Whistleblower Holiday Cheer 2023!

‘Twas the night before Christmas

And all through the night,

Biden's pet puppies

Were ready to bite!

 

The Dems will run Biden

GOP will have Trump

While most of the nation

Want both of them dumped!

 

Biden's their man.

The race is but done,

Yet most of his party

Don’t want him to run.


Biden is fit!

His mind is so keen,

Part of his charm?

His gaffe-making machine!

  

Trump is in charge.

His nomination can’t fail.

But will he be running

From a federal jail?

  

The country’s divided

Will this be our fate?

Who needs peace and love

When we’re nourished by hate?

 

McCarthy was in.

McCarthy was out.

Santos was in.

Now Santos is out!

 

With a few civil trials,

And 91 counts

Trump's polling goes up

And his legal bills mount.

 

The best news for Trump

That fits well with his style

Was the political gift

Of criminal trials!

 

GOP in the House

In search of a speaker,

Thumbs down on Jim Jordan

A microphone seeker.

 

So now we have Johnson

Running the House

Who’s ever heard

Of this mild mannered mouse?

 

Johnson's soft spoken 

Who speaks often of God,

In the GOP’s version

Of a Republican ‘squad’

 

The Middle East is on fire,

And Ukraine is still fighting.

We should all be grateful

To President Biden.


The Colorado Supremes

Bar Trump from Election

He engaged and incited

The insurrection.


Of course, Trump delays,

He will always appeal

Is this what he meant

By The Art of the Deal.

 

So let’s pray for peace

Not more of the same,

 Life need not be

A zero sum game.


Wishing Everyone Joy and Peace!

Why Most Doctors Choose Employment

By
Increasingly, physicians today are employed and most of them willingly so.  The advantages of this employment model, which I will highlight below, appeal to the current and emerging generations of physicians and medical professionals.  In addition, the alternatives to direct employment are scarce, although they do exist.  Private practice gastroenterology practices in Cleveland, for example, are increasingly rare sightings.  Another practice model is gaining ground rapidly on the medical landscape.   Private equity (PE) firms have   been purchasing medical practices who are in need of capital and management oversight.   PE can provide services efficiently as they may be serving multiple practices and have economies of scale.   While these physicians technically have authority over all medical decisions, the PE partners can exert behavioral influences on physicians which can be ethically problematic. For example, if the PE folks reduce non-medical overhead, this may very directly affe

Should Doctors Wear White Coats?

By
Many professions can be easily identified by their uniforms or state of dress. Consider how easy it is for us to identify a policeman, a judge, a baseball player, a housekeeper, a chef, or a soldier.  There must be a reason why so many professions require a uniform.  Presumably, it is to create team spirit among colleagues and to communicate a message to the clientele.  It certainly doesn’t enhance professional performance.  For instance, do we think if a judge ditches the robe and is wearing jeans and a T-shirt, that he or she cannot issue sage rulings?  If members of a baseball team showed up dressed in comfortable street clothes, would they commit more errors or achieve fewer hits?  The medical profession for most of its existence has had its own uniform.   Male doctors donned a shirt and tie and all doctors wore the iconic white coat.   The stated reason was that this created an aura of professionalism that inspired confidence in patients and their families.   Indeed, even today

Electronic Medical Records vs Physicians: Not a Fair Fight!

By
Each work day, I enter the chamber of horrors also known as the electronic medical record (EMR).  I’ve endured several versions of this torture over the years, monstrosities that were designed more to appeal to the needs of billers and coders than physicians. Make sense? I will admit that my current EMR, called Epic, is more physician-friendly than prior competitors, but it remains a formidable adversary.  And it’s not a fair fight.  You might be a great chess player, but odds are that you will not vanquish a computer adversary armed with artificial intelligence. I have a competitive advantage over many other physician contestants in the battle of Man vs Machine.   I can type well and can do so while maintaining eye contact with the patient.   You must think I am a magician or a savant.   While this may be true, the birth of my advanced digital skills started decades ago.   (As an aside, digital competence is essential for gastroenterologists.) During college, I worked as a secretary
