In this episode of Wellness at the Speed of Light, Dr. Stefano Sinicropi speaks with Dr. Abilash Haridas about burnout, wellbeing, and redefining success at the highest levels of medicine. Dr. Haridas is a double board-certified pediatric and cerebrovascular neurosurgeon, CEO of Astra Neurosurgical Institute, and President of the Society for Brain Mapping & Therapeutics. With thousands of complex brain and spine surgeries behind him, his professional achievements are extraordinary. In this conversation, however, the focus shifts from credentials to the personal cost of sustained performance and the overlooked realities of physician wellbeing. The episode explores what years of caring for elderly patients taught Dr. Haridas about longevity and quality of life, why burnout should be understood as a system-wide issue rather than an individual failure, and how success can quietly outpace health. He reflects on the emotional weight carried by neurosurgeons, the pressure to remain relentless, and the moment he realized that professional accomplishment without presence and fulfillment was not sustainable. Listeners will hear a thoughtful discussion on balance, legacy, and what it means to live well while continuing to lead, operate, and innovate. This episode is especially relevant for healthcare professionals, leaders, and high-achievers navigating burnout, purpose, and long-term wellbeing. It offers perspective on choosing happiness, redefining success, and staying human in demanding careers.

In this episode of Clinical Research Coach, host Leanne Woehlke sits down with Dr. Rohan Lall for a candid, thought-provoking conversation on what it truly takes to modernize clinical research—without losing sight of patients, providers, or purpose.Dr. Lall brings a rare dual perspective as a practicing physician and clinical research leader, offering firsthand insight into the structural, cultural, and operational challenges that slow progress across trials today. Together, Leanne and Dr. Lall explore how clinical research must evolve to better reflect real-world care, rebuild trust with patients, and support sites and investigators who are stretched thin.In this episode, you'll hear about:Why many clinical trials still feel disconnected from everyday clinical care—and how to close that gapThe growing tension between protocol complexity and patient participationWhat physicians actually need to stay engaged in research long-termHow trust, communication, and operational empathy impact enrollment and retentionWhere technology helps—and where human connection remains irreplaceableDr. Lall's vision for a more sustainable, clinician-friendly, patient-ready research ecosystemThis conversation is a must-listen for sponsors, CROs, sites, and innovators who believe the future of clinical research depends not just on better technology, but on better alignment between medicine, operations, and the lived experience of patients.Rohan Lall, MD M Health FarviewUniversity of Minnesota Medical Center  Spine Surgery / Neurosurgery/ Chief Medical Officer SynerFuse BIO:Dr Rohan R. Lall is a neurosurgeon in Edina, Minnesota and is affiliated withmultiple hospitals in the area, including M Health FairviewUniversity of Minnesota Medical Center and M Health FairviewSouthdale Hospital. He received his medical degree from University of Chicago Division of the Biological Sciences The Pritzker School of Medicine. He has expertise in treating spinalfusion, spinal stenosis and spondylosis, among other conditions  Dr Lall is a former investigator of the SynerFuse Proof of Concept trial and pioneered the e-TLIF procedure He performed the world's firstsolo SynerFuse e-TLIF procedure as well as the first 2-level procedure. SynerFuse®e-TLIF™ procedure, a ULE™ Therapy (Ultra Low Energy), is used to addresschronic low back and leg pain for spinal fusion patients. Dr Lall specializes in robotic and minimally invasive surgery, complex spinal surgery, brain for brain and spinal tumors and skullbase surgery/ pituitary tumor surgery.  He has been a leader in robotic spinal surgery and actively involved in the development of new technologies in spine surgery. The Innovative procedure integrates conventional spinal surgery techniques with targeted nerve stimulation to address chronic back pain at its source. These nerve stimulators fundamentallyalter the nerve's ability to transmit pain signals to the brain. The innovative implant allows patients to control nerve stimulation via smartphone, with early trial participants reporting significant pain reduction and improved quality of life without opioid dependence.

