Send us a textTransitioning from fellowship to your first attending job? You're probably not prepared for the business side of medicine—and that's exactly the problem Dr. Tung Giep addresses in this episode. Dr. Giep, a neonatologist with over 30 years of experience, shares hard-earned lessons from building and selling a private practice in Houston, navigating toxic work environments, and eventually finding his place in telemedicine. His new book, The Business of Medicine: The Definitive Guide to Help New Physicians Start Their Career on the Right Path and Avoid Costly Mistakes, tackles what medical training ignores: contract negotiation, non-competes, choosing the right CPA and attorney, and understanding your self-worth.Ben and Dr. Giep discuss why new physicians get blindsided by job offers, how to vet a practice properly, and the reality of community neonatology versus academic medicine. They also explore the growing role of AI in healthcare and what it means for the next generation of physicians.

Lindsay is joined by author Stephanie Cowell to discuss her book, “The Man in The Stone Cottage.” In 1846, Yorkshire, the Brontë sisters— Charlotte, Anne, and Emily— navigate precarious lives marked by heartbreak and struggle. Charlotte faces rejection from the man she loves, while their blind father and troubled brother add to their burdens. Despite their immense talent, no one will publish their poetry or novels. Amidst this turmoil, Emily encounters a charming shepherd during her solitary walks on the moors, yet he remains unseen by anyone else. After Emily's untimely death, Charlotte— now a successful author with Jane Eyre— stumbles upon hidden letters and a mysterious map. As she stands on the brink of her own marriage, Charlotte is determined to uncover the truth about her sister's secret relationship. The Man in the Stone Cottage is a poignant exploration of sisterly bonds and the complexities of perception, asking whether what feels real to one person can truly be real to another. STEPHANIE COWELL is the author of 7 novels, including Nicholas Cooke, The Physician of London, The Players: a novel of the young Shakespeare, Marrying Mozart, Claude & Camille: a novel of Monet, and The Boy in the Rain. Her work has been translated into several languages, optioned for film, and adapted into an opera. Cowell has been awarded an American Book Award. She has also been an opera singer, balladeer, and founder of the Strawberry Opera and an outdoor performance series in NYC. Fun facts include auditioning before Richard Rodgers, the Rodgers of Rodgers and Hammerstein fame, and performing in places like the famous Harvard Club and even mental institutions and prisons.

Attorney Bo Loeffler returns to the podcast to revisit with David the foundational principles of asset protection—what it is, why physicians need it, and how proper timing and structure make all the difference. The conversation begins with an overview of risk for physicians, from malpractice and employee claims to real estate liability and auto accidents and stresses the importance of addressing these risks before they arise. Bo and David emphasize the crucial concept that asset protection is only effective when implemented ahead of any foreseeable claim. The discussion then shifts to the three legs of the asset protection stool: proper insurance coverage, state-specific exempt assets, and legal tools such as LLCs and irrevocable trusts. Bo highlights how differences between state laws—especially Ohio's robust statutes—can dramatically impact the success of an asset protection plan. They also explain how tools such as LLCs and Domestic Asset Protection Trusts can be structured to protect against creditors through features like charging orders, sole-remedy statutes, and sate-specific limitations on creditor remedies. Finally, the episode examines real legal cases—including one in Colorado involving LLC misuse and one in Delaware validating long-standing asset protection trust structures—to illustrate what works and what fails in the real world. David concludes by drawing a parallel to medicine: asset protection requires both "surgery" (establishing tools) and "rehab" (proper, ongoing maintenance). With Bo's deep experience drafting state statutes and litigating these issues, the episode provides a practical, high-level roadmap for physicians looking to protect their personal and professional assets.

