](https://www.instagram.com/clicker.cat/) [Meine Webseite](https://clickercat.ch/) Du bist noch ganz neu beim Clickern?

On this episode of Ditch the Lab Coat, Dr. Mark Bonta sits down with Dr. Georg Haymerle—once a top head and neck surgeon in Europe and Australia, now a dedicated advocate for culture change in medicine. Georg's journey is anything but typical: after reaching the pinnacle of surgical mastery, he made the radical decision to walk away—not because of burnout or failure, but to confront the invisible crisis unraveling healthcare teams from within.Join us as we dive into Dr. Haymerle's powerful story: from the grueling demands of 14-hour cancer surgeries and the accidental discovery of high-functioning, trust-based teams, to the moment when his own department's spirit collapsed under uncertainty. We'll explore why human factors like psychological safety and simple acts of gratitude can impact patient outcomes just as much as surgical skill. Dr. Haymerle takes us inside the often-overlooked world of healthcare team dynamics, revealing why he left the operating room behind to fix something even more delicate than anatomy: the fractured culture that shapes how care is delivered.If you've ever wondered whether culture truly matters in medicine—or how speaking up, vulnerability, and a heartfelt “thank you” might just save a life—this episode will stay with you long after you listen. Tune in for a heartfelt, evidence-based conversation about what really keeps healthcare teams—and their patients—thriving.Episode Highlights1. Team Spirit Transforms Outcomes — Cohesive, trusting teams dramatically improve surgical efficiency and patient safety, sometimes reducing surgery times by hours.2. Culture Changes Everything — Good workplace culture is just as critical as skill—loss of hope or toxic environments erode performance and morale.3. Technical Skill Isn't Enough — High technical mastery won't guarantee success if team dynamics and relationships are neglected or dysfunctional.4. Vulnerability Builds Excellence — When team members can safely show weaknesses and ask for help, everyone benefits, including patient outcomes.5. Money Isn't the Motivator — Financial rewards alone don't solve morale or performance issues; intrinsic motivators and appreciation matter more.6. Gratitude Is Powerful Medicine — Simple, genuine thank-yous are rare but transformative, fueling motivation, engagement, and mutual respect in healthcare teams.7. Speaking Up Saves Lives — Creating environments where all voices are heard—regardless of hierarchy—prevents errors and fosters innovation.8. Change Requires Leadership Buy-In — Cultural shifts succeed only when leaders acknowledge problems and model openness to feedback and improvement.9. Early Intervention Matters — Recognizing “the spiral” of team dysfunction early and addressing it promptly can prevent long-term damage and staff turnover.10. Healthcare Must Evolve — Emphasizing the human side of medicine—connection, gratitude, honest conversation—represents the future of safe, effective healthcare.Episode Timestamps03:58 — Career Shift in Healthcare Path06:41 — From Timid to Skilled Surgeon10:12 — Human Factors Impact Medical Outcomes14:33 — Creating a High-Performing Team19:10 — Building Trust for Departmental Progress22:37 — Surgical Trainee Silence Dilemma23:26 — Breaking Hierarchies: Encouraging Open Dialogue26:56 — Healthcare Organizations' Capacity for Change32:49 — Austrian Healthcare's Resistance to Change34:26 — Revolutionizing Healthcare Through Change37:54 — Targeting Female Leaders in HealthcareDISCLAMER >>>>>> The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

