    How GPs Think: Clinical Reasoning and Patient-Centred Care with Dr Henri Coombs

    Clinical reasoning sits at the centre of this chat with GP Dr Henri Coombs. We cover the “golden minute,” the ICE model (ideas, concerns, expectations), and how to keep notes rich without stealing time from patients using ambient scribing tools. Henri shares how he balances risk in GP, when to refer to ED, antibiotic stewardship without arguments, and why concise GP letters matter. We also walk a fatigue case step-by-step, including iron, thyroid, sleep, mental health, and when tests help versus hinder. You’ll hear about: Patient-centred consults that actually save time Shared decisions that reduce bounce-backs Ambient documentation (Heidi/Lyrebird) improving note quality Risk tolerance in GP vs ED; red flags that change your plan Fatigue work-up: ferritin, B12/folate, thyroid, vitamin D, CRP (used wisely), sleep Coaching culture, feedback, and teaching registrars without panic referrals Practical discharge/GP letter do’s (short, clear, actionable) Perfect for NP students, ED clinicians, and any GP who wants fewer returns and better follow-up, without longer consults.

    From fast track to telehealth founder : Chris O’Donnell on scaling NP- led care

    What happens when a nurse practitioner stops waiting for the system to change- and builds something better? In this episode, I sit down with Chris O'Donnell, one of Australia’s most successful private practice NPs and the founder of MyWeightLoss Clinic, a nationwide telehealth service. We unpack how Chris scaled from ED Fast Track to 120+ staff, 500,000 patient encounters, and a model of care that delivers medication via Uber Eats. You’ll hear: • Why obesity is a metabolic issue, not a willpower problem • How NP-led telehealth is reshaping chronic disease care • The four pillars of obesity medicine • AI, patient safety, and managing clinical risk remotely This one’s part clinical reasoning, part healthcare rebellion- and all heart.

    From Crackles to Connection: Why Language & Listening Matter - with Dr Haunnah Rheult

    What began as a heart failure lecture during orientation week ended up shifting my entire perspective on patient care. In this episode, Dr. Haunnah Rheault returns-not just to a closed group of students, but back into my life, and now into yours-for anyone to experience the inspiring and knowledgeable human she is. We reflect on the moment she was told, “You’re not on it at all,” by an Aboriginal health worker in Mount Isa, and how that experience inspired her research into health literacy and culturally safe care. Haunnah explores how we communicate-our language, our assumptions, and how we check understanding-and how that can deeply impact whether care is truly received, not just delivered. She also shares openly about a clinical error, showing the kind of vulnerability and reflection that turns a mistake into meaningful growth. We break down heart failure red flags, diagnostic blind spots, and her unforgettable approach to teaching students to “get into the ventricle” to truly understand disease. This conversation goes beyond the textbook-covering clinical reasoning, mentorship, NP-led care models, and the kind of learning that stays with you long after the podcast ends.
