Why medical writing is essential to medicine
I wasn’t as happy as I expected to be when I walked out of the hospital on my last day in medical school. But then again, there was little to celebrate— my last few patients had terminal cancer, a stroke, and end-stage liver disease from alcoholism.

After cancer treatment: It ’s time to reconsider the ringing of the bell
It ’s become a common practice in oncology institutions across North America: A patient completes their prescribed course of treatment and they ring a bell. Usually, it’s a large bell, like one that used to be rung in schools signaling the end of recess. Or it’s a ship’s bell, attached to a wall outside the radiation […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com. Search thousands of physician, PA, NP, and CRNA jobs now. Learn more.

What ’s the biggest lesson of intern year?
Even during medical school, there was always the running joke about getting kidney stones. With the frenetic pace of many rotations, it was always difficult to squeeze in bathroom time, and I suspect many of us adopted the same solution – drink less water. That is certainly how I survived my month on vascular surgery. […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com. Search thousands of physician, PA, NP, and CRNA jobs now. Learn more.

If we don ’t pay now to vaccinate our children, they will pay later
The HPV vaccine saves lives. It does so by reducing a person’s chance of being infected by the human papilloma virus, a virus that causes a whole range of cancers including, most importantly, cervical cancer. Vaccinate your teenage daughter against HPV, and you will increase the chance she will live to old age. Simple as that. […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com.

How to have an exciting death: 5 tips from a palliative care physician

Cancer care costs everyone too much. What can we do about it?
Today’s fee-for-service oncology business model misaligns incentives by rewarding practices for keeping margins and service volumes high — even when it’s wasteful — rather than for optimizing patient outcomes. While discussions of drug pricing dominate the cost control conversation, we, as practitioners, have been abdicating responsibility and missing the opportunity to address cancer’s financial toxicity.