The holiday season brings many fun traditions, like going to see the lights, opening Advent calendars, baking, or shopping for the perfect gift. Since the holidays also signal the end of the year, it can be a time to think about taxes, too. Nate Reineke and Chelsea Jones break down some of the tax breaks doctors like you can try to catch at the last second, like maxing out contributions. We also look at some tax breaks that take a bit more planning, like charitable donations, that you could plan for in 2026. We also answer your colleagues' questions. An Anesthesiologist in Iowa says, “I want to help my son with a home purchase - what is the best way for me to do this?” An Oncologist in Colorado asks, “Do you think a really early retirement is worth pursuing?” A Family Medicine Doc in Texas says, “I've heard about this opportunity from a few colleagues to buy into this cash flow business (storage units). The projected return seems really appealing (20-30% over 3 years). What do you think?” Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

In season 6 Episode 6  I am delighted to welcome Graham Walker, MD to the podcast. Dr Walker is an emergency physician by clinical background who practices in San Francisco, completing his medical school training at Stanford University School of Medicine. He also majored in social policy as an undergraduate and has had a life long interest in software development and digital technology. Today he combines these interests and skills in his clinical and non-clinical roles.Graham is the co-director of Advanced Development at The Permanente Medical Group (TPMG), which delivers care for Kaiser Permanente's 4.6 million members in Northern California. At TPMG, Graham works on practical AI development, commercialization, partnerships, and technology transformation under the Chief Innovation Officer. As a clinical informaticist, he also leads emergency and urgent care strategy for KP's electronic medical record. With an appetite and aptitude for tech innovation and entrepreneurship Dr Walker created and founded MDCalc as a resident, a free online clinical decision support tool many clinicians including myself have been using for years now, indeed MDCalc turned 20 this month.More recently Graham co-founded the platform and community  Offcall with a mission to bring joy back to medicine and facilitate contract transparency and financial literacy for US medical practitioners. These two online resources are dedicated to helping physicians globally.  In his free time Graham writes about the intersection of AI, technology, and medicine, and created The Physicians' Charter for Responsible AI, a practical guide to implementing safe, accurate, and fair AI in healthcare settings.In this conversation I have an opportunity to explore Dr Walkers perspective at the intersection of AI, technology and medicine and revisit some emerging themes from season 6 in relation to leading change and innovation in complex, siloed healthcare systems.  We discuss the challenges of communicating change efforts in this context and Graham shares his practical pearls for elevating clinical voices and translating information across disparate stakeholder groups. With a unique leadership role in his own organisation in this space I was keen to explore his perspectives on creating opportunities for intrapreneurship. Dr Walker is a globally respective clinical voice on AI in healthcare and we discuss the perils and promise of AI , the Physician Charter for responsible use of AI in medicine and his Offcall survey and  pending report on physicians views on the technology application and implementation in medicine ( now published and linked below) Finally it is Graham's mission to bring joy and humanity back to medicine and to use technology responsibly to augment the clinician experience and skillset enabling safer and higher quality care that is the major draw for me.  Thank you Dr Walker for you work which has global relevance and reach.Links / References:https://drgrahamwalker.comhttps://www.offcall.comThe Mind Full Medic Podcast is proudly sponsored by the MBA NSW-ACT Find out more about the charitable organisation supporting doctors and their families and/ or donate today at www.mbansw.org.auDisclaimer: The content in this podcast is not intended to constitute or be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.

What do you do when your EHR vendor suddenly shuts down and you only have months to find a replacement? For Sound Physicians, that deadline sparked a bold pivot - one that put APIs and collaboration at the center of their technology strategy.In this interview, Dria McCluskey, SVP of Innovation and Technology at Sound Physicians, and Venky Chellappa, VP of Sales and Business Development at CharmHealth, share how they tackled a high-stakes RFP and built a partnership that will help both organizations in the years ahead. What could have been a crisis, became a solid foundation through close collaboration, dedicated executive leaders, and a willingness to stretch in new directions. The lesson for all Health IT vendors: It's not always about features. It's about being easy to work with too.

Send us a textImagine this: You see a patient, perform the exam, document the care, your staff submits the claim—to all appearances everything looks right. But then the claim comes back denied. The team may shrug, file it away, mark it unresolved. And the revenue disappears. What you delivered—the service, the documentation, the provider expertise—is lost financially. And more often than you think, this is happening silently. And this is in addition to the money you're losing on adjustments, which we reviewed in our last episode.Today we're diving into an issue that's also quietly eroding the bottom line of many medical groups: claim denials that aren't followed up. The stats are startling: about 20% of medical insurance claims are denied (yes, you heard that correctly: one‑in‑five) and around 65% of those denials are never appealed or corrected. Put those together and you get this: if 20% are denied, and 65% of those are lost, you're effectively giving away 13% of your revenue. That's a huge hit—and yet most practices aren't managing it as one of their top financial risks. Many aren't even aware of it. They've just gotten used to it over the years as an “acceptable loss.”This isn't theory—it's real work you've done, for real patients, with real documentation and care. And if you don't follow up on denials, you're essentially saying someone else's rules are dictating your revenue. For physician groups, this means margin gets squeezed, growth stalls, and independence becomes harder to maintain. All because you're handing over a bunch of money to the payers.Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