Shelli-Ann McKenzie. Purpose of the Interview The interview focuses on advocating for healthcare professionals, addressing the challenges they face, and introducing Shelli-Ann McKenzie’s nonprofit organization, Help for Healthcare Professionals (HCPP). The goal is to highlight burnout, financial struggles, and systemic issues in healthcare while promoting programs that support mental wellness, financial literacy, and career development. Key Takeaways Healthcare Workforce Challenges Nurses and healthcare professionals face high stress, burnout, and long hours, leading to workforce shortages. Many professionals struggle financially—24% live in poverty. Lack of professors in nursing schools limits the number of students entering the profession. Understanding Nursing Roles Nursing includes multiple levels: Registered Nurse (RN): Associate or bachelor’s degree. Advanced Practice Nurses: Master’s level (e.g., Nurse Practitioner, Nurse Educator). Doctorate Level: Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) or PhD. Nurse practitioners often function as an extension of physicians, providing quality care. Respect and Recognition Nurses provide more direct care than any other health profession but often lack recognition. Advocacy is key to ensuring nurses can practice at the highest level and improve access to care. Why HCPP Was Founded Born out of COVID-19 crisis and Shelli-Ann’s personal experience with burnout. Mission: Provide mental health referrals, financial assistance (gift cards, gas), and professional development. Programs include: Financial literacy workshops Entrepreneurship training for healthcare professionals Scholarships and internships for aspiring professionals Youth Med Program Targets ages 13–20 to build a healthcare workforce pipeline. Offers hands-on training, CPR certification, exposure to neurosurgeons, and mentorship. Tuition-free and designed to scale nationally. Funding and Community Support HCPP is a nurse-owned nonprofit, funded by federal grants and donations. Annual event: Night of Grand and Gratitude—a charity awards dinner to raise funds for programs. Notable Quotes “No one else was coming to save us—so I created HCPP.” “24% of healthcare professionals live in poverty.” “If we don’t have enough professors, we cap nursing students—it’s cyclical.” “The most rewarding part of nursing is showing up for people in their most vulnerable moments.” “Every dollar we raise fuels education programs like Youth Med—strategic investment in the future of healthcare.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Faith in Healthcare host, Dr. Mike Chupp, is joined by Dr. Michael Egnor, a neurosurgeon, professor, and residency program director at Stony Brook University, for an incredible conversation on neuroscience, philosophy, and Christian faith. Drawing from decades of clinical experience and his own journey from atheism and materialism to faith in Christ, Dr. Egnor explores whether the human mind can be fully explained by the brain alone. Sharing real-world evidence from brain surgeries, clinical experiments, neurological cases, and patients' near-death experiences – and insights from his book The Immortal Mind – this episode challenges reductionist views of consciousness and invites listeners to consider what it truly means to care for patients as whole persons, created with body and soul by our Creator.

Today we are discussion advancements in treatment of vascular disease of the brain. Name some of these conditions and how they present themselves: Aneurysms: can be incidentally found or present with headache or subarachnoid hemorrhage; AVM's and AVF's usually present with seizures, hemorrhages, or focal deficits.

In this episode of ScaleUp Radio Shorts, Kevin Brent and Granger Forson unpack the remarkable ScaleUp journey of Dr. Mark Kotter, a neurosurgeon, stem cell biologist, and founder of Bit Bio, a deep-tech biotech company that's raised over $200 million and scaled to 200+ people. It's a story that starts with clinical frustration and leads to a cutting-edge company using AI to literally reprogram cells. But beyond the science lies a business story that any entrepreneur can learn from, full of lessons on leadership, values, team alignment, and the bumpy road of scale.  

“Neuroscientists who stand up and say ‘we have souls' are few and far between,” says pediatric neurosurgeon Dr. Michael Egnor.“But when you look carefully at the neuroscience—the best neuroscience over the past century—it clearly points to the existence of the soul and to the existence of aspects of our mind that don't come from the brain.”Egnor himself started off as a materialist and atheist. But 40 years and more than 7,000 brain surgeries later, he concluded that reason and free will do not reside in the brain. In this episode, he reveals what he's found.“Neuroscience is just fundamentally wrong in a lot of ways … because of the materialist bias in neuroscience. We can't get away from this machine analogy, [but] we're not machines, and we don't work like machines work. And there's overwhelming evidence in neuroscience for the existence of a soul,” he says.Dr. Egnor is a professor of neurosurgery and pediatrics at Stony Brook University, a senior fellow at the Discovery Institute, and the co-author of the book “The Immortal Mind: A Neurosurgeon's Case for the Existence of the Soul.”Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Dr. Daniel Kelly joins Dr. Stephen Sideroff this week on the Quantum Leadership Podcast. In this powerful episode of the Quantum Leadership Podcast, Dr. Stephen Sideroff sits down with Dr. Dan Kelly, one of the nation's leading neurosurgeons and co-founder and director of the Pacific Neuroscience Institute, for an illuminating look at the inner work, vision, and steady courage behind his remarkable leadership journey.From leaving a secure tenured role at UCLA to create an entirely new model of neuroscience care, to performing high-stakes brain tumor surgeries where a millimeter can change a life, Dan shares what it truly takes to lead with clarity, presence, and heart. He reveals how risk-taking, disciplined innovation, and multidisciplinary collaboration helped him grow PNI from a small three-person nucleus into a nationally recognized institute with more than a dozen centers of excellence.Dan also opens up about the personal side of leadership: coping with emotionally heavy diagnoses, maintaining balance through meditation and exercise, fostering trust in the operating room, and navigating the enormous pressures of a healthcare system while protecting what matters most: patient outcomes, team wellbeing, and integrity.His story offers profound lessons for leaders facing uncertainty, complexity, or the need to build something groundbreaking from the ground up.

