Podcasts about physicians

Greg Jenner is joined in the sixteenth century by Dr Alanna Skuse and comedian Ria Lina to learn all about medicine and medical professionals in Tudor and Stuart England. In Renaissance-era England, medicine was still based on the theory of the four humours, passed down from ancient Greek and Roman physicians like Hippocrates and Galen. But from the reign of Henry VIII, there were signs of change. The invention of the printing press led to an explosion in medical and anatomical books, and the circulation of ideas from across Europe. The College of Physicians was founded in 1518, and the Company of Barber-Surgeons in 1543. Medicine became a real business, with a range of specialists, professional bodies overseeing different kinds of healthcare, and an explosion of medical providers advertising their services to the general public. This episode explores the landscape of healthcare in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England, looking at everyone from physicians, surgeons and apothecaries to domestic healers and midwives, and even taking in quacks and frauds. Along the way, it examines the sensible social distancing measures taken during the Great Plague, the cures both sensible and dangerous offered for all kinds of diseases, and the cutting-edge experiments men like William Harvey and Christopher Wren were carrying out on the circulation of the blood. If you're a fan of the history of everyday life in Tudor England, petty professional rivalries, and the whacky wellness trends of the past, you'll love our episode on medicine in Renaissance England. If you want more from Ria Lina, listen to our episodes on pirate queen Zheng Yi Sao and medieval traveller Marco Polo. And for more on the history of health and wellness, check out our episodes on Ancient Medicine, Renaissance Beauty and the Kellogg Brothers. You're Dead To Me is the comedy podcast that takes history seriously. Every episode, Greg Jenner brings together the best names in history and comedy to learn and laugh about the past.

Physician, healthcare entrepreneur, and founder Dr. Vivek Aranki joins me to unpack why most real success is built through failure—and why the willingness to iterate beats chasing innovation for its own sake.Most business conversations treat failure as something to avoid, minimize, or hide. This episode reframes it as a required feedback loop. Vivek and I explore how meaningful progress—especially in regulated, high-stakes industries—comes from repeated trial, error, and disciplined correction.Vivek shares his transition from practicing physician to building one of Australia's largest non-corporate cosmetic medicine groups, now spanning 20 clinics nationwide and expanding through franchising. We examine how affordability, quality, and safety are often positioned as trade-offs—and how those assumptions break down when systems are designed intentionally.The conversation moves into franchising ethics, brand trust, and why extraction-based models collapse over time. Vivek explains why their organization prioritizes long-term brand credibility over franchise fees, why lead generation must sit centrally in regulated industries, and how franchising only works when incentives are aligned.From there, we widen the lens to healthcare economics, preventative care, food systems, regulation, and why “move fast and break things” is a catastrophic mindset when human health is involved. We contrast tech's tolerance for failure with healthcare's need for boring, proven reliability—and why lagging the cutting edge can actually be the strategic advantage.This isn't a conversation about avoiding risk.It's about understanding where risk belongs—and where it doesn't.TL;DR* Failure is a necessary feedback loop, not a personal flaw* Businesses fail when they copy instead of creating real value* In healthcare, innovation without evidence is dangerous—not disruptive* Franchising only works when value flows to franchisees, not out of them* “Boring” systems outperform cutting-edge ones in regulated environments* Affordability, safety, and quality can coexist with disciplined execution* Healthcare costs are driven by bureaucracy more than care delivery* Preventative care has the highest value-to-cost leverage—but the weakest incentives* Sustainable systems must be able to self-correct over timeMemorable Lines* “Failure isn't a setback—it's a feedback loop.”* “Boring is good when people's health is on the line.”* “If innovation lacks evidence, it's not innovation—it's experimentation.”* “You can't ‘move fast and break things' when the thing is a human being.”* “Long-term value dies the moment extraction becomes the strategy.”GuestDr. Vivek Aranki — Physician, healthcare entrepreneur, and founderFounder of a national cosmetic medicine group with 20 clinics across Australia, specializing in scalable, safety-first healthcare delivery and ethical franchising within highly regulated environments.Why This MattersModern business culture glorifies disruption without consequence.But in real systems—healthcare, regulation, food, human safety—failure has a cost. Understanding where experimentation belongs and where discipline must prevail is a leadership skill few master.For founders, operators, and executives navigating regulated industries or complex systems, this episode offers a sober counterweight to startup mythology: progress comes from feedback, restraint, and building structures that correct themselves before damage compounds.Success isn't about avoiding failure.It's about learning faster—without breaking what matters.

