Manage episode 450569912 series 3450378
Today, I jump into healthcare with Dr. Cameron Roth, an orthopedic surgeon specializing in shoulder, elbow, and hand surgery, focusing on the "CARE" in healthcare. The episode emphasizes the importance of leadership, communication, and humanity in the medical industry.
Together, we discuss Dr. Roth's journey into medicine, the impact of specialized training, and the essential role of empathy, leadership, and teamwork in patient care. Dr. Roth opens up about the challenges of building trust and transparency with patients, the delicate balance between medical expertise and human compassion, and the highs and lows of life as a healthcare professional—whether in elective or emergency surgeries.
The conversation shifts to the future of medicine, touching on the role of artificial intelligence and the fear that it might one day replace the irreplaceable human connection in healthcare. Dr. Roth emphasizes that patient care is more than just science- it’s an art requiring emotional intelligence and understanding. We also explore the influence of social media on people’s perceptions of health and the rising trend of seeking diagnoses as a form of validation.
Dr. Roth offers inspiring advice for anyone considering a career in medicine, underscoring the personal rewards of a profession that allows you to change lives daily.
