There are patients I have lost to suicide whose absence stays with me in ways that are difficult to articulate. But there are also quieter losses: patients who did not improve, who stopped coming, or whose stories felt unfinished in ways that are harder to define. — article written by Dr. Devina Wadhwa BSC(Pharm), MD doctorsonsocialmedia.com/the-quiet-grie… via @somedocs

There are patients who leave your care in every official way. Their appointments stop. Their charts close. Their names disappear from the schedule. Then, they return in quieter ways. A current patient says something familiar. A conversation from months ago resurfaces. A case that never fully resolved keeps taking up space in the background. Today’s published piece, written by Dr. Devina Wadhwa, explores the grief in medicine that rarely gets called grief. The patients who did not improve. The relationships that never quite formed. The conversations that ended without closure.The version of care you wanted to give and could not. We often call the weight of clinical work burnout. But sometimes, part of it is loss. And medicine gives physicians very few places to put it. To read this article in full, visit our magazine. We will also provide the link in the comment section below.

@MattZirwas @tylercowen @DrCorriel would be interesting to cover this viewpoint for doctorsonsocialmedia.com/magazine

Don’t go to medical school. That’s the caveat I’d add to this very good piece from @tylercowen. He says go into biomed. He’s right. Just don’t do it by becoming a doctor. I was a residency director for 10 years. I’m a physician building with AI now. Here’s where this goes. Start med school today and you see your first patient independently in 7 years. That is an eternity of AI progress. During those 7 years, AI will get VERY good at gathering the history, reviewing the chart and labs, pulling the relevant literature, and handing the doctor a ranked differential with a proposed plan. The doc and patient decide and fine-tune. The AI explains it to the patient and writes the orders. It’s a more fun job. We do the interesting part and skip the grind. It is also a job we will need far fewer people to do. If each thinking doctor gets 5-10x more productive, the math is simple. We need maybe 50% fewer of them. That assumes cost craters and demand explodes. If it doesn’t, we’re looking at 90% fewer. So who do we keep. The best of the established experts, or the new grads? And did I mention the established experts make the rules? The hands-on people are safer for longer. Nurses, PTs, surgeons, lab techs. You cannot 10x a pair of hands. The thinkers don’t get replaced. They get leveraged. And leverage that strong means the door closes behind the people already inside.

The country pauses for one day. Families carry the cost for years. Memorial Day asks us to remember the fallen, and the remembrance matters deeply. Healthcare often sees what remains after the ceremonies end. The chronic pain. The fractured sleep. The spouse who became a caregiver. The children raised on stories. The veteran whose body still carries the record of service. Today’s published piece looks at the living aftermath of sacrifice, and why remembrance should extend to the people still carrying its weight. The fallen deserve honor. The living aftermath deserves attention. Find it in our magazine. We’ll also link it below.

Article: doctorsonsocialmedia.com/the-course-you…

Some of the most valuable knowledge in healthcare is currently living inside favors. The colleague text that becomes a tutorial. The “quick question” that eats half an hour. The lecture people loved and then never see again. The patient explanation you have refined so well it could teach a room. That is expertise leaking out in fragments. Healthcare professionals spend years developing frameworks, explanations, and judgment that people genuinely need. Then much of it disappears into inboxes, DMs, hallway conversations, and one-time calls. This piece makes the case for turning serious expertise into something structured, searchable, and scalable. Because in a world where misinformation is polished, confident, and everywhere, serious knowledge needs better packaging. Your best ideas should not have to keep sneaking out through favors. We recently debuted Rock Your Course, was built by our founder to help professionals our there actually build those courses, and get it out. Today’s published article focuses on course-creating for professionals. We’ll link it below.

Just finished editing the intro for our new series called Modern Practice Playbook, where practice owners can share small tips and tricks that make it easier to practice medicine today. What do you think? It’s the newest in the @SoMeDocs series section - Like Netflix, But for Healthcare.

One doctor. $45 million. Botox claims. Luxury trips. A Cybertruck. A 17th-century crossbow. And somehow, the rest of the profession gets dragged into the reputational wreckage. When a physician abuses the white coat, the public rarely sees one bad actor. It sees “doctors.” That should bother every physician practicing honestly. Our upcoming article asks a messy question: how much damage can one doctor’s fraud do to the trust the rest of medicine is still trying to earn back? Weigh in: when a physician commits massive fraud, does the profession have a responsibility to speak louder? You never know when we’re going to reach out for a quote. And will never know how brilliant you are, unless you leave that comment.

Congressman Murphy’s call for better medical school screening, including the idea that physicians should be prepared to practice full-time for 20–25 years, has clearly hit a nerve across the medical community. I think the conversation deserves more than a comment thread. The deeper question is whether we’re looking at a physician “selection” problem, or a healthcare system that is making long-term clinical practice increasingly difficult to sustain. I’d welcome the chance to discuss this directly with @RepGregMurphy in a respectful documentary-style conversation for @SoMeDocs. Because if we’re going to talk about the future of the physician workforce, physicians should probably be in the room. Help us circulate this before someone decides we need a Hollywood doctor to get anyone’s attention.
