47 - Implementing AI in the Medical Practice

Dr. Kevin Mailo is joined by physician and entrepreneur Dr. Amjed (AJ) Kadhim-Saleh. AJ has a remarkable story to share because he is not only a family physician in Toronto who built his own clinic in his second year of residency, but an AI entrepreneur as well. He and his wife are the founders of Pippen, an AI technology specifically designed to ease the administrative notes burden of physicians. He tells Kevin all about how it works and why it will revolutionize physician lives.Dr. Kadhim-Saleh describes how building and managing his own clinic from the ground up was a big challenge that added an extra administrative burden to his days. He says that one of the largest unpaid administrative burdens is one that faces all physicians: taking patient notes. The extra time drain from that pushed him towards burnout. So he and his wife created an AI that works in the background of patient conversations, transcribes, and takes notes. It frees physicians from being stuck to a screen taking notes instead of facing patients and conversing and eases the burden. AJ describes the potential of AI for physicians to Kevin, explaining all the ways in which it is already making their lives easier and the ways it will be incorporated into practices and clinics in the future. –About Dr. AJ (Amjed) Kadhim-Saleh:AJ is a community family physician and clinic owner in Toronto.
