Licensed attorney Anu Murthy discusses her article, "A lawyer's guide to physician side gigs." Anu details why the pandemic caused an explosion in physician side gigs (from telehealth to passion projects) and why many doctors are seeking new income streams, driven by everything from burnout to the FIRE movement. She reveals the number one risk to a doctor's medical license: their primary employment contract. Anu explains the complex legal hurdles doctors must navigate, including contract prohibitions, conflicts of interest (like pharma consulting or expert witness work), the need for separate malpractice insurance, and intellectual property considerations. Discover the essential legal steps to protect your license before starting a side gig, and learn the shocking ways employers can claw back your extra income.

Physician coach Michelle Chestovich MD shares a past episode on how gratitude is beneficial in so many ways.

Most practices think they need more—more patients, more visits, more volume. But what if the real revenue opportunity isn't volume at all… it's coding?In this episode, Dr. Heather sits down with Dr. Anne Hirsch, an internal medicine physician turned coding expert and physician coach, to explore why most practices are coding far below what their clinical work justifies—often doing a level 5 visit, documenting a level 4, and billing a level 3.You'll learn:• Why “fear-based coding” is silently draining your revenue• The most common undercoding patterns physicians don't realize they're doing• How better documentation reduces burnout and increases clinician confidence • Real examples of everyday visits that should nearly always be level 4s • How to implement quarterly audits, templates, and MDM habits that actually stick • Why physician-to-physician coding education creates better adoption and outcomes • How improved coding can add $30,000–$35,000+ per physician per year—without adding a single new patientIf your practice hasn't had a coding audit in the last 6–12 months, this episode is your wake-up call.Want a free coding evaluation for your practice?

In this episode, Guy talked with Dr. Nisha Manek. She challenges conventional understandings of consciousness and delves into the intersection of science and spirituality. Emphasizing that consciousness is not a product of the brain, Nisha discussed the latent capacities of human beings and the need to elevate our levels of conscious awareness. Through her experiences as a medical doctor and her studies with physicist William Tiller, she explored the potential of intention to affect physical reality, the limitations of modern medicine, and the importance of inner work. Nisha also shared practical advice on meditation and the transformative power of silence. About Dr. Nisha: Nisha Manek is an internally recognized leader in the field of integrative medicine. Nisha's humble background from Kenya propelled her to transcend limitations: gender, ethnicity, and financial status. From Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, where she graduated Summa cum laude, to the University of Glasgow School of Medicine in Scotland, Nisha's uncommon tenacity has driven her to ask difficult questions and pursue answers beyond traditional medical paradigms.  Nisha began her career in rheumatology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Recognized as Teacher of the Year in the School of Medicine, she brings storytelling as a core skill to bedside medical teaching and on the plenary stage.  But she didn't stop there. Nisha partnered with one of the world's most innovative physicists, Emeritus Professor William A. Tiller of Stanford University, and pushed the boundaries of what is possible in medicine. She is the preeminent doctor of information medicine, which intersects consciousness, biofield science, and rheumatology to improve human health.  She has authored a one-of-a-kind book, Bridging Science and Spirit, which closes the gap between two seemingly separate areas of knowledge. She is a fellow of the American College of Physicians and a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of the United Kingdom.

Her story is one of passion and perseverance, shaped by influential mentors and a deep love for science and biology. We explore how her early exposure to healthcare set her on a path marked by determination, from shadowing opportunities in high school to embracing the rigors of college science courses. Julia's journey is a testament to the profound impact of nurturing mentors and the power of early influences in shaping a lifelong commitment to the medical field.For those considering the premed track, the journey can be transformative, as experienced by a student who transitioned from Gonzaga University to the University of Pennsylvania. Initially drawn to Gonzaga for its small class sizes, they discovered a passion for neuroscience that led them to seek a university with more robust resources. At Penn, the pre-health office and a vibrant community of peers provided essential support, including MCAT preparation and research opportunities at CHOP. This narrative highlights the importance of aligning educational environments with personal aspirations and the value of a supportive academic community.The road to medicine is often fraught with challenges, notably the MCAT, which can test even the most dedicated students. Our candid discussion on the arduous journey of MCAT preparation reveals that struggles are common, but perseverance and strategic changes in study approaches can lead to success. For those pursuing an MD/PhD, like our guest, taking gap years to gain research experience can prove invaluable. Whether it's choosing the right medical school or overcoming skepticism from others, the journey demands resilience and alignment with one's passions. As we reflect on these stories, we hope to offer encouragement and guidance for future medical professionals navigating their unique paths.