“Very often, doctors try to suppress what they feel or don't even have the vocabulary to describe their emotions,” says Professor Alicja Galazka of the University of Silesia, an observation based on decades of work with physicians to enhance their emotional intelligence and resilience. Galazka, a psychotherapist, psychologist, lecturer and coach, believes this deficit is rooted in part in a lack of instruction in the internal and external psychological dimensions of being a medical provider. “There is not enough space created in medical school for teaching and training students about how to deal with their own stress and all of the skills connected to building relationships with patients,” she tells host Michael Carrese. Those same skills are also critical to working effectively as a member of a care team, which is an increasingly common arrangement in hospitals and clinics. Galazka employs simulations, dramatic role-playing, mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and other methods in her work with an eye on increasing the emotional agility and sensitivity of her trainees and clients. Tune in to this thoughtful episode of Raise the Line to hear Galazka's ideas on how to reshape medical training, why she is a proponent of narrative medicine, and the merits of embedding psychologists on care teams as a resource for both patients and providers.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 6-19, 2025: Dr. Dawn presents the VITAL study evidence showing 2,000 IU daily vitamin D prevents telomere shortening in immune cells, effectively slowing biological aging by three years. Groundbreaking mouse research reveals maternal iron deficiency can alter fetal sex development. When iron levels dropped 60%, the SYR gene controlling male development switched off, causing 6 of 39 XY offspring to develop ovaries instead of testes. Thus, mammalian sex can be influenced by environmental factors just like in amphibians and fish. Dr. Dawn connects this to gender identity questions, advocating supporting puberty blockers based on their 30-year safety record. Dr. Dawn advocates widespread CPR and AED training after describing a successful Buffalo airport rescue. With 350,000 annual out-of-hospital cardiac arrests and 90% fatality rates, immediate AED intervention can triple survival odds. She promotes the Pulsepoint app registering 185,000 AEDs and praises countries like Norway achieving 90% population CPR training through driver's license requirements. Post-Roe v. Wade data shows vasectomies doubled in men aged 19-26 while tubal ligations rose 70%, mostly in abortion-ban states. Dr. Dawn notes the irony that policies intended to increase births prompted widespread voluntary sterilization. Environmental concerns from January 2025 Moss Landing battery fire and LA wildfires highlight toxic contamination from burning lithium, plastics, and building materials. She advocates fire-resistant landscaping and home hardening, noting some fire-resistant homes survived while surroundings burned. British research shows pet ownership provides life satisfaction equivalent to $90,000 annual income boost. Dr. Dawn experiences this firsthand, noting pets provide family-like benefits without complex interpersonal dynamics. Sleep study reveals 15 minutes additional nightly sleep improves cognitive performance in tweens. Children sleeping 7.25 versus 7.10 hours showed better academics and larger brain volumes, though Dr. Dawn questions causation versus correlation. Mayo Clinic identified Interleukin-23 as a reliable cellular senescence biomarker across multiple tissues. Natural compounds like quercetin, fisetin, and luteolin can reduce these aging markers, supporting her dietary supplementation philosophy.

Guest Lisa Goldman Rosas is an authority on public health who says that food insecurity goes deeper than hunger and can lead to chronic diabetes, heart disease, and even anxiety and depression. Rosas champions a concept she calls “nutrition security,” which focuses on food's health value over mere calories. She discusses her work with “Recipe4Health,” an Alameda County-led program that issues produce prescriptions, offers health coaching, and integrates electronic health records to improve diets and well-being. Food is medicine, Rosas tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

Dr. Robert Sullivan, a 49-year-old anesthesiologist in peak physical condition, was featured in the Wall Street Journal for his aerial circus arts just months before getting his COVID vaccine. Within weeks of his second shot, he could barely walk upstairs without gasping for air. Diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension—a condition so rare it affects 1 in a million people and typically kills within 3-7 years—Dr. Sullivan found himself trapped between two devastating realities: his medical colleagues' dismissive silence and his own desperate search for answers. When the scientific method becomes subordinate to pharmaceutical profits and government narratives, medicine dies and propaganda in white coats takes its place. Dr. Sullivan and Dr. McFillin discuss the dangerous psychology of medical compliance and dissect how groupthink has weaponized modern healthcare.