When it comes to serious health issues like obesity, heart disease, and cancer, Black Americans have higher rates and worse outcomes than most other groups in the U.S. It's a problem that's gained growing attention over the past few decades, as public health experts have worked to untangle the causes of these disparities, and to find ways of mitigating their effects. Now those efforts face serious headwinds, with federal funding cuts and pressure against DEI measures threatening to roll back progress. But in the face of these challenges, providers are doubling down on offering care that builds trust and delivers better outcomes. On this special production of The Pulse, we find out what that work looks like on the ground. From becoming an ally to patients to mentoring the next generation of Black physicians, we'll hear how providers are expanding access to quality care. We'll also explore how the birth of Medicare led to the desegregation of hospitals. Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford is changing the way we talk about obesity, and how we treat it. She explains why she got into obesity medicine in the first place, why she never gives her patients a goal weight, and how being invited to a patient's 90th birthday party was a great reminder of why her work matters. Pulse producer Nichole Currie gets into the kitchen with her aunt Gladys McLean to learn how to enjoy traditional Southern recipes while eating a healthy and nutritious diet. Physician, surgeon, and now-congressional candidate Ala Stanford gained national recognition during the pandemic, when she stepped up to provide COVID testing, and later vaccines, to underserved communities. She talks about how her own upbringing shaped her as a physician and leader —- and why increasing access and trust are key for better care.

Dr. Andy Southerland and Dr. Dipika Aggarwal discuss her remarkable journey as both a physician and a patient. After overcoming stage four colon cancer, she experienced a life‑altering stroke that reshaped her perspective.  Show transcript: Dr. Andy Southerland: Hello everyone. This is Andy Southerland and for this week's Neurology Minute, I've just been speaking with our colleague, Dipika Aggarwal, who's a clinical assistant professor of neurology at University of Kansas, who's been sharing her story for the Physician's Patient series from Cancer Survivorship and as a stroke survivor. And for the Neurology Minute, we wanted to share an important pearl that Dipika shared with me in her interview about stroke recovery and specifically about mental health outcomes after stroke. So Dipika, please, share with us for the Neurology Minute. Dr. Dipika Aggarwal: So yes, my biggest takeaway point from my own stroke experience was the neuropsychiatric complications that can happen as a risk from stroke. The most important ones being post-stroke depression, post-stroke anxiety. Even if the literature says that they can happen just for 30% of the cases, in reality, I think the incidence is more. But then they can affect quality of life of the stroke survivor, the recovery, and even in some cases can affect their mortality. So I think it is really important for healthcare providers, especially the neurologists, to ask their patients how they are doing mentally or emotionally. I think it is as important as checking their vitals during every visit. It is as important as that, because again, it can affect their recovery. Dr. Andy Southerland: Well, thank you, Dipika. I think it's a good message for all of us in the busyness of our clinics and seeing patients in rapid throughput in and out of the hospital with stroke to make sure that not only in those early days, but also all the way out in the continuum of their recovery, to continue to come back to their mental health recovery. And their personal recovery, as you've articulated, which is so critical to one stroke recovery. And for this and more, I really encourage our listeners, please listen to the entirety of this interview. You will come away with it being a better neurologist for your patients. I promise you that. And I'm truly grateful again to Dipika for joining us for this week's Neurology Minute.

This week, we look at new evidence on oral cholesterol-lowering therapy, the evolving role of beta-blockers after myocardial infarction, and advances in breast and prostate cancer treatment. We review the inherited risk of coronary disease. We also work through a revealing diagnostic case in a young woman and reflect on science under pressure, corporatized insurance, the reach of FDA law, and what it means to live with life-sustaining technology.

In Part 2 of the conversation with Dr. Peter Staats, the discussion expands beyond clinical medicine into leadership, advocacy, entrepreneurship, and the business realities shaping modern healthcare. Dr. Staats reflects on his extensive involvement in professional medical societies, explaining how each organization served a different mission—from physician advocacy and scientific advancement to global education and charitable efforts aimed at improving standards of pain care worldwide. The episode also explores Dr. Staats' entrepreneurial journey, including the founding of electroCore and his work in non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation. He candidly describes the challenges of bringing innovation to market, particularly the long and often frustrating path from FDA approval to insurance reimbursement. His experience highlights the significant risks, persistence, and strategic partnerships required to translate medical innovation into widely accessible patient care. Finally, Dr. Staats shares lessons from building and scaling large physician practices, navigating mergers and private equity, and balancing clinical integrity with executive decision-making. He concludes with guidance for younger physicians, emphasizing that long-term success comes from maintaining patient-centered values, protecting one's integrity, and approaching business opportunities thoughtfully rather than chasing short-term financial gain.