One week ago Tuesday, a confrontation led to St. Paul police using chemical irritants and projectiles on a crowd. Hundreds of people gathered to protest and document the arrest of two people by federal immigration agents. The police department says it is reviewing officers' response. The incident came just days after a similar confrontation with federal agents in another part of the city. They, too, used chemical irritants and projectiles. In cities across the country, federal immigration actions have resulted in frequent clashes between law enforcement and community members who are organizing to respond. More could be on the horizon after reports came out Tuesday that federal agents are expected to target hundreds of Somali immigrants in the Twin Cities. Minneapolis and St. Paul leaders said in a press conference that local law enforcement will not assist the operation but will respond to public safety threats. To understand more about the health impacts of what are called less lethal methods of crowd control, MPR News host Nina Moini talked with Dr. Rohini Haar. She is an emergency physician, a medical advisor for the group Physicians for Human Rights and a lecturer in the University of California-Berkeley law school.

Send us a textIn a sector where women make up the majority of the workforce, why are women still under-represented in the seats of power in medical groups?That's the question we're digging into today. Because while it's no secret that healthcare has long depended on the contributions of women—as physicians, nurses, administrators, and operational leaders—the top roles still tend to skew male. And when you take a close look at medical groups, especially larger ones, the imbalance becomes even clearer.But this isn't just a fairness issue. This is a strategic issue. Promoting more women into leadership roles is one of the smartest things a medical group can do. It strengthens decision-making, improves communication, builds healthier teams, and creates a culture of resilience. Today, we'll explore why.We're going to cover a lot of ground: the traditional gender imbalance, the advantages of gender-diverse leadership, how men and women often lead differently, how those styles complement each other, why compensation and negotiation matter, and how remote work might help level the playing field. We'll also touch on what the future could look like if medical groups commit to equity—not just in theory, but in practice.Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

What happens when your childhood calling collides with a system that limits your capacity to live it out?In this Echo Episode, Dr. Maria Sturchler shares her extraordinary journey from first-generation college student to educator to medical student, years after being told she “wouldn't make it” in medicine. Now double board-certified in Emergency Medicine and Palliative Care, Maria reveals how serendipity, mentorship, and resilience brought her back to her original dream on her own terms.She and Andrea unpack the realities pushing talented clinicians out of traditional EM practice: night shifts, moral injury, violence in the ED, corporate interference, loss of autonomy, and the identity crisis that comes with stepping away. Maria gives voice to the hidden grief, burnout, and shame physicians carry when “the path” no longer fits.But this is not a story of defeat. Maria now leads an innovative palliative care model embedded inside the emergency department, freeing EM physicians from burdens that don't belong to them, reducing patient suffering, and restoring meaning to clinical work. Her message is equal parts invitation and disruption: medicine is not a prison. It's a “choose-your-own-adventure” and there are more off-ramps, pivots, and second chances than most physicians believe.You'll Hear How They:Reframe imposter syndrome and harmful feedback that derails dreamsNavigate grief when an identity built on EM no longer aligns with personal well-beingDescribe the hidden toll of EM: disrupted circadian rhythm, motherhood challenges, pandemic trauma, and corporate shiftsIntegrate palliative care inside the ED, reducing length of stay, improving communication, and radically supporting EM physiciansUse mentorship, self-inquiry, and values alignment to identify career pivots About the Guest“Medicine is choose-your-own-adventure.” — Dr. Maria SturchlerDr. Maria Sturchler is a dual board-certified physician in Emergency Medicine and Palliative Care, a three-time Ironman competitor, and a former mathematics educator whose doctoral work examined gender disparities in STEM. After being discouraged from medicine early on, serendipity and mentorship led her back to her calling.

EM skills travel well into palliative care, leadership roles, education, coaching, and hybrid models that better honor your values.Boundaries are not betrayal—they are survival: Choosing your health, family, sleep, identity, and emotional bandwidth is not weakness. It is wisdom. Physicians cannot sustain compassion without protecting their humanity.The future belongs to systems that humanize care: Embedded palliative programs, interdisciplinary partnerships, and values-based innovations reduce burnout, shorten ED holds, and restore dignity to medicine—one conversation at a time.

