    I Was One Month From Finishing Residency. Then I Quit.

    What happens when the qualities that make someone an independent thinker collide with a medical culture built around hierarchy? In this episode of Kaufman Chronicles, Dr. Noah Kaufman goes back to medical school and residency, recounting the trouble that followed him as a trainee who struggled to stay quiet when something felt wrong. There was an arrest during his first year of medical school, a confrontation after he questioned a senior resident’s patient care, and even punishment for asking a question others considered taboo. But the story builds toward the final weeks of residency, when an infamously intimidating pediatric cardiothoracic surgeon publicly berated Kaufman during rounds. After years of exhaustion, humiliation, loss, and relentless medical training, something in him snapped. The confrontation nearly derailed his career, and when he was told he would have to repeat a rotation, Kaufman did the unthinkable with graduation only a month away: he quit. It is a raw conversation about the culture of medical training, the cost of refusing to perform obedience, and why learning to say “I don’t know” may be one of the most important skills a physician can possess.   DETAILS & VIDEO VERSION: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/i-quite-one-month-from-finishing/ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/podcast FIND AN EXPERT IN OUR DIRECTORIES → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/directories   Host: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/noah-kaufman-md/   Producer: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/dana-corriel-md/   Send us a message to tell us what you loved about the show!

    Gunshots, Ninja Warrior & One Very Strange Night in the ER

    In this episode of The Kaufman Chronicles, Noah Kaufman, MD, takes us inside one of those ER nights that seems almost too strange to be real. It begins with an unforgettable foreign-body case that sends a patient from the emergency department straight to the operating room, then pivots into a Level 1 trauma as a man with a gunshot wound to the chest is rushed through the doors. In the middle of the chaos, the patient suddenly recognizes Noah from American Ninja Warrior, breaking the tension in a way no one in the trauma bay expects. What follows is a wild, funny, and revealing look at the collision between Noah’s life on television and his life as an emergency physician, and at the strange ways people find comfort, familiarity, and even humor in moments of genuine crisis.   SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/podcast FIND AN EXPERT IN OUR DIRECTORIES → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/directories   Host: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/noah-kaufman-md/ Producer: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/dana-corriel-md/   Send us a message to tell us what you loved about the show!

    The Independent ER Doctor: Rethinking Where Acute Care Happens

    After more than two decades in emergency medicine, Dr. Noah Kaufman reached a point many physicians will recognize: the medicine still mattered deeply, but the system surrounding it had become increasingly difficult to tolerate. In this episode of Modern Practice Playbook, Dr. Kaufman explains why he left traditional emergency medicine to build an independent, direct-pay model that sits somewhere between urgent care and the emergency department. He shares how his Denver practice combines transparent pricing, physician-level acute care, in-office diagnostics and procedures, and technology designed to reduce charting and administrative burden. He also addresses one of the biggest criticisms of direct-pay medicine—whether it risks creating a two-tiered system—and describes the financial, operational, and psychological hurdles physicians should understand before attempting to build something similar. His experience raises a larger question for physicians frustrated with the healthcare system: What becomes possible when, instead of trying to survive the existing model, you build a different one?

    The Biggest “I Don’t Know” in Medicine

    Dr. Noah Kaufman remembers COVID from a place few people experienced firsthand: inside emergency departments scattered across the country, where answers were scarce, colleagues were getting sick, patients were dying, and physicians were expected to keep showing up anyway. He recalls flying nearly empty planes as an essential worker, caring for overwhelming numbers of patients with depleted staff, wrestling with the uncertainty surrounding a new disease and new vaccines, and the night he couldn't save a father whose teenage son turned his grief toward Noah. Years later, Kaufman looks back at what it meant to practice medicine when even the doctors didn't know what came next, and why he believes COVID permanently changed emergency medicine, the physician-patient relationship, and his own willingness to say three words physicians aren't always comfortable saying: “I don't know.”   SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/podcast FIND AN EXPERT IN OUR DIRECTORIES → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/directories   Host: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/noah-kaufman-md/   Producer: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/dana-corriel-md/   Send us a message to tell us what you loved about the show!

    What’s in Your Patient Agreement? Two Ways One Plastic Surgeon Protects His Practice.

