Dr. Allon Friedman pulls no punches about what he has seen over twenty years in academic medicine. He speaks candidly about the negative impact of DEI ideology on medical education and practice, the erosion of merit-based standards in physician training, and the loss of physician autonomy to massive corporate healthcare systems. He addresses the silence among his colleagues regarding COVID lockdowns and mandates, and tells of the personal cost of speaking up in an environment that discourages it.
We also touch on the use of GLP-1 agonists to treat obesity and other conditions. Learn why Dr. Friedman calls this drug class “a cure for modern living” and why he’s optimistic about their potential to treat multiple diseases.
Medicine needs more physicians like Dr. Friedman—willing to speak up and advocate for the reforms necessary to restore sanity and good patient care.
