BS Free MD with Drs. May and Tim Hindmarsh - Medicine, Life, Family, Physician, Doctor, Healthcare, Medical History

Drs. Kirk and Kimberly Milhoan are an amazing physician couple with a unique combination of expertise in Pediatric Cardiology and Pediatric Anesthesia. They have experienced what happens when speaking out against the status quo on Covid therapeutics , and what that cost is. Kirk tells of how he became subject to investigation by the Hawaii Board of Medicine for a conversation he had regarding Covid therapies. Throughout the pandemic they began to question the evolving push of vaccines over outpatient therapies. Kirk also has concerns with what is happening to children’s cardiac health as a result of using an emergency use injection therapy in our young, with no long term data. They have been actively involved in Global Covid Summit and proponents of the sanctity of the physician-patient relationship, recognizing natural immunity from Covid and avoidance of doing more harm than good with Covid mRNA technologies. Kirk Milhoan has a BA in Biology and Chemistry and a PhD in Cardiovascular Physiology and Pharmacology, focusing on cellular mechanisms of cardiac inflammation, specifically the role of platelet activating factor in activating the myocardial inflammation process. He received his medical degree, Magna Cum Laude, from the Jefferson Medical College of the Thomas Jefferson University. He completed his pediatric residency at David Grant Medical Center at Travis Air Force Base and pediatric cardiology fellowship at San Diego Children’s Hospital/UCSD. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatrics in Pediatrics and Pediatric Cardiology, and a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology and American Academy of Pediatrics. He served thirteen years in the United States Air Force as a pediatric cardiologist and flight surgeon. Kim is a graduate of Stanford University, with a B.A. in Human Biology, with a concentration in Public Health and Health Administration. She worked as a health care management consultant for American Practice Management before obtaining her medical degree. She completed her anesthesiology residency, as chief resident, at the University of Health Science Center in San Antonio. She is a Diplomate of the American Board of Anesthesiology in Anesthesiology and Pediatric Anesthesiology, and a Fellow of the American Society of Anesthesiology, with a specialty in Pediatric Anesthesia. She and Kirk co-founded For Hearts and Souls, a non-profit specializing in the international care of children with congenital heart disease. Kirk serves as medical director and diagnostic cardiologist for the organization, and they have voluntarily served the needs of tens of thousands of children with heart defects throughout the world. The organization has performed over 700 invasive pediatric cardiac procedures internationally. Kirk is also the Senior Pastor of Calvary Chapel South Maui.

We are long overdue for another Doctor As Patient episode. I decided it would be perfect for me to share my own personal story and journey with migraine. Having been a lifelong migraine patient, it has impacted my life since I was 11 years old. I have tried to never let it define me, but living with a chronic illness certainly controls many aspects of your life. I have tried almost every therapeutic option/treatment and now am blessed to have found a game changing new medication that has given me my life back! Along the way I have also had huge empathy for my migraine patients - we suffer in a way that most people will never understand. I hope you enjoy this brief glimpse into my migraine life. There are many great online resources and support groups that I would recommend. As always -message me with any questions!

I have a slight obsession with a trainer I follow on Facebook and Instagram. I’ve been following Cori Lefkowith of REDEFINING STRENGTH for years, enjoying her motivational posts and loving her targeted exercises for my troublesome injuries. She has great rehab advice that I have tried and tested on my numerous Ortho injuries. She has helped me when many PT’s couldn’t even crack the mystery. She posted something a few weeks ago that blew my mind: “Most people fail because of how they try to achieve their goals.” She went on to write that the date at which most people completely quit on their New Year’s Resolutions...is…..?? It’s not the Summer...Or a specific holiday or event… It’s not the middle of February which was my guess. It’s JANUARY 19th! (This date is based on a study done of over 800 million people’s activities in 2019) Which led me to thinking and asking WHY do people quit so early? What are the stumbling blocks that cause us to give up? How can physicians and other healthcare experts help motivate their patients or themselves even….to realize their fitness and weight loss goals? Cori oozes with energy and positivity and encouragement. She will tell you, you are NEVER too old, too big, too injured ( insert your excuse) to not achieve your fitness goals! She’s passionate about what she does and has a massive following on FB and IG to show it. Today we brush the surface on common stumbling blocks like how to stay committed to your workout routine. What causes people to burnout or quit? How to get over the motivation hump and what tricks/tips help people stay consistent. And then there’s the four letter D word!!!! Cori’s Bio: Cori Lefkowith is the owner of Redefining Strength. Her company is empowering clients through fitness and nutrition while teaching them to train smarter, not just harder. In our culture of “No pain, no gain” and “more is better,” Redefining Strength is teaching clients a more efficient, intentional way to train to get results. We lead busy lives. Our training routine and diet should fit our schedule and help us create a sustainable lifestyle.