What does it mean to be ill? In episode 159 of Overthink, Ellie and David discuss illness. They explore how illness has been mythologized, how it may alienate us from our bodies, and how it impacts social relationships. Is science the solution to the mythologization of illness, or is the scientific model of illness its own form of mythology? How should we conceptualize illness? Is it as a “deviation” from a norm? And if so, what norm? Finally, what can we learn about illness from a phenomenological approach that centers the patient's first-person experience? In the Substack bonus segment, your hosts think about the distinction between the mental and the physical in connection to illness and the intersection between mind and body in illness.

In this Womb Wisdom episode, Kemi names the no-win tension Black board certified gynecologists and gynecologic oncologists walk into the moment they decide to educate publicly.  If a Black physician doesn't show up online, folks may ask, “Where are the trusted black doctors?” When they do show up, the critique becomes, “Ugh, they're just building a brand.” But the reality is: if you don't build visibility (aka branding), people who need accurate info won't find you, and misinformation wins.  Tune in as Kemi unpacks why that framing is both understandable and dangerously oversimplified. Yes, there are people using womb health as a marketing lane, pushing fear-based content, rigid narratives, and misinformation that spreads faster than nuance ever will. But the answer isn't blanket distrust. The answer is discernment.  Listen in to learn how to vet what you're hearing, who you're hearing it from, and what actually turns womb suffering into healing. Pre-order Dr. Doll's Book: A Terrible Strength: The Hidden Crisis of the Black Womb and Your Survival Guide to Healing By Kemi Doll, MD, MSCR   Join us in Healing Our Wombs at www.kemidoll.com/womb. Text Dr. Kemi directly.

A special release in honor of National Women Physicians Day 2026. Today's conversation is an invitation to notice overfunctioning with compassion. Overfunctioning may have helped you succeed in medicine but it often costs you intimacy, energy, and connection.   Overfunctioning and underfunctioning, as well as the resentment that follows, are a familiar relational dynamic. Overfunctioning is not a personality flaw; It's a role we step into. It is shaped by our training, context, and culture.   When we pause, rest, and allow space, we usually find that the world doesn't fall apart. Others step forward in their own time and way. Even when it feels unfamiliar, this shift can offer clarity, growth, and alignment with how we truly want to live and lead.     Pearls of Wisdom • Overfunctioning is a relational role developed in response to internal and external expectations. • When one person consistently does more, others often do less. Over time, the systems adapted this way. • Resentment is information. It often signals over-capacity. • Doing less can be an act of love that allows systems and relationships to reorganize. • When we stop stabilizing what's falling around us and tend to our own nervous systems first, is when change begins.     Reflection Questions Where in your life are you doing more than your share simply because you are capable? What feels most uncomfortable about stepping back? What might happen if you rest or stop managing? What would love do this week in your relationships or at work? Join me for coaching or a retreat to explore how to change the overfunctioning habit.  www.jessiemahoneymd.com In Mindful Love Small Group Coaching we specifically look at overfunctioining in the context of our intimate relationships. In Leading from the Heart and Transition Well Small Group Coaching  we work on it in the context of career and life pivots and leadership.  At retreats and advanced coaching, we work on moving beyond it in every realm of your life. If you are interested in having me speak to your group on overfunctioning or any of the topics discussed in this podcast, find out more here www.jessiemahoneymd.com/speaking or email me at jessie@jessiemahoneymd.com.

Physicians face higher rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide risk than the general population, yet most never seek mental health care. In this episode, Dr. Jesse Ehrenfeld, professor of anesthesiology at the Medical College of Wisconsin and Global Chief Medical Officer for AIDOC, discusses new JAMA research examining why. The conversation looks at how medical culture, stigma, time constraints and concerns about confidentiality or professional consequences can keep physicians from getting help, even when effective treatment exists.