Welcome to another episode of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this podcast episode #150 we shine a light on the real experiences of early-career medical professionals and listening to the voices of junior doctors. I'm your host, Dr. Sarah Smith, and today we're joined by Victoria Lister—researcher, workplace coach, and passionate advocate for change in healthcare. Diving into the hidden struggles junior doctors face: the culture of silence, the impact of discrimination and burnout, and the critical importance of psychological safety at work. Victoria shares her research and personal insights on why so many doctors feel unable to speak up, and what leaders and colleagues can do to create safer, more supportive environments. Whether you're a medical professional, a student, or simply interested in the future of healthcare, this conversation is packed with eye-opening stories and practical advice. Let's get started! Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: The Culture of Silence in Medicine: Junior doctors often feel unable to speak up about their working conditions due to fear of retaliation, career setbacks, and entrenched hierarchies. This silence can have serious consequences for both staff wellbeing and patient safety. Psychological Safety is Essential: Creating environments where junior doctors feel safe to voice concerns is crucial. Leadership that listens, acts, and genuinely supports staff can transform toxic workplaces into supportive, high-performing teams. Discrimination and Burnout are Widespread: Issues like bullying, harassment, and discrimination—based on gender, race, or background—are still prevalent in medical training. Addressing these challenges requires systemic change, open conversations, and collective action to ensure a healthier future for all healthcare professionals. Meet Victoria Lister: Victoria Lister is a researcher in the Business School at Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia. Her PhD research investigates junior doctors' working conditions silences and how the medical profession acts as a barrier to voice. To support junior doctors, Victoria trained as a workplace coach and is currently researching and delivering a ‘coaching for communication' program for emergency medicine clinicians. She also works on other research projects in the medical context; has consulted on a healthcare workforce wellbeing initiative and a cultural change program designed to address bullying, harassment and discrimination in medicine; and has published on these themes.

Using authentic clinic vignettes and research, they explain how such comments harm teamwork, increase patient confusion, distress, and even worsen outcomes. The hosts review four common scenarios, discuss why clinicians sometimes engage in this behavior, and offer clear solutions for patients and providers — including how patients can advocate for themselves and how clinicians can communicate professionally, empathetically, and through direct collegial contact.

Deb Nevins, Director of Product Strategy at POCN, emphasizes the expanding role and importance of Nurse Practitioners and Physician Associates in the American healthcare system.  These professionals have evolved from being an extension of the physician to becoming autonomous clinicians who handle a wide range of patient care, including diagnosing, prescribing, and creating treatment plans for a significant portion of the patient population. In many cases, NPs and PAs are filling care gaps in rural and underserved areas and applying a more holistic approach to healthcare in an increasingly virtual healthcare environment. Deb explains, "POCN is an organization that has been around for over 10 years now. It started really with the mission to support nurse practitioners and physician associates and help them practice at the top of their license. And we do that multiple ways, but specifically we like to say it's a learn, earn, care, and connect model. So we provide educational insights to them. We allow them to connect with each other on our platforms, and we also bring them forward to pharmaceutical companies to help them better understand the role that they play in patient care today."   "Well, it's really interesting because both nurse practitioners and physician associates have really stepped up their responsibilities and roles since the timeframe when COVID started, where there was such a backlog. So they used to be thought of as more physician extenders or as mid-levels, but we can no longer say that. So nurse practitioners, physicians, and associates will handle everything with patient care from the initial intake, counseling, diagnosing, creating the treatment plan, prescribing medications, doing the follow-up, and ensuring that they're managing during side effects or anything like that that might happen. They support the patient with access challenges as they try to get their medications. So they basically do almost everything that a physician, an MD or a DO would do, except that they're not doing surgery or they're not doing super complex cases, but they have autonomy."  #ElevatingCare #VoicesInCare #PatientsFirstCare #POCN #WomenInHealthcare #VisibilityMatters #HealthcareLeadership #AmplifyNPs #AmplifyPAs pocn.com  Listen to the podcast here

