Most clinics don't fail because they're bad at treatment—they stall because their tools don't talk. EMR here. Scheduler there. Email somewhere else. A texting app. A CRM you meant to set up “one day.” In the gaps between them? Patients and leads fall through. This week's episode gives you a simple, durable way to fix it—without another fancy platform, without months of setup, and without you doing more. What You're Getting Today The hidden trap: Platform sprawl → missed follow-ups → lost revenue The fix: A single Google Sheet + one “quarterback” to run it How to scale it: SOPs your whole team can follow Your next step: Grab the free Sheet + video walkthrough that can completely transform your follow-up process—and the impact you have with your practice. The Lead Management and Patient Follow-up Tracking Sheet and Training is the same tool I use in my own clinic.

Elizabeth Jeffords, CEO and President of Iolyx Therapeutics, discusses dry eye disease and its connection to autoimmune conditions. The company's novel therapeutic topical immune modulator is designed to treat the root inflammation in the eye, which systemic drugs often fail to reach due to the blood-retina barrier. Patients with dry eye disease often have multiple comorbidities and are excluded from clinical trials, making this research even more significant in finding treatments for a growing population. Elizabeth explains, "Some people have physical dry eye, i.e., they have a dysfunction in their meibomian glands, and they can't make enough tears or those tears aren't the right composition. But more than half of the patients with dry eye have an underlying autoimmune disease. And they might know that, and they might not. So, patients with either Sjogren's disease or any of the thyroid conditions, patients with rheumatoid arthritis, MS, connective tissue dysfunction, most of those patients have some ocular comorbidities, and specifically, dry eye is probably one of the biggest ones." "Sometimes we treat the body, and we can treat autoimmune diseases successfully, but you don't really get most drugs into the eye. And so those alarm bells are still going off in the eye. And unfortunately, these patients with autoimmune disease tend to have more severe disease. They respond differently to the drugs that are out there today and probably most troublesome to us, and why Iolyx is really targeted these patients is that they get excluded from most of trials because they're just more difficult to treat, but they're also more difficult to treat because they have systemic medications that they're on, and most of those drugs get excluded." #IolyxTherapeutics #DryEyeDisease #Ophthalmology #AutoimmuneDisease #EyeCare #ImmunoOphthalmology #ClinicalTrials Iolyx.com Download the transcript here

Osteosarcoma Webinar Series: Yanding Zhao, PhD to discuss how Distinct patterns of chromosomal instability fuel osteosarcoma progression and influence patient outcomes.Osteosarcoma (OS) is notable for extreme chromosomal instability (CIN) and molecular heterogeneity, which have hindered therapeutic progress. To address this, the lab performed longitudinal and multi-modal profiling of 91 tumors from 71 pediatric patients, integrating whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing with ATAC-seq and Hi-C in matched cell lines. Their analyses revealed that key driver mutations, including TP53, are fixed early and persist through progression. Over 80% of tumors exhibited complex structural alterations—such as chromothripsis, kataegis, loss of heterozygosity, and ecDNA amplification—with MYC enhancer hijacking linked to chemoresistance. They identified a high-risk evolutionary trajectory marked by homologous recombination deficiency (HRD)-like signatures in the absence of BRCA mutations. These tumors showed focal duplications at fragile sites, early whole-genome doubling, high TP53 mutation burden, and sensitivity to PARP inhibition—highlighting a potential therapeutic vulnerability. Together, these findings define a replication stress–driven model of OS evolution, shaped by early chromosomal remodeling and ecDNA-mediated oncogene activation, with implications for biomarker development and precision treatment strategies.Dr. Yanding Zhao is a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University in the lab of Dr. Christina Curtis. He earned his PhD in Genetics from Dartmouth College, where he began developing computational tools to understand how genome instability disrupts gene regulation in cancer. At Stanford, his research focuses on pediatric osteosarcoma. By combining genome sequencing, 3D chromatin mapping, and spatial transcriptomics, he studies how tumors evolve, resist treatment, and evade the immune system. Dr. Zhao works closely with clinicians and scientists to help turn these discoveries into potential new therapies. He is honored to be part of the MIB Agents community and looks forward to sharing his work in a way that resonates with patients, families, and advocates.