Last week the Supreme Court blocked the OSHA vaccine mandate for large businesses. While this is a huge ruling, how exactly did this overturn and how was it decided? During this pandemic we have seen decisions being made based on doctrine. Do administrative agencies have the authority to implement medical mandates based on their interpretation of science? To help us unpack what happened and where we might be headed with this ruling is our guest, attorney Ryan Heath. He does an amazing job explaining how OSHA had over reached their authority and power as interpreted by the Supreme Court. Remember that currently healthcare facilities that operate under CMS ( Center for Medicare Services) still need to comply with vaccine mandates and this is a completely separate path that will play out differently. Time will tell. Ryan Heath is a licensed Arizona attorney with a background in criminal defense. He is also president and CEO of The Gavel Project, a new nonprofit organization that provides education and support to the public regarding the recent Covid-19 mandates/issues. Its mission is to fight unethical government/employer mandates and protect the freedom of Americans, especially children.

Today we talk about Omicron taking over as the dominant strain around the world and the future of Covid. Omicron is much more contagious, seems to be much less dangerous and mitigation strategies have not worked. The world has gone MAD focusing on vaccine status instead of what is happening with infections, illness and hospitalization/deaths. Could Omicron be the golden ticket that is turning this pandemic into an “endemic”? Join our banter! PS: Check out Travis Luttmer at Country Financial (click here) for your insurance needs!

Pfizer has released a potential “treatment” for Covid: Paxlovid. The drug, Paxlovid, received an emergency use authorization by FDA for use in patients 12 years old and up who have tested positive for COVID-19 and are at high risk.

You’ve heard all the jokes- what’s your poo telling you?, eat sh&t and die, you’re full of sh&t. Today we are going in deep and discussing how “eating” poo can actually save people! ( no they don’t really have to eat it, but it makes a great title!) Fecal microbiota transplant ( FMT) aka a stool transplant, is the process of transferring stool from a healthy patient into another individual. Currently in the USA, the only FDA approved use of this treatment is for C. difficile infections. It has been used experimentally to treat other GI diseases such as IBS, colitis, and even some neurological conditions like MS, Parkinsons and even autism. What is even more amazing, is that the 10,000 plus species of microorganisms in the GI tract make up a unique “microbiome” in each individual. There is huge diversity in the gut microbiome depending on diet, genetics, environment and overall health of the individual. Research is exploring the potential curative role of gut bacteria in various diseases. Our guest expert on this subject is Dr. Sabine Hazan, a Gastroenterologist and scientific researcher in the subject of FMT. She launched ProgenaBiome, a genetic sequencing research company dedicated to understanding the gut flora at the clinical level. Her book, “Let’s Talk Sh&t” is a fun, informative read for clinicians to lay people. The first woman ever accepted into the University of Florida as a Clinical Gastroenterology Fellow, Dr. Sabine Hazan is a pioneer in the medical field. Board certified in Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Internal Medicine, Dr. Hazan has published articles in numerous prestigious medical journals, including theJournal of Duval County Medical Association and Gastroenterology, and won several awards, such as the Best Fellow Scientific Presentation and Dean’s Research Award awarded by University of Florida. In addition, Dr. Sabine Hazan is an acclaimed speaker and presented symposiums for influential medical organizations like the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy and Astra Merk, Inc.

