As yet another burned out physician with nothing other than thinly-veiled pharma-driven biased research to inform practice, I lose more and more hope every day for our field and our collective professional future and ability to truly help people as we all initially intended- in their best interest. Thank you for being a brave and eloquent voice in analyzing and calling out specific examples of the corruption they has so insidiously infiltrated our field. Awareness leads to knowledge, and knowledge leads to the power to change things to be more in line with the ethics most of us hold.

There is a lot to be desired from our healthcare system and certainly we need to be questioning how we can better serve our patients. However, this growing hate sentiment toward NIH research and researchers by the host leaves a foul taste. It’s clear the host projects his own vendetta against his inability to gain such funding, under the premise that the NIH failed. Patients and their communities have benefited greatly from this work, it questions his credibility that he would be so dismissive of decades of progress and the backs of those who got us here. The podcast comes across more like a rant of grievances and lacks practical solutions for such healthcare shortcomings.

Brilliant and so useful to us here in the trenches! Thanks

As a civilian working in Death Care, I’m grateful for this podcast. An important aspect of the scientific method is to poke holes in all hypotheses in order to strengthen the robustness of a conclusion. Thank you

Thank you soooo much for being the voice of courage and reason!

Love this show for the rational, intelligent discussion of issues involving medicine. My background is in math, not medicine, so some parts can go over my head, but not too badly. I just can’t say enough about how much we need to talk about what the evidence is actually telling us, and that is exactly what this podcast does.

Disappointed in the ACCP decision. Thanks for the enlightening discussion, as usual.

Please don’t censor yourself. Even when you use salty language you are SO eloquent. We love your intellect and sense of humor. You say what we think SO well!!

Thank you, Vinay and John!!!

I’m a nurse, and I find this podcast so incredibly educational. Nurses can 100% benefit from this!