Prognosis Over Price: A Simple Hack to Boost Sales Conversions In this episode, Doc Danny Matta unpacks one of the most common struggles in cash-based PT: helping staff (and owners) get comfortable with sales. Drawing from years of coaching, Danny shares a simple “prognosis-first” approach that removes the stress around money and makes closing plans of care natural and effective. Episode Summary The sales hurdle: Many clinicians (especially new grads) struggle with money conversations. Danny's early mistakes: Starting at $175/session, no packages, offering weak 3-visit plans. The prognosis hack: Forget cost—present what's clinically needed based on diagnosis and desired outcome. Why it works: Patients trust clarity, honesty, and confidence more than discounts or options. Staff training tip: Anchor staff to prognosis, then be quiet—let the patient decide. Key Takeaways Prognosis > Price: Tie your recommendations to outcomes, not dollar signs. Confidence closes: Patients sense discomfort; clear communication builds trust. Education wins: Patients invest when they understand timeframes, healing, and next steps. Less talking, more listening: Present the plan, then pause—don't talk them out of it. Pro Tips You Can Use Today Have staff present plans in terms of visits + timeline, not dollars. Use a simple handout with care plan options—let patients point to their choice. Practice being silent after presenting prognosis; resist filling the gap. Role-play money conversations until staff are comfortable staying clinical. Notable Quotes “Forget about the plan of care cost. Focus completely on the prognosis.” “It's not hard to sell when you're clear, confident, and opposite of the traditional medical experience.” “Patients invest when they understand exactly what it takes to solve their problem long-term.” Action Items Re-train staff to frame care plans around prognosis, not price. Create one-page prognosis templates for common injuries. Practice silence—say what's needed, then stop talking. Track conversion rates before and after implementing this hack.

Dr. Audrey Kershaw returns to chat with Dr. Linda Bluestein and demystify wisdom tooth extraction, appliances for TMJ disorder, and everyday oral health habits for people with EDS/HSD. We cover when third molars should be removed (and when they shouldn't), why local anesthetic can fail in some patients, how to approach dental procedures when CCI (craniocervical instability) is a concern, and what truly drives gum disease vs “EDS-specific” issues. We also address periodontal EDS (a rare subtype), toothpaste choices (fluoride vs hydroxyapatite vs chelators), and the surprisingly powerful habit of “spit, don't rinse.” Stay to the end for practical Hypermobility Hacks you can implement tonight. Takeaways Is wisdom teeth surgery happening too often… or dangerously too late? What if the biggest risk during oral surgery isn't the tooth—but how your neck is positioned? Why do some people with EDS feel every cut and drill—even after “getting numb”? Could one cheap hack—“spit, don't rinse”—protect your teeth better than $30 toothpaste? Are sharks hiding the secret to stronger enamel in your bathroom cabinet? Find the episode transcript here.

In today's episode, Dr. Killeen reminds us that while clinical excellence is essential, patients rarely notice the technical details of dentistry. What they do notice is how your office feels—the friendliness of the team, the clarity of billing, the comfort of the environment, and the way they're treated as people. Dr. Killeen shares how focusing on these “non-dental” details creates the kind of experience that patients remember and talk about.To learn more about Dr. Killeen & his new book The Shift, his upcoming 2-day workshop in Lincoln, NE, or to connect with him, check out www.AddisonKilleen.com.

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ interviews Dr. Paola Ballester, CEO and Co-founder of EasyPA, about the broken state of prior authorizations in healthcare. Dr. Ballester shares her journey from pediatrician to tech founder, the real-world impact of administrative burdens on patients and clinicians, and how her AI-driven platform is streamlining processes to put patient care back at the center. Key Takeaways: The Real Cost of Prior Authorizations [2:05] – Administrative hurdles in healthcare lead to denied claims, lost revenue, and wasted time, forcing clinicians to choose between paperwork and patient care. Empathy Drives Disruption [4:35] – Dr. Ballester’s deep empathy for patients and providers inspired her to create a solution that addresses the root frustrations in the system. AI as a Force for Good [27:05] – EasyPA’s AI platform modernizes prior authorizations, making them 10x faster and giving clinicians more time with patients, not paperwork. Systemic Change is Possible [36:45] – With new technology, regulatory mandates, and a focus on patient-centered care, the healthcare system can move beyond outdated, inefficient processes. Quote of the Show [19:40]:"The assumption that physicians need to prove on a per case basis that their intent is anything other than to provide direct patient care based on evidence-based standards is wild." - Paola Ballester Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

