An operative field of dreams
I am in a select crowd. I have been fortunate enough to help some special people in their time of pain and heartache and bewilderment, facing operation or cancer or other ailments. I was fortunate to even get into medical school when I did; my grades weren ’t too good, and no doubt in my mind […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com.

You got the COVID-19 vaccine? I have vaccine envy
I admit it: I have vaccine envy. It’s that feeling of jealousy, disappointment, or resentment you feel when someone else gets the vaccine for COVID-19 — and you can’t.
I’m not proud of it. We should all be celebrating the astounding speed with which multiple effective and safe COVID-19 vaccines were developed. Millions of people are receiving them daily, bringing the increasingly real possibility of herd immunity closer day by day.
So, I should just be patient, right? It’s not easy.
Vaccine envy is inevitable
Current evidence suggests vaccination could save your life and those around you while helping daily life ...

5 Reasons Why Artificial Intelligence Won ’t Replace Physicians
Artificial intelligence-based solutions are changing healthcare for the better. We saw it coming over the past years, and as COVID-19 has put an extra accent on the use of such tools, that initial wave grew into a tsunami. But would this mean that medical professionals are not needed anymore? Of course not. Here are five fundamental reasons why A.I. won’t replace doctors – and it never will.
The medical community should not fall for the fear-mongering around A.I. Despite the wide-scale automatisation and digitalisation, humans will always be needed for specific tasks and, according to a new study, the use of robo...

Going to the molecular level to think big about cancer
In the next few years, the biggest advancements in cancer care may occur at the smallest level, the level of individual molecules. By imaging individual molecules on cancer cells, malignancies can be detected when they are smaller and more easily treated. Targeting individual molecules has also allowed groundbreaking new therapies with great precision, increasing the […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com.

A North Carolina Pediatric Hospitalist Tells Her Pandemic Story to Senator Richard Burr: Thirteen Months (And Counting) In Medical Whistle-blower Hell - Courtesy Of Private Equity/For-Profit Healthcare And Cruelly-Indifferent/Morally-Bankrupt State & Federal Oversight
Author ' s Note: I cannot " sound-bite " the last year - and perhaps it ' s time to write the book. Scroll about half-way down to read the letter to Senator Burr. The bottom line is that for thethird time in 23 years, as a Pediatrician staffing a community hospital, I was fired " with-out cause " immediately after intervening in a neonatal ( " bad baby " ) case, rescuing the situation/ " saving " the baby, and reporting it INTERNALLY to Peer Review. NO discussion. NO recourse. NO review. A total cover-up. And EVERY SINGLE TIME I ' ve asked the state/Federal government to enfor...

“Separated by less than a month (Boseman on August 28th and Ginsburg on September 18th) and both due to gastrointestinal cancers (Boseman had colon cancer and Ginsburg had pancreatic cancer), the situations of Ginsburg ’s and Boseman’s deaths is emblematic of the racial disparity in American health outcomes.

I have strong reservations regarding medication advertising to the public
Recently, there have been several TV advertisements on cancer treatments that may extend life. They report survival data that can mislead cancer victims to the extent of possible longevity. Additionally, they present a false picture of how life can be spent. I have strong reservations regarding medication advertising to the public.

New Cato Research on Immigration and Espionage
Alex NowrastehCato released my newpolicy analysis about espionage and immigration. It is the culmination of many months worth of original research to meticulously document and quantify every espionage and espionage ‐related criminal conviction in the United States from 1990–2019 – including those convicted of economic espionage, theft of trade secrets, and other related commercial crimes. Although my goal was to find each one, I undoubtedly missed a few, but the sample provided here is still large enough for analysis. Espionage is a serious issue that impacts American national security and that freq...

What ’s behind racial disparities in kidney disease?
My first exposure to kidney disease and its impact on communities of color occurred when I was in high school. An elderly neighbor, who was like a grandfather to me, had been diagnosed with kidney failure. At about the same time, my older first cousin, who had children about my age, was starting dialysis due to kidney failure attributed to hypertension. She would go on to get a kidney transplant. If you ask any African American, he or she is likely to have at least one relative with kidney disease requiring dialysis or transplantation.
Disparities in kidney disease not noted in medical literature until early 1980s

Merging the wisdom of pain medicine and addiction medicine to optimize outcomes
Family lore recalls that my grandfather, succumbing to stomach cancer in the mid-1960s, “died addicted to morphine.” Decades before the AIDS crisis sparked the hospice and palliative care movements, the confluences of pain, dependence, and addiction were confused and regrettably moralized. Since then, the science has excelled, but our clinical understanding of how pain and […]Find jobs at Careers by KevinMD.com. Search thousands of physician, PA, NP, and CRNA jobs now. Learn more.