Send us a textWhat do you need more of right now?Your brain will say: time, sleep, money, peace on earth, a functioning Epic inbox. Fair.But this week, we're naming the thing that quietly drives everything else: connection.Not “more people.” Not “more social plans.”More moments where you actually feel connected—to your people, to your purpose, and to yourself.Because you can be surrounded all day (patients, staff, family) and still feel… nothing. Or worse: irritated, numb, braced, and already mentally leaving the room while your body is still sitting there.This episode is a gentle—but very real—invitation to come back.In this episode, we talk about:Why connection is often the missing ingredient for stressed, high-functioning women physiciansThe difference between being around people and feeling connectedThe secret ingredient you can't skip: presenceHow to recognize what connection feels like in your body (not someone else's Pinterest version)Three kinds of connection to practice this week:Connection to other humansConnection to a cause/passionConnection to yourselfThe hard truth: if connection feels totally inaccessible right now, that's not a character flaw—it's a signal you need supportYour Week 9 Challenge: Micro Moments of ConnectionPick one focus area this week—don't do all three unless you genuinely want to.Connection to other humansTry one “micro moment” per day:Put the phone down, face someone, make eye contactGive a real hug (not the drive-by shoulder bump)Share one honest sentence instead of your highlight reelBe fully there for 60 seconds (yes, even at the dinner table)2. Connection to a cause or passionIf connection with people feels like… a lot right now, connect to something that matters:Contribute, participate, show up, or simply remember why you careLet your work link you to meaning (even if the system is a mess)3. Connection to yourselfThis one is underrated—and powerful:Notice your self-talk: is it kind, or is it a hostile attending who never goes off service?Try a few minutes of journaling, stillness, prayer, meditation, or a walk with no inputChoose one moment where you stop abandoning yourselfA quick reflection (do this right now)Think of a time you felt genuinely connected. Ask:What did that feel like in my body?What thoughts were present?What made that moment possible?Then choose your tiny practice for the week.Because connection isn't a grand gesture.It's a repeatable skill.You're not behindIf you're joining mid-challenge, welcome.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this special episode, Dr. Sarah Smith joins forces with Dr. Priyanka Venugopal from the Unstoppable Mom Brain Podcast for a deeply insightful conversation all about reclaiming time and creating more sustainable clinical practices. Together, they dive into the real-life struggles physicians face when it comes to finishing work at work—and not letting charting and paperwork spill into precious family time. Dr. Smith shares her own journey of burnout, the “aha” moments that changed her approach forever, and the practical strategies that helped her—and now hundreds of other clinicians—conquer endless documentation and interruptions. This episode is packed with actionable gems, from simple mindset shifts to rethinking workflow, delegation, and team dynamics. Whether you're a physician, a professional working mom, or anyone craving more balance between career and home, this conversation will inspire you to rethink what's possible. Tune in for tangible tips, relatable stories, and a whole lot of encouragement to create those “bucket loads of time” you've been searching for. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Redesign Your Workflow—One Small Step at a Time: Challenging your status quo doesn't require a massive overhaul overnight. Dr. Smith emphasizes starting with one thing you wish were different, then getting curious about how to make that change—whether it's charting as you go or setting clearer boundaries for finishing tasks before heading home. Choose the 'Goat Track' over the 'Superhighway': Our brains crave familiar (often inefficient) routines. Breaking those habits will feel awkward and slower at first, but staying consistent creates more “bucket loads of time”—those open evenings and weekends we all crave. Teamwork and Delegation Create Freedom: Whether you have a team or work solo, look for ways to delegate, systematize, and create assets that make recurring tasks easier. Training others (or even your future self!) means you spend your best energy on what truly requires your expertise. Episode 102: Burn Stress. Lose Weight.

