    Who Really Counts as a Sports Medicine Doctor?

    What exactly is a sports medicine doctor? The answer turns out to be more complicated than most people realize. In this episode, orthopedic surgeons and a non-operative sports medicine physician (profiles of participants below) tackle a surprisingly controversial question: who gets to use the title, what training matters, and how patients can navigate an increasingly crowded landscape of clinicians treating athletic injuries. The discussion explores fellowship training, collaboration, surgery versus non-surgical care, chiropractors, podiatrists, professional athletes, weekend warriors, and the growing confusion surrounding healthcare titles. One theme emerged repeatedly: Sports medicine is bigger than surgery, bigger than injections, and bigger than any one specialty. The challenge is helping patients understand who is sitting across from them and what training stands behind the title.   SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/podcast FIND AN EXPERT IN OUR DIRECTORIES → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/directories   Host: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/alejandro-badia-md/   Guests: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/mauricio-f-herrera-md/ https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/gayan-poovendran-md/ Kirk Cambell, MD   Producer: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/dana-corriel-md/   Send us a message to tell us what you loved about the show!

    Funny Until Patients Are the Punchline

    In this episode of The Physician Feed, Dr. Jordan Emont takes on one of healthcare social media’s most uncomfortable questions: when does medical humor stop being funny and start becoming harmful? From viral videos mocking patients to the institutional silence that often lets toxic behavior grow an audience, this conversation pulls no punches. Dr. Emont argues that humor absolutely belongs in healthcare, but never at the expense of patients, especially when the jokes target women, anatomy, weight, mental health, or vulnerable moments inside the exam room. The episode moves from online outrage to a deeper reckoning with professionalism, misogyny in medicine, and the power of social media to expose what institutions may prefer to quietly ignore.   SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/podcast FIND AN EXPERT IN OUR DIRECTORIES → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/directories   Participants: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/jordan-emont-md-mph-scm-mscp/   Takeaways: Humor belongs in medicine. Patients should never be the punchline.A viral following doesn’t make a healthcare professional clever. Sometimes it just makes the red flags easier to count.The most dangerous medical content online may come from people wearing credentials.When doctors mock anatomy, weight, mental health, or vulnerability, they aren’t “being edgy.” They’re teaching patients to trust us less.Professionalism online isn’t about being boring. It’s about remembering there are patients watching.Social media didn’t create misogyny in medicine. It gave it a camera, a caption, and 400,000 followers.Institutions love visibility until the wrong person goes viral.The internet can expose what hospitals and medical schools quietly tolerate.Healthcare humor works best when it punches at broken systems, not the people harmed by them.The white coat doesn’t come off just because the ring light turns on.Send us a message to tell us what you loved about the show!