What CAN a physician do other than prescribe your medications, perform exams on every orifice you have and cut and paste you back together with knives, nukes and robotics? Guess what? There is a whole world of other career options out there for those who are looking for a complete career change or just starting a new side gig. Dr. John Jurica joins us today to give us an overview of the options. I think he must have heard them all! He is a board-certified family physician who began doing nonclinical side jobs early in his career as UM physician advisor and occupational medicine medical director. In 2017, John started producing the weekly Physician Nonclinical Careers Podcast, where he presents interviews with physician entrepreneurs, medical directors, hospital executives, managers, coaches and other experts in physician career transition. His podcast was listed as a Feedspot Top 20 Physicians Podcasts You Must Follow in 2020 and 2021. In 2018, he created the Nonclinical Career Academy MemberClub (nonclinicalphysicians.com/joinnca), an online membership site with video courses designed to help physicians accelerate their career pivots. John and Dr. Tom Davis recently launched NewScript, an online community of healthcare professionals, career transition mentors, and wellness specialists helping each other live a better life. It is a private, uncensored, and ad-free space that incorporates a forum, daily posts, mentorship programs, online courses, livestream events and interviews with clinicians who have transitioned to a nontraditional career.

The big “O” variant is upon us, May’s got Covid and we repurposed a livestream! Here comes Omicron. What does this mean for the winter, for your family, your job, your health, your mask supply? There has been a lot of panic pushed by the media over this new variant. So what’s the truth? Is it Molly Hatchet and we’re “flirtin’ with disaster”? Maybe it’s Muller’s Ratchet- where organisms accrue so many deleterious mutations that they push themselves into extinction. Or….. a whole pile of options in between. We give our opinions and interpretation of the emerging data with the underlying theme among experts being ,nobody currently knows where this is going to go. Plus we are trying something new! We repurposed a FaceBook live episode for this show, so it’s definitely got a raw/interactive vibe to it. Let us know how you like it! Sponsor: Our sponsor this month is Locumstory.

Go big or go home… this is an in depth look at a rising trend in the healthcare workforce. What do you know about healthcare unions? Do you think of pickets and healthcare providers demanding more money? Did you even know they existed? With the continuous corporatization of American healthcare, physicians have been losing their voice, power and have not figured out a successful way to keep their power in advocating for the patients best interest. As I have often told patients, I feel like I have as much power as the Walmart checker does in their corporation. Our guest today is Joe Crane. A longtime member of the labor movement and union organizer of nearly two decades, he helps doctors reclaim their profession as the Doctors Council's National Organizing Director. Joe has been working with and organizing doctors for over four years. Most notably, he successfully negotiated several physician collective bargaining agreements and took a group of physicians on the picket line in Washington state's first ever physician strike. The Doctors Council is the country's oldest and largest union of attending physicians.

Happy Thanksgiving! We hope you are enjoying the holiday weekend, giving thanks and staying safe. We also hope you are avoiding the big holiday medical horrors that are common at this time of year. Stop freaking out about Covid this weekend, it’s still more likely that an auto accident will occur than the attack of the spike proteins. Don’t let football or family get your blood boiling, or your heart stopping. Avoid the ER from flying knives, boiling gravy and dirty birds that breed Salmonella! We’ll tell you how NOT to cook a wild turkey ( since we’ve done it) and tell you what foods might be a health hazard. We have a special cocktail this week and surprisingly it’s not Vodka and Cran! I’m sharing the recipe below. Most of all we are thankful for YOU, our listeners, fans and guests that make this wild and crazy ride of a show all possible. Cheers and don’t get too stuffed! Cocktail: Apple Cider Moscow Mule: 2 oz Ginger Beer 1.5 oz Vodka ( we used Chopin) 2 oz Pressed Apple Cider 05. Oz Lime juice fresh squeezed Ice, Cinnamon stick -squeeze lime into a frosted moscow mule mug, add desired ice, add liquid ingredients, stir with cinnamon stick and then toss into cup! Enjoy!