How do you grab the attention of the smartest person in the room and introduce an idea that could fundamentally change their approach to leadership? In this insightful episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, Gina Catalano, President of Central Forza Group and author of The Leadership Wake Up Call, joins Bill Sherman to discuss her pioneering work in developing emotional intelligence (EQ) for surgeon leaders—a skill set largely overlooked in traditional medical training. Gina shares how her journey from managing medical device teams in Fortune 500 healthcare organizations led her to recognize a critical gap: Surgeons possess extraordinary technical skills but often lack training in emotional intelligence. Her unique insight is transforming how surgeons engage with patients, teams, and even mitigate malpractice risks. She explains the compelling data behind EQ's impact, highlighting research correlating higher EQ among surgeons with lower malpractice claims. Gina also details her groundbreaking project with Duke University's general surgery residency, where she's building a curriculum to instill essential EQ skills early in surgical training. Listeners will learn how Gina's personal experiences and keen observations evolved into a compelling speaking and writing career, all centered around equipping elite performers with the "power skills" needed for true leadership success. This episode isn't just about developing better surgeon leaders—it's about creating profound, measurable changes that enhance patient care and team performance. Three Key Takeaways: • Emotional intelligence is critical for elite performance — Especially in high-pressure fields like surgery, EQ impacts malpractice rates, team dynamics, and patient outcomes. • Thought leadership bridges knowledge gaps — Introducing EQ to surgeon leaders requires translating soft skills into evidence-based, practical tools that resonate with data-driven professionals. • Early intervention creates lasting change — Embedding emotional intelligence training into medical residency programs can shape more effective leaders from the start. If this episode got you thinking about the power of emotional intelligence in high-performance environments, you'll want to keep going with our conversation with David Wood: The Effects of Soft Skills in Thought Leadership. Both episodes tackle a common challenge—how to introduce and scale “soft skills” like EQ in expert-driven fields where they're often undervalued. Gina Catalano and David Wood each show that these so-called soft skills are actually mission-critical for leadership, trust-building, and long-term success. Listen now and discover how soft skills can create hard results.
In this episode of Health Talks, we chat with Gorana Micevic, a Physician Assistant at Access Community Health Network in Chciago. Gorana shares her journey from training at SIU School of Medicine to serving both rural and urban communities through family and addiction medicine. She discusses leading a nationally recognized COVID-19 testing program in rural Illinois, completing Rush University's addiction medicine fellowship, and building a patient panel for opioid use disorder (OUD) treatment at federally qualified health centers (FQHCs). Gorana offers encouragement for providers who may feel uncertain about treating OUD, and reminds us that education, empathy, and collaboration are key to making an impact.Throughout the episode, Gorana emphasizes the importance of education both for patients and providers. She reflects on how increasing clinician confidence around initiating OUD treatment could reduce barriers to care, and stresses the need for more training programs to include addiction medicine and integrated behavioral health: “I'm a strong believer in the power of integrated behavioral health. Some of the most meaningful progress I've seen with patients has happened alongside behavioral health consultants—professionals trained in trauma, anxiety, depression, and recovery. It's the combination of medical and emotional care that truly transforms outcomes.”
It's never too early to start an honest conversation with teens about substance use. In this episode of Health Talks, we sit down with Dr. Maria Rahmandar, an attending physician in Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine at Lurie Children's Hospital and the founding medical director of their Substance Use and Prevention Program. Dr. Rahmandar shares her personal and professional journey into adolescent substance use treatment, including how a family tragedy shaped her commitment to this work. We dive into timely and complex issues from the evolving potency of cannabis and the rise of nicotine vapes to the intersection of mental health and substance use among teens. Dr. Rahmandar offers practical insights for providers, emphasizing empathy, harm reduction, and the importance of building trust. She also discusses how social media plays a dual role in both connection and risk, and shares strategies for engaging youth in meaningful, nonjudgmental conversations about their health. Whether you're a provider, caregiver, or advocate, this episode is a powerful guide to supporting young people with compassion and clarity.As Dr. Rahmandar reminds us: “It is really important to celebrate those successes, live in the moment, and be proud of people for the hard work they've done.”

This week, Aebhric O'Kelly speaks with Jason Jarvis, a former Special Forces medic and current PhD student, about his experiences in military medicine, the evolution of prolonged field care, and the development of the 'SHEEP VOMIT' mnemonic for patient care in austere environments. They discuss the importance of nursing care, the practical applications of medical knowledge in the field, and the challenges medical practitioners face in remote settings. This conversation delves into critical aspects of patient care, particularly in prolonged field care settings. It emphasises the importance of managing pressure points, understanding vital signs, monitoring core temperature, maintaining oral hygiene, preventing DVT, and ensuring proper input and output monitoring. The discussion also highlights the significance of turning, coughing, and deep breathing for patient recovery, culminating in the legacy of the 'sheep vomit' concept in medical training.TakeawaysJason Jarvis has a master's in infectious disease and is pursuing a PhD.Military experiences shaped his interest in tropical medicine.Prolonged field care is a systematic approach to patient care in remote settings.The 'SHEEP VOMIT' mnemonic was developed to aid in prolonged field care.Skin protection is crucial in austere environments.Hypothermia prevention is a key focus in field care.Patient mobility and exercises are essential for recovery.Checklists help ensure comprehensive patient care.The evolution of medical mnemonics reflects advancements in field medicine.

Medical education is known for its demanding structure, but the toll it takes on students and physicians is rarely addressed with the same intensity. Nearly 30% of medical students experience depression, and rates of suicidal ideation are alarmingly high—three times greater than their same-age peers. Residents and attending physicians face similar challenges, often without access to the care and support they need. Dr. Jenny Wei and third-year medical student Sanila Math join the conversation with Austen to explore the culture of rigidity in medicine—from its historical roots to its present-day consequences—across every stage of training. Together, they reflect on the weight of burnout and the importance of questioning systems that no longer serve doctors' well-being.
