    Locum Tenens and Infectious Disease with Allison Nazinitsky, MD

    Dr. Wilner would love your feedback! Click here to send a text! Thanks! Many thanks to Dr. Allison Nazinitsky, a locum tenens infectious disease expert, real estate professional, telemedicine doc, and expert witness. Allison practices infectious disease at a variety of hospitals, including Regional One Health in Memphis, TN, where I work as a Professor of Neurology. I’m always pleased when I see Allison in the Doctor’s Lounge. I know she will be helpful in those difficult cases when patients have neurologic problems as well as infections.  During our 30-minute discussion, Allison shared why she chose infectious disease as her medical specialty. She also explained how she discovered locum tenens and how it has benefited her financially and in terms of work-life balance.  Allison was delighted when she discovered how rewarding each locum tenens assignment can be. Not only was she able to help patients with challenging infections, but her work was always appreciated by the medical teams at different assignments.  We briefly discussed Allison’s expert witness work. If you are interested in this topic, please check out my interview with Dr. Jordan Romano, Episode #131, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOlbxHb2YXA Allison has limited her clinical work to 1-2 weeks/ month, which allows ample time for travel and time with her daughter and other family members. When she’s away, she focuses on work. When she’s home, she’s 100% present. If you are a medical student considering specializing in infectious disease or looking for tips regarding locums in your medical career, you can contact Allison through Doximity or LinkedIn. #locumtenens #locums #infectiousdisease #realeastate Please click "Fanmail" and share your feedback!

    A Trip to Orange Beach-happy and sad...

    Dr. Wilner would love your feedback! Click here to send a text! Thanks! Last week was Fall Break in Memphis, TN, and I had the opportunity to travel for the first time to Orange Beach, Alabama, with my wife and 7-year-old. The miles of white sand were dotted with happy children, vigilant parents, and doting grandparents. It was a heartwarming scene until I realized that many children had their beach trip cancelled.  Why?  Because they had measles! Over 4000 children this year so far, with 451 of them hospitalized, and at least a couple of deaths. Nearly every child was unvaccinated... What could be sadder than watching a child suffer unnecessarily? Measles was eradicated in the United States back in 2000. Now, thanks to those who didn't get vaccinated, it is making a comeback. Which brings me to last week's episode of The Art of Medicine with Dr. Mike Myers who wrote "The Vaccine Bible." Dr. Myers offers down-to-earth information and advice about vaccinations. Please check it out. Next week, one of my favorite people, Dr. Allison Nazinitsky, will talk about her portfolio career as a locum tenens infectious disease specialist, real estate professional, telemedicine doc, and expert witness. Allison's episode will air on October 25, 2026. Please don't miss it! #measles #beach #orangebeach #vaccinations #locums #locumtenens Please click "Fanmail" and share your feedback!

    "The Vaccine Bible:" and why you need it with Michael Myers, MD

    Dr. Wilner would love your feedback! Click here to send a text! Thanks! Many thanks to Michael Myers, MD, for joining me on Episode #174 of The Art of Medicine with Dr. Andrew Wilner. Dr. Myers is a recently retired family physician and author of The Vaccine Bible: A Comprehensive, Commonsense Guide to What Keeps Us Safe from the Flu, Measles, Hepatitis, and More. During our 30-minute discussion, Dr. Myers and I discussed the history of vaccines, their proven efficacy, and the incomprehensible position of anti-vaccers. While not a vaccine expert, Dr. Myers has extensive experience communicating health information to patients. He considers vaccines one of the greatest achievements of modern society. Dr. Myers speculated that vaccines have been so successful in eliminating scourges such as smallpox and polio that many laypeople no longer appreciate the morbidity and lethality of infectious diseases. Even measles, mumps and chickenpox can cause serious suffering and complications. Dr. Myers explained that The Vaccine Bible offers reliable vaccine information and how they combat not only common childhood diseases but serious infections such as COVID-19, rabies, and smallpox.

