What happens when AI transforms not only how physicians practice medicine, but also how they build their careers?

Join Dr. Mike Woo-Ming as he welcomes Dr. Rusha Modi In this episode of Bootstrap MD. Dr. Modi discusses why he left traditional medicine and pursued a more personalized model focused on complex, multisystem health concerns, vitality, and major life transitions. He discusses how volume-driven healthcare can overlook patients whose needs extend beyond a single specialty, visit, diagnosis, or conventional treatment target.

The conversation then explores AI’s growing influence on healthcare, physician workflows, entrepreneurship, and patient engagement. Dr. Modi encourages physicians to understand their economic value, diversify income, learn practical AI tools, map their workflows, and take an active role in technology implementation rather than allowing changes to happen around them.

Three Actionable Takeaways:

• Understand Your Value: Physicians should understand their economic and professional value rather than assuming self-advocacy conflicts with patient advocacy. Know what your work contributes, negotiate thoughtfully, and avoid allowing healthcare systems to undervalue your expertise.
• Learn to Use AI: You do not need to become a programmer to benefit from AI. Start with practical tasks such as scheduling and administrative work, learn where the technology succeeds or fails, and gradually explore how it can improve your clinical workflow.
• Lead the Transition: Physicians should not remain passive as AI transforms healthcare. Map your clinical and administrative workflows, identify tasks likely to be automated, develop expertise that adds human value, and participate in decisions about how technology is implemented.