Celiac disease affects between one and two percent of Canadians, yet many patients wait years before receiving a clear diagnosis. On this episode of the CMAJ Podcast, the hosts speak with two contributors to the CMAJ review article Diagnosis and management of celiac disease about the condition's diverse clinical presentations, appropriate testing strategies, and the practical realities of long-term dietary management.Jedid-Jah Blom, a registered dietitian at the McMaster Celiac Disease Clinic and researcher at the Farncombe Family Digestive Health Research Unit at McMaster University, shares her own experience being diagnosed and living with celiac. She explains how patients must identify hidden gluten sources in ingredients like dextrin and malt, and why cornmeal or corn flour products may be contaminated. Blom outlines the risks of cross-contamination and dining out challenges, emphasizing whole gluten-free grains over processed products that lack fortification.Dr. Maria Ines Pinto-Sánchez, a gastroenterologist at Hamilton Health Sciences and director of the Celiac Clinic at McMaster University, explains why celiac is called a chameleon disease. She notes that about 30 percent of patients present with gastrointestinal symptoms, while others may have brain fog, fatigue, or anemia. She describes how TTG antibodies plus total IgA are used for screening, with positive results requiring endoscopy and biopsies for confirmation. Dr. Pinto-Sánchez emphasizes that patients should not start a gluten-free diet before testing. She discusses ongoing monitoring including TTG levels, bone density, and nutrient deficiencies.For physicians, the discussion highlights the need for a low threshold when testing TTG antibodies in patients with unexplained fatigue, brain fog, or gastrointestinal symptoms. Both guests stress the importance of completing diagnostic testing before patients begin a gluten-free diet and arranging early dietitian referral.Comments or questions?

Today's episode is one of the most important conversations we've had on My DPC Story. As of July 4th, we are standing at a true inflection point for Direct Primary Care—and for every physician, employer, broker, advocate and patient who believes primary care should be personal, accessible, and free from insurance middlemen.In this special session, I'm joined by Jay Keese, Executive Director of the Direct Primary Care Coalition, who has spent more than a decade at the front lines in Washington, DC. Together, we break down what HR 1—the major tax bill signed into law this year—actually means for DPC. This includes:The historic win: HSAs are now fully compatible with Direct Primary Care for the first time ever.What patients can do starting January 1: Use tax-free HSA dollars to pay for DPC memberships without losing HSA eligibility.How this changes the landscape: New opportunities with employers, brokers, high-deductible plans, and even ACA bronze/catastrophic plans.What stays the same, what's evolving, and what rulemaking from the IRS will finalize.What's coming next: How DPC can scale responsibly and sustainably as demand accelerates.If you've ever wondered how policy actually becomes reality—or what the future of DPC looks like on a national scale—you'll want to listen closely. This episode is equal parts celebration, clarification, and a roadmap for what comes next.Learn about healthcare for your own family and about health shares today!

RU6: STEVEN REISNER ON THE DANCE OF THE OCCULT & UNCONSCIOUS IN FREUD https://renderingunconscious.substack.com/p/ru6-steven-reisner-on-the-dance-of Rendering Unconscious episode 6. This episode of Rendering Unconscious is a lecture by Dr. Steven Reisner “On the Dance of Occult and Unconscious in Freud” given at Morbid Anatomy Museum, NYC, October 2016, as part of a lecture series hosted by Dr. Vanessa Sinclair on Psychoanalysis, Art & the Occult. In this lecture, Dr. Reisner explores Freud's interest in the occult and its implications for psychoanalytic theory. Reisner argues that Freud's curiosity extended beyond sexuality to include phenomena beyond sensory perception. He discusses Freud's experiments with telepathy and thought transference, emphasizing the importance of integrating denied knowledge. Reisner also highlights Freud's cautious approach to disseminating such knowledge, balancing scientific rigor with public perception. Additionally, Reisner links Freud's theories to contemporary issues like resistance to knowledge and the impact of narcissistic or traumatized parents on their children's sensitivity to occult phenomena. This talk was first presented at a conference organized by Dr. Vanessa Sinclair and Carl Abrahamsson, exploring the intersections of Psychoanalysis, Art & the Occult, held in London, May 2016. The Fenris Wolf 9 is a book of collected papers from this conference anthologized by Sinclair and Abrahamsson. https://amzn.to/3XXcwnd Steven Reisner, PhD is a psychoanalyst and political activist in New York.