Dr. Audrey Kershaw returns to chat with Dr. Linda Bluestein and demystify wisdom tooth extraction, appliances for TMJ disorder, and everyday oral health habits for people with EDS/HSD. We cover when third molars should be removed (and when they shouldn't), why local anesthetic can fail in some patients, how to approach dental procedures when CCI (craniocervical instability) is a concern, and what truly drives gum disease vs “EDS-specific” issues. We also address periodontal EDS (a rare subtype), toothpaste choices (fluoride vs hydroxyapatite vs chelators), and the surprisingly powerful habit of “spit, don't rinse.” Stay to the end for practical Hypermobility Hacks you can implement tonight. Takeaways Is wisdom teeth surgery happening too often… or dangerously too late? What if the biggest risk during oral surgery isn't the tooth—but how your neck is positioned? Why do some people with EDS feel every cut and drill—even after “getting numb”? Could one cheap hack—“spit, don't rinse”—protect your teeth better than $30 toothpaste? Are sharks hiding the secret to stronger enamel in your bathroom cabinet? Find the episode transcript here.

In this episode, we cover: How to embrace situations as they come without spiraling when plans change The power of mindfulness and accepting impermanence in difficult times Ways to stay flexible, cultivate gratitude, and detach from rigid outcomes Why humor, lightheartedness, and community support matter in tough moments Practical steps for prioritizing self-care, limiting overthinking, and trusting the journey Would you like to learn more about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.

What happens when you stop chasing returns and start investing in purpose?Ron Diamond, Founder and Chairman of Diamond Wealth, believes the future of finance isn't just about building wealth—it's about what that wealth can do. As a trusted advisor to over 100 family offices ranging from $250 million to $30 billion, Ron has spent more than two decades helping ultra-wealthy families align their capital with causes that matter.In this episode, Ron shares how the collapse of Drexel Burnham shaped his perspective on loyalty, legacy, and leadership—and why “patient capital” is poised to disrupt the short-termism of private equity. We explore how purpose-driven investing is solving real-world challenges, from cancer to climate, and what it takes to build sustainable family office infrastructure in an era of unprecedented generational wealth transfer.And the timing couldn't be more relevant: family offices are no longer niche players. The number of single-family offices has surged 31% since 2019, with projections reaching over 10,700 globally by 2030. As trillions of dollars transition to the next generation, Ron offers a front-row seat to the values, strategies, and systems needed to steward that wealth wisely.Ron is also the Founder, Host, and CEO of Family Office World Media, and helped establish the Family Office Program for TIGER 21, where he chairs a national peer group. He lectures at Oxford, Stanford, Harvard, and the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, and was recently appointed Editor-in-Chief of The National Law Review's first Family Office newsletter. A LinkedIn Top Voice, TEDx speaker, and former hedge fund founder, Ron began his career on Wall Street at Bear Stearns and Drexel Burnham.Key TakeawaysPeople Over Companies: Ron's experience during Drexel's collapse taught him that relationships—not institutions—are what endure.Patient Capital Is a Game-Changer: Family offices can think in decades, not quarters, offering strategic advantage over traditional funds.Purpose Before Profit: Legacy and social impact must anchor investment decisions.Professionalization Is Essential: Governance, infrastructure, and talent are what turn capital into capability.The Ego Barrier: Great wealth doesn't guarantee great management—humility is crucial for longevity.Five Core Principles from Ron Diamond1. Guiding North Star: Profit with PurposeAnchor investments in something bigger than financial return—personal mission, legacy, or societal impact. → Tip: Define your North Star early and align capital accordingly.2. Trust & Relationships FirstBack character over credentials. Trust and personal integrity build more resilient partnerships than models or metrics. → Tip: Focus on people, not pitch decks.3. Patient, Long-Term CapitalThink in decades, not exit cycles. Family offices can outperform by holding steady and avoiding short-termism. → Tip: Let compounding do the heavy lifting.4. Professionalizing Family OfficesFamily offices must evolve beyond legacy systems—invest in governance, talent, and infrastructure like any top-tier fund. → Tip: Treat talent as a profit center, not a cost.5. Entrepreneurial PhilanthropyDeploy strategic, venture-style capital into social challenges. Purpose and profit can—and should—coexist. → Tip: Apply the same rigor to social impact as you do to your investments.Episode Highlights00:00 – Episode...