How would you react if you were diagnosed with cancer? Unless you have been there, it’s difficult to imagine. Today’s guest, Rick Dancer, relives this trip with us. He graciously takes us through his diagnosis, fears and questions he had in deciding what treatment would be right for him. Rick did a lot of research, not “settling” for a medical plan that would leave him with an outcome he found unacceptable. During our interview it becomes apparent that he didn’t expect how this life changing diagnosis would ultimately impact his life in such a positive way. About Rick Dancer: Rick is a journalist and visual storyteller. He spent 25 years reporting and anchoring the news in the Pacific Northwest. Today, he continues the art of mixing video and interviews producing a live “Get Real with Rick Dancer” nightly production. He and his wife travel the Pacific Northwest bringing viewers the backstories that rarely get told. Hey!

What killed 600 K men and women in 2020? Nope not Covid. Even in 2020, the second leading cause of death behind heart disease is Cancer. Sadly everyone has forgotten about the original C word. With the pandemic, Cancer screenings plummeted and people have lost focus on their true health risks. While breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and prostate cancer is the most common in men, the number one cancer killer is still lung cancer. Most people don’t even know that there IS screening available & recommended for those at high risk. Today we cover the current and updated cancer screening recommendations & summarize the gold standard recommendations from the USPSTF ( US Preventive Services Task Force) While the pandemic may have you concerned, don’t let it distract you from prioritizing your health.

With the recent mandates for vaccine requirements at various places of employment around the country, deadlines are looming for employees to show proof of Covid vaccination. We have been bombarded with questions regarding medical exemptions for those who truly should not receive the vaccine, those who have a medical reason NOT to get it as well as what qualifies as a “religious accommodation”. How does one apply, what forms do you need, who fills it out? What happens if your employer refuses to “accept” your physician letter and you are given your “walking papers’ instead? Our guest today, Alan Thayer of Innovative Law Group ThinkILG.com), is here to address all that and more. He clarifies the importance of the use of the term “religious accommodation” and 6 Key tips if terminated: 1 — DO NOT QUIT! 2 — Challenge adverse determination (consider a letter from a lawyer). 3 — File for unemployment (religious discrimination & failure to accommodate). 4 — File state civil rights complaint against employer (religious discrimination & failure to accommodate). Contact BOLI ( Bureau of Labour and Industry) 5 — File federal civil rights complaint (EEOC) against employer (religious discrimination & failure to accommodate). 6 — Watch court decisions for claims by employees against employers based on federal religious accommodation laws.

This episode is in honor of World Mental Health Day (and because my bestie k.d asked a long time ago for this) It’s really hard to do justice to a topic in 40 minutes that is so vast and layered. The mental health crisis in the US has fallen on deaf ears for years. Now with Covid bringing emotional stress, healthcare burnout, social isolation, disruption of societal norms- well it’s no wonder the whole world hasn’t literally gone mad. We are here to tell you we get it, you’re not alone, it gets better. Both of us have been through some very dark times. We understand the dark days, real depression, PPD, S.A.D. But we want to remind everyone that as life brings you it’s crappiest moments, going through a rough patch emotionally does not mean you have a disorder. We give you some practical tips for finding the light at the end of the tunnel- I personally create my light with Verilux! It’s a game changer that boosts my mood ANYTIME of the year. Finally, if you or someone you are concerned about is showing serious signs, symptoms and needs professional help- do NOT hesitate in getting immediate attention. Better and brighter days are possible! Oh and.cheers for National PA Week! Sponsor: Our sponsor this week is Locumstory.

This week Tim flies solo. May is gone so Tim has lost his wingman or wing woman (for political correctness). Tim interviews Dr Paul Alexander, former member of the US Covid Task Force and advisor to the WHO, among many other roles. He has a PhD in evidenced based medicine and quotes studies faster than most of us can breathe. Paul makes a very compelling evidence based argument that children should be treated as “already being vaccinated”. We dive deep into the data on children and covid, vaccine efficacy and what the vaccine has accomplished to this point. It was an honor to interview Dr Alexander again and dig into the data. You can taste his passion for protecting children and getting life back to normal. We even get a hint of what it was like to work as an insider in DC at the beginning of the pandemic.