    Improving the Patient Experience at the Doctor's Office

    Dr. Wilner would love your feedback! Click here to send a text! Thanks! During this brief 10-minute video, I discuss the typical visit to the doctor's office, which begins with a request for payment following by instructions to fill out pages of forms.  First impressions are important, and I think doctors can do better! While payment is important, it doesn't have to be the first interaction. A warm greeting, an expression of concern regarding the patient's health, and a thank you for choosing that particular doctor and arriving on time is an alternative script that can be modified according to the individual circumstances. Couldn't office personnel be trained to offer a little compassion before reaching into the patient's wallet? I also remind the audience of last week's Episode #173 with Susan Landers, MD, where we discussed her new book, "Good Enough is Your Superpower." This discussion is especially pertinent to women physicians who suffer from perfectionism! Next week, I'll talk with Dr. Mike Myers about his new book, "The Vaccine Bible." Dr. Myers, a recently retired family physician, takes the mystery out of vaccines in this down-to-earth resource that includes the history, efficacy, and applicability of vaccinations.

    "Good Enough is Your Superpower" with Susan Landers, MD

    Dr. Wilner would love your feedback! Click here to send a text! Thanks! Many thanks to retired neonatologist Susan Landers, MD, for joining me on Episode #173 of “The Art of Medicine with Dr. Andrew Wilner.” I first spoke to Susan on July 9, 2023, on Episode #89 about her book “So Many Babies.” In her first book she reflected on her career, particularly the daily challenge of work/life balance. Today, we discussed her new book, “Good Enough is Your Superpower: Overcoming Perfectionism for Women by Silencing Your Inner Critic and Setting Boundaries.” Dr. Landers confessed that for the first 15 years of her career, she suffered as a perfectionist. She was unable to silence her “inner critic” that insisted she was not “good enough.” Rather than take pride in a long and productive day at work, she felt she was shortchanging her children or husband. If she spent more time with her family, she felt dissatisfied with herself at work.  For a perfectionist, a seemingly simple task such as arranging a child’s birthday party required addressing so many details that it devolved into an exhausting chore. Dr. Landers concluded that the price of perfectionism is loss of rest and recovery. Dr. Landers eventually discovered effective strategies to silence her inner critic and take pleasure in being “good enough” as a wife, mother, and full-time physician. She provides sage advice to young women to combat perfectionism when facing the dual challenges of a career and family. We also discussed the concepts of “invisible labor” and “emotional load.” According to Dr. Landers, women tend to do more invisible labor and emotional load than men, which increases their overall workload and stress. Dr. Landers is planning a book on preventing osteoporosis. Inspired by her mother’s diagnosis and her own, she has thoroughly researched the topic and wants to share her findings with other women. You can find “Good Enough is Your Superpower” on Amazon here: https://amzn.to/45GTmWy You can also read Dr. Landers weekly newsletter “MomsMatter” on Substack:  https://substack.com/@landersmomsmatter?utm_source=global-search   #motherhood, #worklifebalance, #physicans, #dualcareer, #osteoporosis. #perfectionist #perfectionism Please click "Fanmail" and share your feedback!

    "Dance in a Madhouse" with author and psychiatrist Jess Wright

    Dr. Wilner would love your feedback! Click here to send a text! Thanks! Many thanks to Jess Wright, psychiatrist and author of “Dance in a Madhouse.” Jess is a Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Louisville, where he sees patients, teaches, and does research.  Jess joins several other psychiatrists featured on “The Art of Medicine:” Jesse Gold (Episode #130), Richard Berlin (Episode #99), Awais Aftab (Episode #85), Steve Moffic (Episode #78), and Ronald Pies (Episode #63). Now working part-time, Jess has more time for fiction writing. As a psychiatrist with decades of experience, he incorporates some of his patient experiences into his creative writing.  During our 30-minute discussion, we discussed why Jess writes, how he writes, and his upcoming novels and memoir. We also addressed how the practice of psychiatry has changed since 1905, when his novel “Dance in a Madhouse” takes place.  Jess truly enjoys the intellectual challenge of creative writing and believes it may be a strategy to stave off the intellectual stagnation that can come with retirement and aging!