The seasons have changed, and fall is coming to an end, which means the holidays are here! While Nate may not be the biggest fan of Thanksgiving food, he and Chelsea take some time to reflect on life and money lessons they are thankful to have learned, often around a dinner table. Nate Reineke and Chelsea Jones break down some of the valuable lessons they learned when they were young, like “don't spend money you don't have yet,” and Chelsea's favorite, “pay yourself first.” We also discuss your colleagues' questions. A Neurosurgeon in New York just got a bonus payment and has a large lump sum to invest. Should they do a one-time deposit to their taxable account or dollar cost average? A Cardiologist in Oregon says, “We earn $700k/year and we watch what we spend to some extent, yet at the end of the month, we are out of money. What do you think the problem is?” The wife of a retired General Surgeon in Oregon asks, “My husband is on Medicare, but I am not, and my insurance covers our youngest son. Should I have an HSA?” A Dermatologist in Texas says, ”My in-laws are selling their home and we are thinking about buying it and turning it into a rental property. What do you think?” However you celebrate the upcoming holiday season, we at Physician Family Financial Advisors are thankful for you! Are you ready to turn worries about taxes and investing into all the money you need for college and retirement? It's time to make a plan and get on track.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 040: Bitcoin Privacy Under Attack – Neurosurgeon Exposes Government Conspiracy, Transhumanist Agenda & Economic Reset | Dr. Jack KruseNeurosurgeon Dr. Jack Kruse drops bombshells: Bitcoin privacy under siege from government conspiracy and transhumanist agendas, with the economic reset already underway via CBDCs and MK Ultra mind control tactics. He warns 50% of Bitcoiners have been fooled by cozying up to politicians like Trump (a "false flag"), Michael Saylor's propaganda, and David Bailey's missteps—pushing Bitcoin toward sloppy centralization. From Meyer Lansky's 1969 fiat debasement playbook to Epstein-funded cypherpunks controlling thoughts via Google algorithms, Kruse connects decades of history showing Zionists, Fabians, and bankers reclaiming power. But decentralized health is the key weapon: Blue light, EMFs, and Big Pharma destroy your time (the true asset) on purpose—stealing sovereignty without touching your stack. Learn why toxic maxi Bitcoiners are waking up, how to build citadels in oases like El Salvador, and simple fixes like sunrise exposure to reclaim freedom. This isn't hype—it's the privacy war Bitcoiners must win before extinction events hit Canada, the US, and more. Wake up, get savage, and fight back.Chapters:00:00:00 Teaser – Attack Exposed00:02:02 Geopolitical Threats00:04:07 COVID Reset00:07:44 Citadels & Privacy00:13:29 Borderless Future00:18:14 Extinction Risks00:20:25 Attack Vectors00:23:51 Historical Control00:27:06 Feudalism Agenda00:31:57 CBDCs History00:35:21 Mind Control00:37:48 War Begins00:39:31 False Flags00:41:24 Health-Wealth & Compliance00:47:13 EMFs & DARPA Weapons00:59:10 Revolution, Fabian & Zionist Wars01:10:03 AI Risks01:17:51 Disagreement & Risks01:19:30 Game Theory & Conspiracies01:26:02 Mindset & ResourcesAbout Dr. Jack Kruse:Neurosurgeon and decentralized medicine pioneerX: @DrJackKrusePatreon: patreon.com/DrJackKruseSite: jackkruse.com (Forum for decentralized medicine resources)Check out previous Episodes:Bitcoin-Powered Healthcare w Andy Schoonover: https://youtu.be/f940kVrPwNw