What does it really mean when we say follow the science? Believe it or not, this week is a Doctales with Cocktails episode- albeit a more sobering discussion over a fine, local whiskey. What a perfect episode to ponder over a tumbler of. Blue Line Unapologetic American Whiskey! This week we discuss some historical things done in the name of science. Specifically we dive into Eugenics, the science of “the day” for over 50 years. It became accepted by the scientific community and world elites, intellectuals and political leaders including Alexander Graham Bell, Winston Churchill, John Maynard Keynes, and Woodrow Wilson, to more notably Margaret Sanger and Adolf Hitler. The concept born in the late 1800’s believed that selective breeding of humans would breed away undesirable traits that contributed to a weaker, unhealthy society: feeblemindedness, criminality, birth defects and mental health issues for example. If you were in the ‘ELITE’ crowd, you were a Eugenicist. Fast forward to current societal and scientific struggles. What concepts or “group think” exist? Is following “the science” today’s pandemic the same thing? What about the labels associated with being anti/ pro vax, anti/pro climate change? We contend that while there are often many scientific truths and facts in these principles, we can get caught up in the debate without removing our own bias. What happens next is “the science” becomes political, and for many their politics is a natural extension into becoming their religion. Is Covid all about science or “scientism”? We believe there should be healthy debate which means allowing scientists to challenge one another to reach the truth. Shutting down opposing views and censorship only pushes the agenda of unilateral thinking. Ultimately those who only listen to one side are believers in dogma, not science. I definitely will drink to that! Cheers! Sponsor: Our sponsor this week is Deputy! You can use Deputy on any device, on the go.

The most underrated frontline warriors in the Covid-19 fight are the ICU nurses. I’m super excited for you to hear from my sister, Heather Burgess. She has a 10 year career as a Critical Care RN and has been front and central since the pandemic began. She lives in Canada and chats with us today about the Canadian Covid experience. While the patient is fighting for their life, the nurses are there 24/7, 365. More recently they have been denied any vacation time, are doubled up with responsibility and are sharing the emotional stress with patients, families and colleagues. Now into the second year of this pandemic, many of them are reaching their breaking point. This is happening all around the world, not just Canada. I’m excited you finally get to hear “a nurse’s story” ! Heather is very humble in this interview - the nurses acting as advocates for their unconscious patients, the emotional abuse they sustain from grieving family members, the frequent need to change care plans depending on which Intensivist is leading the team. Covid is truly a war they are fighting, with emotional and physical consequences from the workplace. We omit the politics and Tim tries to restrain himself in the vaccine debate! Join us for the Canadian Covid experience. Today’s show is brought to you by Locumstory.

Welcome back for Part 2 of our interview with Dr. Peter Breggin , the “Conscience of Psychiatry”. We pick up from last week’s show in our discussion on the history of psychiatric treatment reform, to the parallels with public and social control during Covid. Today we dive into the basis of his new book- Covid 19 and the Global Predators We discuss the big picture with the events before and during the Covid 19 worldwide pandemic and the international intertwining of big power. Is the response to Covid 19 based on science and acts of goodwill towards mankind? Or is it really a responsive action by predatory capitalists not letting a black swan event go to waste? Listen to his summary and decide for yourself! Peter R. Breggin MD is a Harvard-trained psychiatrist and former Consultant at NIMH who has been called “The Conscience of Psychiatry” for his many decades of successful efforts to reform the mental health field. His work provides the foundation for modern criticism of psychiatric diagnoses and drugs, and leads the way in promoting more caring and effective therapies. His research and educational projects have brought about major changes in the FDA-approved Full Prescribing Information or labels for dozens of antipsychotic and antidepressant drugs. He continues to educate the public and professions about the tragic psychiatric drugging of America’s children. As a medical-legal expert, Dr. Breggin has unprecedented and unique knowledge about how the pharmaceutical industry too often commits fraud in researching and marketing psychiatric drugs. He has testified many times in malpractice, product liability and criminal cases, often in relation to adverse drug effects and more occasionally electroshock and psychosurgery. During the 1970s Dr. Breggin began his reform work by organizing an international campaign to stop the resurgence of lobotomy and other psychosurgery. He was a huge advocate and voice for the ending of psychosurgery which led to the creation of the International Center for the Study of Psychiatry and Psychology. Dr. Breggin has authored dozens of scientific articles and more than twenty books, including medical books and the bestsellers Toxic Psychiatry and Talking Back to Prozac. Two more recent books are Medication Madness: The Role of Psychiatric Drugs in Cases of Violence, Suicide and Crime and Psychiatric Drug Withdrawal: A Guide for Prescribers, Therapists, Patients and their Families. His most recent book is Guilt, Shame and Anxiety: Understanding and Overcoming Negative Emotions.