Welcome to another episode of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! Happy Women Physician Day! In this special episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. Sunny Smith, founder of Empowering Women Physicians, to discuss the unique challenges facing women physicians and the coaching tools that are helping hundreds break free from burnout—without quitting medicine. If you've ever felt trapped, exhausted, or wondered "when does it get better?"—this conversation is for you. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: The Arrival Fallacy - Happiness Won't Come Later: The belief that you'll be happy "once you become an attending" or "once the kids are in school" is a fallacy. Happiness isn't found at some future milestone—it requires intentional choices now. The system won't change on its own, and no one is coming to save you. Agency Over Learned Helplessness: Medicine systematically exposes physicians to situations beyond their control, leading to learned helplessness. The antidote is recognizing you have agency and choice—even small 1% changes compound over time. Start with one closed chart, one boundary, one small decision that shows you can impact your outcome. Connection Breaks Isolation: You can't understand the mental load of being a physician unless you've been one. Being in community with other women physicians who normalize your struggles and model different choices is therapeutic. When you see others advocating for themselves—taking leave, setting boundaries, pursuing passion projects—it gives you permission to do the same. Bonus insight: It's not your job's job to make you happy—that's your job. And 77% of physicians entering coaching programs meet burnout criteria, but only 33% do after just 8 weeks, without changing jobs. Meet Dr. Sunny Smith: Sunny Smith MD is the Founder and CEO of Empowering Women Physicians. Dr Smith brings her background as an awarded Medical Educator, and Clinical Professor of Family Medicine and Public Health into the coaching space. She advocates for physician wellness through her comprehensive and collaborative coaching program, podcast, retreats and Facebook group that seek to change the culture of medicine through normalizing and humanizing the experience of being a physician.

Send us a textIn this episode, we explore Job's sharp words in Job 13:4, where he calls his friends “worthless physicians.” Through a personal story and Job's interaction with his friends, we examine the difference between care that heals and care that simply rushes to explain. Job's friends began well by showing up and sitting in silence, but they failed when they chose answers over empathy. Drawing wisdom from Proverbs, this episode challenges us to consider whether our words bring healing or harm when others come to us in pain.

Nationally recognized psychiatrist, internist, and addiction medicine specialist Muhamad Aly Rifai discusses his article "Physician legal rights: What to do when agents knock." Muhamad shares a terrifying but essential guide for any doctor facing an unexpected visit from federal agents or investigators. He explains why the physician's natural instinct to educate, reassure, and be helpful is actually a liability that can lead to a prison sentence. The conversation highlights the critical legal distinction established in Salinas v. Texas which means silence alone is not enough to protect you without a verbal invocation of rights. Muhamad contrasts real-life case studies of doctors who talked and lost everything with those who remained silent and were exonerated. Learn why the only safe response to an investigator is a specific single sentence that invokes your Fifth Amendment protection. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

“When Jesus heard it, He said to them, ‘Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.’” (Mark 2:17 NKJV) Jesus interacted with a remarkably diverse group of people during His public ministry. The Gospels record His encounters with Pharisees, tax collectors, Roman officials, fishermen, a Samaritan woman, and a host of others. One of the extraordinary things about these encounters is the personalized attention He gave each person, whether He was offering encouragement, rebuke, or healing. He recognized that every man, every woman, and every child is different. And though they have many of the same problems and the same basic needs, He realized that there were unique things about them that required individual ministry. He saw people for exactly who they were. He understood exactly what they needed. And He provided it. It’s no wonder people refer to Him as the Great Physician. Jesus Himself said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance” (Mark 2:17 NKJV). Like a physician, Jesus usually saw people at their worst. I’ve always thought that one of the hardest things about being a doctor is that you only see people when they’re sick or in need of medical assistance. Most physicians don’t get a lot of patients stopping by their office to say, “Hey, Doc, I’m feeling great! I just wanted to let you know. Want to go to lunch?” You don’t usually call your doctor when you’re feeling good. You call when you’re feeling sick. And your doctor will have you come in, examine you, and apply the necessary treatment to the area of need. Doctors, of course, are limited in their areas of expertise. Cardiologists specialize in heart health. Dermatologists specialize in matters of the skin. Gastroenterologists specialize in digestive system health. Hematologists specialize in blood disorders. Oncologists specialize in cancer treatment. The list goes on and on. Jesus, on the other hand, can treat the whole person. He caused the blind to see, the deaf to hear, the disabled to walk, and the dead to live. He removed the spiritual torment of the demon-possessed. He eased the emotional struggles of the frightened and grieving. He didn’t just improve people’s quality of life; He gave them a life they never knew was possible. That’s what He meant when He said, “I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” (John 10:10 NKJV). Jesus still provides personalized care for His people. He knows what you need. In fact, He knows better than you do what you need. And He can and will provide it. Reach out to Him. Open yourself to His loving ministry. Let Him guide you into the life He has planned for you. Enjoy all the benefits of having a personal Physician. Reflection question: How has Jesus impacted your life in a personal way?