Dr. Tessa Damm, an ICU physician turned metabolic health advocate, shares her insights on why women often miss early signs of metabolic dysfunction and how to take back control of their health. Drawing from years in critical care and personal experience with chronic illness, Dr. Damm explains how lifestyle interventions can prevent life-threatening diseases and improve quality of life at any age. She also describes her 12-week Metabolic Transformations™ program, which blends science, coaching, and community to help women achieve lasting health transformations. This episode is a compelling reminder that chronic disease is not inevitable—and that vibrant health is within reach. In this episode, you'll discover: Why 88% of American adults have some degree of metabolic dysfunction How signs like fatigue, brain fog, and stubborn belly fat are often dismissed as "normal aging" The major flaws in our healthcare system's approach to chronic disease Why accountability and community support are essential for successful health changes The surprising results women experience—including increased energy, reduced pain, and regained self-confidence How Dr. Damm's approach differs from traditional medicine with personalized biometrics and weekly habit tweaks What to consider when investing in preventive health instead of waiting for a crisis Memorable Quotes: "No one is coming to save you. Our healthcare system is designed to react to disease, not prevent it." "Chronic disease is not inevitable—and your everyday habits are your most powerful tool." "The real magic is mental—women stop obsessing over their bodies and reclaim their confidence." Bio: Dr. Tessa Damm is an ICU physician who has spent years caring for critically ill adults—often seeing undiagnosed metabolic dysfunction driving life-threatening disease. She now leads Metabolic Transformations™, a high-touch program helping women take back control of their health, reshape their metabolism, and create a future they're excited about.

By prioritizing frequent touch-points, individualized lifestyle education, and small-group support with women on the same journey, she consistently helps clients achieve meaningful, lasting change. Her mission is simple: show that chronic disease is not inevitable—and give women the tools to rewrite their health trajectory.

God does not want to heal your body. ... The function of thinking that God wants to heal your body is rooted in the belief that your body is separate from His.

Physician advocate and physical therapist Kim Downey and counselor Shari Morin-Degel discuss their article, "Why burnout prevention starts with leadership." Shari shares her personal journey from a trauma-exposed mental health professional to a burned-out leader who initially expected her team to just "push through." The conversation highlights how she reached a breaking point and realized that true recovery requires more than just individual resilience, it requires systemic support. Kim and Shari explore the data behind the "My Work BALANCE" initiative, revealing that employee engagement with wellness tools soars only when leaders actively model participation and provide paid time for it. They discuss critical research on behavior change and argue that tools alone are useless without a culture of visible norms and psychological safety.

What a year it has been. In this special Year in Review 2025 episode of The Lebanese Physicians Podcast, Khalil Diab and MohammadAli Jardaly look back at a remarkable year of conversations that went far beyond medicine. From artificial intelligence and innovation to humanities, storytelling, identity, and reinvention, 2025 revealed a powerful shift in how we talk about healthcare, careers, and purpose. We revisited unforgettable episodes featuring physicians, scientists, writers, entrepreneurs, and leaders from Lebanon and the diaspora voices that challenged assumptions, changed perspectives, and reminded us that medicine is as human as it is scientific. This episode reflects on: The growing role of AI in healthcare and beyond The return of humanities, books, and personal journeys to medical dialogue Powerful stories of career reinvention, entrepreneurship, and finding purpose Highlighting Lebanese and regional talent making a global impact Why you are never stuck—in medicine or in life Lessons learned from guests who reshaped how we think about success, risk, and fulfillment We also discuss how the podcast itself is evolving embracing video, reaching new audiences, and expanding its mission as an open platform for meaningful conversations. You don't have to be a physician to be part of this dialogue—if you have a story worth sharing, this space is for you.