Imagine that one moment you are going about your everyday life, the next instant you experience your child’s life vanishing in front of you. This is the story and journey of grief recovery from our dear guest Dr. Marcy Larson. She graciously shares her personal story, how it affected her ability to practice Medicine and how she created a podcast to help not only her personal healing but others as well. The loss of a child is the biggest loss one can ever suffer. Openly discussing grief is something our culture is not very adept at. Knowing what to say to those who are mourning is difficult and often we say the wrong things to people, trying to be helpful in our ignorance. This episode is for EVERYONE. Whether you personally have experienced loss, know someone who has, or are in the Medical profession counseling a patient. Grief and life loss is something we will all face in our lifetime. Marcy Larson is a Pediatrician, wife and mother of four children. She is passionate about caring for children and families. After losing her son Andy, she was inspired to create a weekly podcast called “Losing a Child: Always Andy’s Mom”. The show offers healing and hope to bereaved parents and those who support them. It offers helpful advice and support to make the grief journey a little bit less difficult. Find her here at andysmom.com and on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

This week we are talking about “drugs”, specifically the world of PBMs with Dr. Lee Strandberg. Pharmacy Benefit Managers(PBM) are the middlemen between your pharmacist and your prescription and your insurance company. Yep.. more middlemen. If you have never heard of the term PBM, well you are not alone. Most people have no clue that they exist, how they work and how the cost or medications is controlled, negotiated or paid for. They are the one paying the pharmacist for your medication! While there are approximately 60 PBS, the 3 largest ones currently control 80% of the market. We discuss both arms of the pharmacy world- how the pharmacy acquires the medications and purchases them. Hang on as we unravel the mysterious chain of events on how the pharmacy gets paid by the PBM and how they negotiate the prices with your insurance company. We do get a little deep in the weeds on cost control and price negotiations, so pay attention. We only WISH that getting a Zpack could be as simple as buying a head of lettuce from your local farmers market. Dr. Lee Strandberg is our guest this week who intimately knows the ins and outs of the complex layers of the pharmacy world. He is a Professor Emeritus, Pharmacy Economics and Public Health Oregon State University and was Director, Managed Care pharmacy for SHS Plans from 2005-2011. He was appointed by Oregon Governor Kitzhaber to the OR Health Policy Board, Medicare-Medicaid Integration of Care and Services work Group which wrote part of the CCO and reporting structure. He was a committee member on the OR Evidence Based Review of Prescription Drugs Preferred Drug List. During the past 40 years he has presented papers, seminars and consulted on the impact of pharmaceutical use on health care costs and quality. He has been a consultant to governmental agencies in Australia and Canada. He currently works as a Pharmacy Director for Kannact, Inc.Don’t forget to reach out to MR Insurance Consultants where their goal is to assist physicians in obtaining the most comprehensive coverage available to fit their unique situation.

