    Episode 20 - When Doctors Become Patients

    In this episode of HeART of Medicine, hear Dr. Kohli and Dr. Jazaeri both discuss their own struggles with being patients recently and even joke about how doctors are hypocrites when it comes to following doctor’s orders. This heartfelt episode explores how the “role reversal” of doctors becoming patients impacts both physicians and their patients.  Does it make them better doctors? Should being a patient be taught in medical school? Does it make the system realize that doctors are human and not superhuman?   The physicians talk honestly all aspects of being a patient… from their own loss of control to the “knowing too much” problem to their anxiety and humility and how it has shifted their perspective as physicians. They even cover the challenges of navigating the health system and important lessons learned about medicine that were never taught in medical school. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who has heard the expression “doctors are the worst patients” and for any doctor who has been a patient or any patient who has wondered whether his/her doctor knows what he/she is experiencing.

    Episode 19 - How Thinking outside the Box Can Change Your Life While Also Changing The World

    What if a single infusion could result in lifelong lowering of your cholesterol and reduction of heart disease? What if this infusion could “turn off” a single cholesterol gene through gene editing that didn’t affect any other functions? Sounds like a good sci-fi movie, doesn’t it? Well… it’s the future of medicine and we are a LOT closer than you think. In this incredibly inspiring episode of HeART of Medicine, Cardiologist, TV personality and host of the show Dr. Payal Kohli is joined by Vascular Surgeon Dr. Omid Jazaeri. They both sit down for a “heart to heart” with Dr. Sek Kathiresan, who is the co-founder and CEO of Verve Therapeutics, which is pioneering gene editing technology in Cardiology. Dr. Kathiresan shares the details about the inception of the idea, how he left the “ivory tower” of academic medicine at Harvard Medical School and his challenges and struggles along the way. This episode will change your thinking in so many ways and show you how thinking outside the box can change your life while also changing the world!

    Episode 17 - Should All Doctors Be Required To Do Cognitive Testing?

    The whole world has an opinion on whether President Biden (or any older Presidential candidate) should be required to have mandatory cognitive testing… what’s yours? In this episode of HeART of Medicine, Dr. Payal Kohli and special guest Dr. Scott Humphreys, who is a psychiatrist and a medical director at Colorado Physician Health Program, debate whether doctors should have mandatory, scheduled cognitive testing to be allowed to practice medicine. After all, being a doctor is also a profession where (literally) another person’s life is in your hands! They also debate the pros and the cons of mandatory retirement, “quitting while you’re up” and whether doctors should be held to a different standard than other professions. For example, it may be ok for someone who works at a desk job, but would it ok for a surgeon to have “normal” age-related left-right confusion? Or slower response times? They discuss the challenges (and the hefty price tag) of comprehensive cognitive testing and implementation in medicine and how medicine creates an environment where cognitive issues are exacerbated. Finally, they touch on what happens when someone fails the cognitive test - how do you take away their ability to practice medicine while still preserving their identity as a doctor? This episode humanizes the figure in the white coat and asks “Is Mandatory Retirement Just What The Doctor Ordered?”

    Episode 16 - Has “Cancel Culture” Penetrated Medicine? And Are We Hurting Patients As a Result?

    You won’t want to miss the extra “spicy” episode of HeART of Medicine, where Dr. Payal Kohli and Dr. Omid Jazaeri discuss “cancel culture” and “feedback ninjas” in medicine. Has fear of “cancel culture” created an environment where doctors are afraid to speak up when trainees need feedback to grow and most people just end up looking the other way? Is the feedback process being “weaponized” by medical trainees and is this a generational issue? And does being fearful of giving open feedback whether to trainees or hospital systems cause harm to our patients? Have we taken it too far? In this heated episode, Dr. Payal Kohli shares her personal experience and both doctors discuss how “cancel culture” in medicine could pose a serious harm to the care of patients, to communication and to the growth of medical trainees.

    Episode 15 - Is “Practice Creep” allowing Physicians and PAs/NPs to Practice Beyond the Scope of Training?

    The last time you went to the emergency room or to a doctor’s office, were you surprised to be seen by a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistants/Associate only rather than a physician or a team of people? Does it seem like there are more and more of these types of encounters in medicine, where the doctor isn’t even part of the visit? Historically, the role of a NP and PA had been developed to improve access to healthcare and offload physicians from more of the straightforward patient care tasks in medicine. However, more recently the role of these types of providers, called APPs, has evolved into becoming specialists, addressing new problems independently, managing complex patients and even performing complicated surgical procedures. The APPs can even switch specialities without having to train the way a physician would to switch and in many states, don’t need physician supervision to practice. So where does this leave us… Has this has impacted the care of patients? The trust patients have in the medical system? The cost of care? The access to care? And, is this “fair” to our APPs to expect them to take on so much more their training allowed for - to literally, throw them in the deep end with a “sink or swim” mentality? In this episode, Dr. Kohli and Dr. Jazaeri tackle these difficult question and many more. And… spoiler alert… they even discuss the question at the end of “Why would anyone want to be a physician rather than an NP or PA?”  This is HeART of Medicine episode you won’t want to miss!

    Episode 14 - When It Comes to Health Policy, Are Doctors Irrelevant?

    In this emotionally-charged episode, Dr. Payal Kohli discusses the latest medical-legal-political decisions with her recurring guest Dr. Jazaeri.  Whether it is banning abortions, classifying embryos as children or the safety and efficacy of masking and the COVID vaccines, a series of recent health policy issues have changed the way physicians practice at the bedside. These stones have been thrown into the pond of medicine by politicians and lawyers. But the ripples that have been created have impacted doctors and patients everywhere. Most shocking of all is how these ripples may actually be compromising the credibility of the physician. Dr. Kohli asks the difficult question “When It Comes to Health Policy…Are Doctors Irrelevant?”

    Episode 13 - Why Is Insurance So Confusing? And How Did We Even Get Here?

    HeART of Medicine host Dr. Kohli kicks off the new year with an episode about something nearly every patient and healthcare provider will struggle with (if he/she hasn't already) - navigating the complex world of health insurance! This is especially relevant in January, when it is the most expensive time to consume healthcare, and ironically - many of us consume more healthcare, especially preventive care, at this time due to our New Year’s Resolutions.  In this riveting episode, Drs. Kohli and her recurring guest Dr. Jazaeri highlight the challenges of health insurance and how it directly impacts the health outcomes of patients. They discuss lack of cost transparency in healthcare – how we know exactly what we pay for a box of Cheerios at the grocery store but are left wondering what your doctor’s visit or blood draw or Xray would cost you. And how two doctors giving the exact same care can be reimbursed very differently - a concept that is fundamentally in conflict with a capitalistic society! They have a frank discussion about how patients and healthcare providers are both victims and collateral damage when it comes to healthcare insurance and how we even got here.  This is an episode that elucidates so much about health insurance and its current and future challenges that it is one you will not want to miss!