The fascinating intersections of circadian biology, quantum health, and women's wellness really come alive as I sit down with Neurosurgeon-turned-Quantum-Biologist Dr. Jack Kruse. You'll hear how simple things, like the light you see first thing in the morning, quietly shape your hormones, energy, and even how you age. Dr. Jack's decades of surgical and biophysical knowledge make these concepts surprisingly practical for everyday health. By the end, you may find yourself rethinking your daily routines in the best way.   Together, we get into why AM sunlight can make such a big difference for women going through hormonal changes, especially around menopause. Dr. Jack breaks down big ideas like heteroplasmy in simple, eye-opening terms and shows how it plays into skin health, longevity, and mitochondrial function. You'll also hear why red light deserves a place in your wellness routine, and how blue light and non-native EMFs might be draining more than just your battery.   If you've ever struggled with weight changes, low energy, or hormonal shifts, you'll appreciate Dr. Jack's explanation of the leptin-melanocortin pathway and what it means for women at every age. His own 150-pound weight-loss story adds real heart to the science and shows how much can change when your environment starts working for you instead of against you.

Neurosurgeon Jeffrey Hatef, Jr. discusses his article "Guilty until proven innocent? My experience with a state medical board." In this episode, Jeffrey shares the shocking story of how his medical license was summarily suspended without a hearing and how incomplete records, flawed expert testimony, and questionable legal tactics created a process stacked against him. He recounts how independent reviews from spine surgeons and letters of support from nearly sixty physicians affirmed his standard of care, yet the board pursued the case with relentless determination. Jeffrey emphasizes the dangers of a system that prioritizes winning over fairness, the impact on patient autonomy, and the need for transparency and accountability in medical board proceedings. Listeners gain an inside look into the high stakes of licensure defense and the importance of due process for physicians. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

Back pain is one of the most common health issues worldwide yet it's still surrounded by confusion, fear, and myths. In this episode, I sit down with Anthony Ghosh, Consultant Spinal Neurosurgeon, educator and founder of Spine MDT Clinic to separate fact from fiction and give you a practical toolkit for a healthier spine.What I love about Anthony's approach is that he created SpineMDT, a modern, multidisciplinary spine care service, that works alongside physiotherapists, osteopaths and chiropractitioners to deliver holistic care to his patients, many of whom he believes would NOT benefit from spinal surgery.We cover:

Although it may seem like science is completely separate from faith, they both play a very important role in our understanding. They are not opposed and can exist together as both strive to find the truth. It's just a matter of looking at the topic from different angles, according to our guest today, Dr. Gary Simonds, a retired neurosurgeon who's treated tens of thousands of patients. Today he talks about burnout in the healthcare system, especially during and after Covid. He stresses the importance of keeping a positive attitude and focusing on resilience. Dr. Simonds suggests practicing gratitude and asks us to think of 3 things we are grateful for throughout the day. He explains how our brains actually have a different chemical reaction when looking for the positive. He suggests considering uplifting material or realizing something as simple as a smile. Sometimes we need to force ourselves to look for the positive. As a neurosurgeon, doctors typically look for the worst-case scenario, so they can plan in advance if something goes wrong. He talks about consciously directing thoughts toward possibilities and solutions.  Dr. Simonds, as an expert neurosurgeon, also discusses how to deliver difficult news, while managing expectations.  He's had to do it so many times, with many patients and families. He explains how it's all about trust -- a delicate walk between honesty and compassion with empathy.  An expert on burnout and trauma, Dr. Simonds is the Founding Chief of Neurosurgery at the Carilion Clinic, Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine (retired) and the author of three non-fiction books. “Death's Pale Flag” is his first novel and his latest book. This is Part 1 of the interview. Info: GaryRSimonds.com.  