A Letter From Me to YouAs we close out 2025, I wanted to take a moment to speak directly to you - doctor to doctor, human to human.This episode is a little different. It's a twist on 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, written as a reflection of our shared journey as physicians. It honors not only the work we do in exam rooms and inboxes, but also the quiet, unseen work that happens in kitchens, cars, call rooms, and living rooms - the places where our families, our partners, and our loved ones carry this life with us.My hope is that you'll hear pieces of your own story in this reading: the exhaustion that shows up at the end of a too-long day, the hope that never fully disappears, and the quiet, stubborn resilience that keeps you moving forward. Whether you practice Direct Primary Care or another model, the heart of what we do is human-centered medicine, and that heart beats strongest when we remember that compassion includes ourselves.This episode is my way of acknowledging the realities we juggle, the trust we're fighting to reclaim between doctor and patient, and the community that continues to grow around this movement. It's an invitation to take a breath, to feel seen, and to know you are not doing this alone.As you listen, I hope you feel warmth. I hope you feel connection and I hope you step into the new year with a little more light.With gratitude,Maryal Concepcion, MD Family Physician & MomKeywords: Direct Primary Care, physician wellness, holiday podcast, medical compassion, family, physician support, Christmas storySupport the showBe A My DPC Story PATREON MEMBER!

Healthcare unions are gaining momentum in hospitals and health systems, and if you're a private practice owner, this shift creates a significant opportunity for you. With 25% of physicians in hospital-led organizations actively considering leaving, experienced doctors are looking for alternatives to systems that have burned them out—and many are turning their attention to private practice.  In this SNACK episode, Tracy and Miranda explore what's really driving the unionization movement (inhumane expectations in large systems where physicians lack the protections nurses and residents receive), why younger physicians initially choose employment over ownership, and most importantly—how practice owners can position themselves to attract this wave of talented physicians seeking autonomy.  Tracy shares specific strategies for making your practice attractive to seasoned providers: tiered partnership models, profit-sharing arrangements, and creating genuine autonomy rather than just another employed position. This conversation goes beyond basic hiring advice—it's about understanding the pain points driving physicians away from hospital systems and showing them what's possible in your practice.  If you're thinking about expanding, bringing on a partner, or scaling your practice, this episode will shift how you think about recruitment and growth.  Read the full show notes, memorable quotes, and key takeaways.  Connect With Us:  Be a Guest on the Show  Thriving Practice Community  Schedule Strategy Session with Tracy  Tracy's LinkedIn  Business LinkedIn Page

This week on Tales we enter the vaults to revisit - and re-record - one of the five early episodes still on here that was recorded on my cheap, starter microphone. (We'll knock the other four off next year in mid-season breaks.)  With Christmas just around the corner this seems as good a time as any to follow a young Charles Dickens around Canongate Graveyard in Edinburgh Scotland looking for ghosts… And we meet the man who - most likely - influenced one of his most famous characters - John Elwes, The Miser of Marcham Park. Apologies for the break between parts one and two of The Tichborne Claimant. I'm hoping to get that out in the last week of December.  Sources this week include:  Sorry all I never took down any of my sources for this at the time of the original.

Have you ever found yourself helping a loved one through a confusing medical situation and thought, "I wish I could do this full-time"? You're not alone. Many physicians are naturally drawn to patient advocacy and navigation, even if they don't yet realize it has a name or a career path. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Angie Ingraham, a former trauma surgeon and critical care physician who made a powerful career transition after her father's diagnosis with glioblastoma. Experiencing the healthcare system from the other side opened her eyes to the gaps patients and families face. That journey led her to launch True North Patient Advocates, where she now supports others through complex medical situations with clarity and compassion. Whether you've thought about becoming a patient advocate and navigator — or are simply curious about what this work actually involves — Angie shares the real-life steps she took to create a fulfilling and sustainable new path.   In this episode we're talking about: How a personal family crisis led Dr. Ingraham to explore patient navigation The surprising barriers patients face, even with medical connections What professional patient advocates and navigators actually do and how physicians are uniquely qualified How she built her business without formal business training The variety of clients and services in her day-to-day work Financial considerations and typical rates for advocates Steps you can take to explore this path for yourself You can find the show notes for this episode and more information by clicking here: www.doctorscrossing.com/episode236 Links for this episode: Dr. Angie Ingram — True North Patient Advocates Greater National Advocates Directory Alliance of Professional Health Advocates - Offers a Boot Camp and 100-day program for business startup Health Advocate X Patient Advocate Certification Board National Association of Healthcare Advocacy Work Episode #68: Being a Patient Advocate is a Real Option Episode #156: How To Start A Side Gig Or Business As A Patient Navigator  

This week, we look at ctDNA-guided immunotherapy for bladder cancer, cardiovascular outcomes with tirzepatide, and evidence that one HPV vaccine dose may be enough. We explore high-dose rifampin for tuberculous meningitis, review measles amid rising outbreaks, and follow a challenging case of gastrointestinal bleeding. Essays examine how clinicians navigate post-Dobbs care, tobacco harm among people with mental illness, congenital syphilis, and sustaining medical research.

