The Pursuit of Health Podcast

In our first Take A Step Back episode, we take the opportunity to look back over and comment on Episodes 1 through 4. Our host, Dr. Fethke, is joined by a first year medical student, Alyssa Shannon, and an experienced practicing pediatrician, Dr. Emily Brown. Together, they reflect on the lessons learned from the first four episodes, including:
Episode 1 - How healthcare has strayed from its original mission and an emphasis on the Patient-Physician relationship,
Episode 2 - The value of Family-centered care and the need to promote creative solutions to address deficits in the healthcare system,
Episode 3 - A need to establish Diagnosis-specific innovative and comprehensive solutions, legitimate Medical Home models, and advancement of care through Evidence-based research,
Episode 4 - The need for consistency and a unified Team Approach in public health guidelines and the valuable role of Education as an entry point into the healthcare system.

This hour long reflection from the frontlines was honest, revealing, and insightful, and the energy of this discussion was extremely captivating and constructive. Our inaugural Take A Step Back episode proved to be a great success. This retrospective format from physicians, young and old, promises to be the glue that will bind future episodes into a collection of works that will Empower our audience.

Next week on Episode 5, Part 1, we are joined by two seasoned physicians to begin a commentary on Payment Models in the current U.S. Healthcare System.
