Episode 95: Simple Medicine
Wouldn’t it be great to make Medicine, well….SIMPLE? Our guest this week has authored a book to help make “self diagnosis” more accurate instead of scaring you with those misleading and frightening Google searches.
Dr. Rob Barkett, MD is a self proclaimed “ grizzled veteran” of 27 years in Internal Medicine and second generation physician. Over the past couple years, he noticed patients struggling with worsening access to adequate medical care. Meanwhile as they sought out advice on the web, they were getting horrible and incorrect information on their conditions. Dr. Barkett noticed as well, worsening communications amongst healthcare providers that has been breaking down and affecting patient care outcomes.
Thus was the genesis of his book Simple Medicine!
For the nonphysician, Dr. Barkett’s book lets you review your medical conditions in a concise manner and know where to go next. It chronicles the changes in primary care medicine over the past 50 years, the obstacles with the current system and he offers up some practical tips for up and coming physicians.
We have a great time discussing ( AND RANTING) some of the concerns about the current Primary Care situation and how patients can advocate for themselves.