    Building a private practice involves far more than choosing an EHR, hiring staff, and bringing patients through the door. Plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Hall learned much of the business of medicine by building his own practice alongside his wife, a physician assistant—and making plenty of mistakes along the way. In this episode of Modern Practice Playbook, Dr. Hall shares two less-obvious policies his practice developed with legal counsel: a patient authorization designed to give the practice more room to respond to online reviews without running afoul of HIPAA, and an arbitration provision intended to establish a process for handling disputes before they arise. His approach raises a larger question for independent physicians: How much thought have you given to protecting the practice you worked so hard to build?   Disclaimer: Dr. Hall is describing practices used in his own practice, not providing legal advice. Physicians considering similar policies should consult qualified counsel regarding applicable federal and state law.   EPISODE AUDIO and VIDEO: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/protecting-the-practice/ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/podcast FIND AN EXPERT IN OUR DIRECTORIES → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/directories   Guest: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/jason-hall-md-facs/ Producer: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/dana-corriel-md/   Takeaways: Online reviews create a unique problem for physicians. Patients can publicly discuss an encounter, while HIPAA can significantly restrict how a physician responds. Dr. Hall explains the authorization his practice developed with an attorney to address that imbalance.Risk planning can begin before a dispute exists. Hall discusses why his practice incorporated an arbitration provision into its patient agreement and how he thinks about establishing expectations before elective surgery.The boring paperwork may be part of the business strategy. Building a practice isn't only about revenue, staffing, marketing, and patient care. Agreements, policies, and risk-management decisions can have an enormous impact when something eventually goes wrong.Send us a message to tell us what you loved about the show!

    He Carried Her Through Yosemite. Ten Years Later, Her Father Found Him.

    What happens when an emergency physician has no trauma bay, no team waiting beside him, and almost none of the tools he normally relies on? In this episode of Kaufman Chronicles, Dr. Noah Kaufman tells two extraordinary stories about taking emergency medicine into the wild. At a tiny Lake Tahoe ski clinic, he improvises an EKG from a single monitor lead and realizes a skier with chest pain is having a massive heart attack. Then, in Yosemite, screams from the forest lead him to a critically injured little girl struck by falling rock. With no ambulance beside him and no time to waste, Kaufman scoops her into his arms and runs through the woods toward the clinic, unsure whether she will survive. He eventually moves on, as emergency physicians so often must. Ten years later, her father tracks him down with news Kaufman never expected to hear. Along the way, Noah reflects on instinct, improvisation, the emotional armor emergency physicians develop, and what decades spent inside chaos can both give a doctor and slowly take away.   SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/podcast FIND AN EXPERT IN OUR DIRECTORIES → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/directories   Host: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/noah-kaufman-md/   Producer: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/dana-corriel-md/   Send us a message to tell us what you loved about the show!

    The Physician Story Her Hospital Didn’t Want to Hear: Dr. Recinos

    Homelessness. The devastating loss of a brother. A white coat that tells only part of the story. Dr. Sheryl Recinos became a physician carrying a past that few of the people around her could see. She had experienced homelessness, endured profound personal loss after her brother ended his life, and eventually decided to put the story of her life into a book. Telling it, however, raised another set of questions. In this deeply personal episode of Stories from Inside Healthcare, Dr. Recinos recounts the experiences that shaped the physician she became, her decision to make the most difficult parts of her life public, and the complicated response she encountered within healthcare when her story did not fit comfortably inside the traditional image of a doctor. Her journey opens a larger conversation about vulnerability, belonging, and how much of themselves physicians are truly allowed to bring into the institutions where they work.   SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/podcast FIND AN EXPERT IN OUR DIRECTORIES → https://www.doctorsonsocialmedia.com/directories   Guest: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/sheryl-recinos-md-maed-mfa/   Producer: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/dana-corriel-md/ Watch the video: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/dr-recinos-story/ Send us a message to tell us what you loved about the show!

    From Sideline to Cyberspace

    Will AI replace physicians? The experts in this discussion think that's the wrong question. In this episode, leaders in sports medicine, robotics, digital health, and artificial intelligence explore what happens when patients arrive with wearable data, AI-generated insights, predictive injury models, and questions that didn't exist a few years ago. The conversation covers robotic surgery, digital twins, athlete monitoring, predictive analytics, ChatGPT, wearable technology, and the rapidly changing relationship between patients and healthcare professionals. One reality became clear: The patient already has access to AI. The challenge for medicine is learning how to work alongside it. Because the future may not belong to physicians who compete with technology. It may belong to physicians who know how to interpret it, challenge it, and use it to deliver better care.   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/   Guest: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/stefano-a-bini-md/ Martin Roche, MD   Producer: https://doctorsonsocialmedia.com/dana-corriel-md/     Send us a message to tell us what you loved about the show!
