Fixing the system and prioritizing patient care

from The Podcast by KevinMD

Join us for a thought-provoking episode as we sit down with Cindy Rubin, a pediatrician and breastfeeding medicine specialist. Cindy opens up about the challenges faced by physicians in the current health care system, particularly the constraints of 15-minute appointments and the impact on patient care. She shares her personal journey of transitioning from being on time to running behind in order to provide comprehensive care and build meaningful relationships with her patients and their families. We discuss the added strain caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the need for systemic changes in scheduling, staffing, and compensation models to prioritize quality care. Don't miss this candid conversation as we explore the need for a reimagined health care system that values the well-being of patients and physicians alike. Cindy Rubin is a pediatrician and breastfeeding medicine specialist. She shares her story and discusses her KevinMD article, "We need to stop blaming the doctors."