Spine surgery sits at the crossroads of need, nuance, and noise—and few people explain that terrain better than Dr. Rod Oskouian, a high-volume neurosurgeon who has led a complex spine program and also navigated care as a patient.  Dr. Oskouian and Healthcare Bridge host, Nate Kaufman pull back the curtain on how consolidation, denials, and a flood of administrative demands reshape daily practice, why “low value” labels miss the mark, and what truly predicts safer outcomes when your back—or your future mobility—is on the line.The conversation starts with the evolution of neurosurgery from community coverage to regional referral, as smaller practices disappear and tertiary centers take on the hardest cases across multiple states. From the OR to the boardroom, Dr. Oskouian unpacks how EMRs, siloed decision-making, and repeated reorganizations increase friction (SEE NATE'S ARTICLE Nathan Kaufman: How silos undermine U.S. healthcare | HFMA). He makes a bold case for a mindset shift: treat physicians as the primary customers of health systems so they have the tools, staffing, and data to deliver better patient care. That shift informs smarter choices about enterprise tech, integrated AI, documentation, imaging, and revenue workflows that either free clinicians to practice medicine—or bury them in clicks and appeals.Kaufman and Dr. Oskouian into the data debate around spine surgery and “low value care,” exploring how Medicare billing data, coding incentives, and risk profiles can warp conclusions. He argues for outcomes that blend patient-reported measures with wearable-driven biometrics—steps, mobility, vitals, adherence—paired with honest risk adjustment for complex cases. For patients trying to choose a surgeon, they offer a pragmatic playbook: prioritize volume, fellowship-trained teams, multidisciplinary pathways, and centers that live and breathe your specific procedure. And they get personal as Dr. Oskouian recounts a severe ski accident, the authorization gauntlet he faced despite insider knowledge, and the hard lesson that navigating networks can matter as much as medical expertise.If you care about healthcare strategy, spine outcomes, physician leadership, or how to advocate for yourself when it counts, this conversation delivers grounded insight you can use.

This is one of the most memorable conversations I have had on the podcast. With a heavy heart today, I am re-releasing his episode in honor of Dr. James Doty on neuroscience, manifestation, and the power of focusing your mind and heart on what you know is possible in your life.Dr. Doty passed away on July 16, 2025, from medical complications following surgery. This episode was recorded before his death and remains one of our most beloved conversations. He was truly an incredible human being who believed deeply in the power of the human spirit, mind, and soul.Dr. Doty was a highly sought-after speaker and podcast guest, and he didn't have to say yes to coming on the Cracking Open podcast. But he told me that among the 300 emails he received the day he got my request, he felt it was a "yes" to crack open—and I will forever be grateful.Dr. James Doty was a:World-renowned Stanford neurosurgeon and neuroscientist, philanthropist, and leading researcher in the science of compassionFormer CEO of Accuray (NASDAQ: ARAY), where he helped develop CyberKnife technology, saving countless lives worldwideFounder of the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education (CCARE) at Stanford University School of Medicine, where His Holiness the Dalai Lama is the founding benefactorNew York Times and international bestselling author of Into the Magic Shop and his most recent book, Mind Magic: The Neuroscience of Manifestation, which became a top-selling book on Amazon in multiple categoriesIn this episode, Dr. Doty shares his journey from growing up in a tumultuous home to discovering the power of self-agency and the science of manifestation. He opens up about his successes and failures, his struggles with choosing to live life from his ego or his heart, and how much he appreciates being called out on his shortcomings. Ultimately, he discovered that "possessions, position, and power have nothing to do with wisdom, insight, or self-awareness."Dr. Doty and I dive into the science of manifestation and explore actionable steps you can take to manifest the life of your dreams. We explore how therapy can yield incredible results when the client is willing to confront life's challenges and the shadow side of their personality. When we can illuminate the darker, often hidden parts of ourselves, we can become more integrated and whole as individuals.Whether you have heard this episode before or it's your first time, I invite you to listen to Dr. Doty with an open heart and carry his wisdom forward.To honor Dr. Doty's legacy and life, you can visit his memorial page here: https://everloved.com/life-of/james-doty/

Neurosurgeons at UCSF, led by Drs. Edward Chang and Anthony Lee, present a “contactless” microvascular decompression (MVD) approach for trigeminal neuralgia using a pericranium sling. This technique repositions the offending blood vessel with the patient's own pericranial tissue, avoiding synthetic materials like Teflon. By eliminating foreign implants, it reduces risks of inflammation, granuloma formation, persistent nerve compression, and implant movement. These doctors report that transposition techniques using either pericranium or Teflon slings may provide more durable pain relief than interposition methods. However, all MVD approaches studied significantly reduced pain for patients with this debilitating condition, offering safer and potentially longer-lasting outcomes.

Is there scientific proof of the soul? Joining Frank in this eye-opening podcast episode is Dr. Michael Egnor, a practicing neurosurgeon, neuroscientist, and Professor of Neurosurgery at Stony Brook University. In his new book, 'The Immortal Mind: A Neurosurgeon's Case for the Existence of the Soul', co-authored with Denise O'Leary, Dr. Egnor draws from over 7,000 brain surgeries and decades of experience to challenge the popular materialist view of the human person.