From the very beginning of nurse anesthesia, opposition was organized, strategic, and relentless. Two central figures who devoted their careers to making anesthesia a physician-only specialty in the United States in the early 1900s were Frank and Laurette McMechan. Today, we'll examine their lives and professional impact in this historical episode with our show historians Nancy Bruton-Maree, CRNA and Sandy Ouellette, CRNA. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:

In this episode, Dr. John R. Mehall returns to the show for a discussion with host Dan Karnuta about the evolving economics of physician practice and how different organizational models — hospital employment, independent groups and private equity partnerships — shape autonomy, productivity and long-term sustainability. Drawing on his experience as a former cardiac surgeon and now healthcare executive and entrepreneur, Mehall explains why hospitals increasingly struggle to sustain physician employment, how subsidy-driven compensation models can create internal competition, and what it really takes for physicians to successfully transition back to independence through ancillaries, capital investment and operational support. Kaiser is director of the MS/MBA in Healthcare Leadership and Management for Professionals at UT Dallas' Naveen Jindal School of Management.

This time on Code WACK! How does Medicare Advantage - also known as privatized Medicare - fail seniors … especially seniors of color? Why do many seniors find they actually have no other choice than an Advantage plan? What's the consequence of that lack of choice? And how do Medicare Advantage insurance plans actually deepen racial and income disparities? To find out, we spoke with Dr. Belinda McIntosh — an Atlanta-based psychiatrist with more than 20 years of experience, a board member of Physicians for a National Health Program, and co-author of a new PNHP report titled “No Real Choices: How Medicare Advantage Fails Seniors of Color.” This is the first episode in a two-part series.

Desquamation Desquamation refers to the loss of the outer skin layers due to epidermal cell breakdown and shedding. In dermatology and on exams, the term is used when the epidermis begins to peel or slough. This ranges from mild peeling in well-appearing patients to life-threatening epidermal detachment in critically ill patients.

What if your career didn't have to be just one thing? In today's episode of the Doctors Crossing Carpe Diem podcast, we explore the idea of a portfolio career—a professional life made up of multiple aligned roles rather than a single, linear path. Using a powerful real-world example, we talk about how physicians can create more fulfillment, connection, and sustainability by thoughtfully diversifying how they work. I'm joined by Dr. Jess Beachkofsky, a psychiatrist who affectionately calls herself The Sunny Psychiatrist. Jess shares her journey from military medicine to telepsychiatry, private practice, and eventually a portfolio career that blends clinical work, nurse practitioner supervision, disability evaluations, teaching, and speaking. Her story is a beautiful example of how clarity often comes from experimentation—not from having it all figured out upfront. Together, we talk honestly about what wasn't working, what was missing, and how small "yeses" opened doors to a career that now feels deeply aligned. We also discuss the practical considerations of portfolio careers, including time management, income variability, benefits, and insurance—so you can explore your options with eyes wide open. If you're feeling stuck, lonely, under-stimulated, or simply curious about what else might be possible, this episode offers both inspiration and grounded guidance. In this episode we're talking about: What a portfolio career really looks like in real life How to recognize what's missing in your current role The emotional and practical benefits of career diversification Physician-friendly portfolio options inside and outside of medicine Nurse practitioner supervision as a meaningful side role The importance of small experiments instead of big leaps Questions to ask before moving away from a traditional W-2 role Links for this episode: Connect with Jessica Beachkofsky Jessica Beachkofsky's LinkedIn Episode #59: Want to Test Drive Your Career Idea?

After years of building your private practice, the time has come to sell. The business you have poured your time, energy, and money into is being bought by private equity. Should you take the payout in PE shares or cash? Nate Reineke delves into some key considerations that docs like you should know when faced with this situation. We break down how shares could benefit you in the long run and how cash could help keep you diversified. We also look at how taking some of each could offer the best of both worlds. We also answer your colleagues' questions. A Psychiatrist in New Jersey says, “We are financially independent but still working since we are in our mid 40s. We are considering shifting some money out of stocks and into bonds to get to a 60/40 portfolio. Is that a good idea for us?” An Ophthalmologist in Georgia asks, “We have all the money we need to pay for college. Should I take our money out of the stock market?” A Hand surgeon in Florida wonders, “The surrender period if finished on a variable annuity we purchased a while back. We were told that we are only paying 1% in fees on the account. Should we leave the money in the annuity?” 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.

OpenAI's launch of ChatGPT Health is reigniting a familiar debate about patient‑facing AI — how much it can empower people to access medical information, and how much it might amplify misinformation, anxiety, or privacy risks. ChatGPT Health allows users to securely enter personal health information and use ChatGPT's AI to better understand and manage their health concerns. Physicians note, however, that its impact on care will depend heavily on guardrails around accuracy, transparency, and how patients use the tool between visits. In this episode, Terry breaks down the pros and cons of AI in healthcare and highlights what providers should be cautious about as these tools become more common.
