@btabarsimd yes, I will say that it’s really slow for some reason.

I just tried Agent Mode with ChatGPT for Clinicians. This is unbelievable.
I might make a video of this… wild.

Been using ChatGPT for clinicians for the past 24 hours… OpenEvidence is cooked. Nothing personal. Just the facts.

@abc15 It seems like we are hearing about these incidents more and more. Do you have data around this?

And vision. Imagine being a primary care doctor and taking care of patients and their “bodies” when they can’t see or chew their food.

Dental should not be separate from medical insurance. Gum disease is linked to heart disease.

@DocDifferently I would say policy vs toxic partisan politics

@ProfMarkTaubert True… always balance is needed in everything.

I sat with this for a long time before finding the courage to write it.
My essay “Echoes of Escape: Healing Refugees, Healing Myself,” has been accepted for publication in the Annals of Family Medicine (July/August 2026).
My hope is that it resonates with others carrying a story they haven’t yet found words for.
Thank you @AnnFamMed for this opportunity and those who encouraged me to share my reflections. 🤍

@kevinmd Thank you for sharing. I think it’s important to ask these questions if hospital and clinic administrators and demand solutions.

Female doctors get their patients better outcomes. Female doctors do not outlive their male colleagues. The trade is not an accident.
Dr. Noemi Adame, board-certified pediatrician and founder of Culver Pediatric Center, sat with this on The Podcast by KevinMD.
The data she walks through:
Female physicians demonstrate better patient outcomes across multiple fields of medicine.
Portal data shows patients and staff make 25% more requests of female primary care doctors than male. Same panel. Same hours on the schedule. 25% more inbox work. Unpaid. Unrewarded.
A JAMA article found that while women generally outlive men, female physicians do not get that longevity benefit. The added stress of being a female doctor may be why.
When Adame was a hospitalist, she noticed staff and patients interacted differently with her than with her male colleagues. When she was in corporate medicine clinic, she was the last one out the door, often by hours. She blamed herself. She asked her employer for a time flow study, certain it would prove she was inefficient. The EHR super-user who shadowed her found the opposite. She was faster than average. Her notes were so thorough a scribe would have been a downgrade. The system was the variable.
Her playbook for holding a boundary in medicine, worth bookmarking:
Ask if the request is fair to both parties or only to one.
Replace "I'm sorry" with "Thank you for waiting."
Do not bend a rule once, because the negotiation never ends.
Tell the patient exactly what you are giving up so the trade is visible.
The structural problem she names is sharper than the burnout conversation usually allows. Female physicians are not burning out because they cannot keep up. They are burning out because the system asks them to do more for the same pay and rewards them with shorter lives.
Listen to the full conversation on The Podcast by KevinMD. Link in the replies.
For female physicians: at what point in your career did you realize the workload was unequal, not your time management?

Romina Khazali and Behzad Yazdani Remain in Legal Limbo in Shiraz Prison Amid Health Concerns
It was learned on 6 April 2026 that Mrs. Romina Khazali and her husband, Mr. Behzad Yazdani, a Baha’i couple detained in Shiraz, remain in custody at Adelabad Prison more than a week after their arrest with no official information available regarding the nature of any charges against them or their legal status.
Mrs. Khazali, an artist, and Mr. Yazdani, a translator and editor, were arrested at their home in Shiraz by intelligence agents on 28 and 29 March this year.
Mrs. Khazali is in poor health. She had recently undergone stomach surgery prior to her arrest and suffers from severe migraines, eye pressure, and chronic back pain. Over the past week, she has been permitted only a single brief phone call with her family. Authorities have denied further contact and visits, while also withholding information about her current condition, heightening concerns for her welfare among her family.
Mrs. Khazali was also the primary caregiver for her elderly parents, whose physical and emotional condition has deteriorated since her detention. The couple’s two teenage children are experiencing significant distress in the absence of their parents. In addition, the confiscation of the family’s electronic devices at the time of arrest has severely disrupted the children’s online education, which they had been pursuing under wartime conditions.
The closure of the Revolutionary Court in Shiraz has prevented the family from pursuing legal follow-up or obtaining updates on the case.

It's been more than 45 days since Iran's internet went dark. And the Iranian regime is burning through MILLIONS per day to keep 92 million people offline.
Why spend so much to silence your own country? Because when you control the internet, you control the story. When a government won't let its OWN PEOPLE speak, question the narrative the outside world is hearing.

Do not confuse online visibility with expertise.
Someone may have a ton of followers
on social media.
That does not mean they have expertise in a particular topic.
A large following only means they have mastered the ability to grab attention on social media.
There is no substitute for extensive training and real life experience working in the trenches.
