  • Episode 169: Stigmatizing Sales Pitch

    I usually find this podcast interesting and informative but this episode was garbage. Hiva refers to patients by their diagnoses and it is a 30-min sales pitch for Amazon pharmacy, as if Amazon needs a bigger footprint in our lives. This was gross.

  • “Obesity” Episode Incredibly Stigmatizing

    I take a lot of issue with your episode on “obesity medicine”. Co-opting body positivity language and it “not being about weight loss” is the opposite of what the message is in this podcast. You mention “weight control” and “obesity” as a condition (which it is not-google the definition of the word).The term “obesity” is incredibly stigmatizing in itself, but also weight is very much not in one’s control and many diseases that are correlated with “obesity” are just correlations and not proven to... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

175. Investigating the Role of BMI in Health Care
Q: Why are we still using BMI other than to report?
BMI was adopted as a standard because it is a simple measurement created for resource allocation, without a focus on health metrics.
175. Investigating the Role of BMI in Health Care
Q: Can you expand on what the anti-inflammatory diet looks like?
The best anti-inflammatory diet avoids processed foods, meats, and alcohol, and typically leans towards a vegan diet.
173. Heads Up on Concussion Treatment
Q: Can you tell me a little bit more about post-concussive syndrome?
Post-concussive syndrome is when symptoms persist beyond a few weeks, affecting various areas such as emotional and cognitive health, and often requires specialized care.
173. Heads Up on Concussion Treatment
Q: If the patient has had a head injury, they've hit their head, and they schedule a telehealth appointment with us, are we able to assess them over telehealth?
Absolutely, telehealth is a great opportunity to assess symptoms and manage care remotely, particularly for patients in challenging circumstances.
173. Heads Up on Concussion Treatment
Q: What can I do to assess these patients? What am I looking for and then where to go from there?
Focus on history and physical exam, particularly neurologic assessment, to identify symptoms and appropriate referral for concussion management.