This week on Health Matters, we're sharing an episode of NewYork-Presbyterian's Advances in Care, a show for listeners who want to stay at the forefront of the latest medical innovations and research. On this episode of Advances in Care, host Erin Welsh first hears from Dr. Richard Friedman, a clinical psychiatrist at NewYork-Presbyterian and Director of the Psychopharmacology Clinic at Weill Cornell Medicine. Using his background in psychopharmacology, Dr. Friedman distinguishes between psychedelics and standard antidepressants like SSRIs and SNRIs, explaining the various mechanisms in the brain that respond uniquely to psychedelic compounds. Dr. Friedman also identifies that the challenge of proving efficacy of psychedelic therapy lies in the question of how to design a clinical trial that gives patients a convincing placebo. To learn more about the challenges of trial design, Erin also speaks to Dr. David Hellerstein, a research psychiatrist at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia. Dr. Hellerstein contributed to a 2022 trial of synthetic psilocybin in patients with treatment resistant depression. He and his colleagues took a unique approach to dosing patients so that they could better understand the response rates of patients who use psychedelic therapy. The results of that trial underscore an emerging pattern in the field of psychiatry – that while psychedelic therapy has its risks, it's also a promising alternative treatment for countless psychiatric disorders. Dr. Hellerstein also shares more about the future of clinical research on psychedelic therapies to potentially treat a range of mental health disorders.***Dr. Richard Friedman is a professor of clinical psychiatry and is actively involved in clinical research of mood disorders. In particular, he is involved in several ongoing randomized clinical trials of both approved and investigational drugs for the treatment of major depression, chronic depression, and dysthymia.Dr. David J. Hellerstein directs the Depression Evaluation Service at Columbia University Department of Psychiatry, which conducts studies on the medication and psychotherapy treatment of conditions including major depression, chronic depression, and bipolar disorder.___Health Matters is your weekly dose of health and wellness information, from the leading experts.

Jonathan shares the firm's vertically integrated model (25K apartments, 12M sq ft industrial, 5K hotel keys), why they commit 20% of their own capital first (5-10x industry norms), and how physicians can diversify beyond stocks or DIY rentals. He breaks down direct vs. passive CRE, asset class pitfalls (office flops vs. industrial wins), and red flags like inexperienced managers or 85% debt. With examples like their Greenville industrial deal, Jonathan proves alignment and conviction drive better outcomes empowering busy doctors to build legacy wealth safely.  If you're a high-income physician eyeing real estate for tax efficiency and passive income, this is your guide to investing like institutions without the headaches. Three Actionable Takeaways:   Decide direct vs. passive: If time-strapped, skip hands-on rentals for platforms like Lightstone Direct, vet managers on track record, cycles navigated, and skin in game (aim for 20%+). Passive reduces risks like tenant concentration; focus on assets like industrial for steady returns over volatile office or retail. Qualify and evaluate: As accredited (200K/300K income or 1M net worth), request decks/PPMs/operating agreements. Ask: Debt levels? Exit strategies? Risk mitigation? Compare projected IRRs realistically—avoid 20%+ promises tied to high leverage. Prioritize alignment where sponsors invest heavily first for shared incentives.

Urologist William Lynes discusses his article, "Teaching medical students what it is really like to be a physician." He confronts the tragic reality of physician burnout and suicide, arguing the culture of overwork is bred into medical training from day one. William proposes a critical shift in medical education: a continuous course led by practicing physicians to teach students that maintaining their own mental health is essential to providing excellent clinical care. He shares his powerful personal story of learning this lesson "too late," urging for systemic change to address physician mental health before it becomes a crisis. Learn why prioritizing clinician well-being is the most important lesson medical schools are failing to teach. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.