What if you became the patient of the very thing you fought? Hear this amazing story from Dr. Reema Batra, our guest this week in our 3rd installment in our series of “The Doctor as Patient”. Dr. Batra is a Board Certified Medical Oncologist and Hematologist. Her story is not only ironic but provides a unique perspective, having recently been diagnosed and treated for early stage breast cancer. She graciously shares the events that led to fortunate early diagnosis, her unique ability to advocate for her own treatment plan and how she dealt with the emotional struggles. Now having experienced what her patients face, she knows firsthand their uncertainties and fears. Literally walking in their shoes has provided a shared bond and ability to offer unique support for them through their journey. More about Dr Batra: She has been practicing since 2007. Initially she worked in the academic setting at NYU focusing on cancer care and healthcare disparities. She led a project to start a Breast Care Center at Woodhull Medical Center in Brooklyn, NY. In 2012 she moved to San Diego and works with an underserved population. She has worked hard to maintain the NAPBC accreditation at her affiliated hospital, Sharp Grossmont Hospital. She stresses the treatment of the “patient as a whole” and believes that outside of the exam room is where the difference is made in a patient’s long term outcome. She is also a wife and mother and loves to run. Thanks to our sponsor this week is Panacea Financial. Don’t forget to reach out to them for physician or medical student loans.

Cheers to you if you are surviving the insanity wherever you live! The entire world is filled with the craziest rules, laws and regulations employed to “help” stop Covid-19. From forbidding sales of open toed shoes and short sleeve shirts in South Africa to “banning pillows on your Brazilian...flight that is! Canada has cracked down yet again with roadblocks and fines at “Covid check points”. Other countries have employed tracking bracelets- que the Hunger Games music. The world is truly a crazy place. Soooooo….would you roll in cow dung or drink urine if it meant you were protected from Covid? We are NOT kidding! Next we discuss the morality around vaccine incentives. You can get anything from free Krispy Kremes, free Uber rides, pot, handheld blenders, lottery tickets and ‘round the world plane tickets. State governments and Biden’s team are throwing carrots to the masses to reach their goal of 70% vaccination rates. Today we are drowning our disbelief with some tasty Peanut Butter Whiskey made by Skrewball Whiskey. Sipped over ice, this is a perfect aperitif that oozes with a nutty/caramel flavor. Plus we are toasting 29 years of wedded bliss. Thank you very much. Tune in to hear me pitch Tim some fastballs and curveballs of the most bizarre rules, treatments and incentives we have heard about. You decide: Strike or Ball? Winner or Loser? Hero or Zero?

Hang on to your seats, this is a long one! This week is a continuation from our podcast last week with Dr. Peter McCullough regarding Covid-19! Last week we discussed evidence based treatments for Covid-19 , best practices to avoid hospitalizations and death plus what resources we have. This week is all about the vaccines, safety, adverse events and RISK!. Plus is there a bigger theme in all of this? It feels like we are fighting a war not against Covid, but against each other. With opposing sides in the public and medicine, to vaccinate or not to vaccinate; who , what, when and why IS the question! We used to think asymptomatic spread was frequent and now we are learning otherwise. New evidence from published data available from tracking over 10 million people in China shows there is a less than 1% spread from asymptomatic people. The evidence seems to show we need to “Stop” testing asymptomatic well people! What we are doing in public health now seems wasteful, expensive. Why are we now still having to wear masks if we are vaccinated if it’s fully safe and effective as promoted? Next we look at extreme differences between the states handling the pandemic response from Michigan to Texas. Taking it further, look up north to the border to home and native land in Canada. The border is closed, Covid hotels are mandatory for noncitizens entering for ANY reason, with no regard to their health, immunity or current vaccination status. Draconian or Totalitarianism? You won’t believe it, but it’s TRUE! Johns Hopkins published a booklet in 2017 referencing THE SPARS PROJECT. It was a “response” document and plan to deal with the next pandemic , predicting even the exact genus and species that would hit the world in the near future. You can read how they had already mapped out how to handle, shut down and analyze a global crisis. Next we get into how the response to Covid-19 feels to be weaponized. Schools, businesses, churches, and countries shut down and often with massive fines for not adhering to authority. Is this really The GREAT RESET? We move on to discuss how the vaccine initially was promoted as a “volunteer” basis to protect those at risk. Now we are seeing the implementation of financial coercement, Universities mandating it, talk of vaccine passports, business threatening to fire employees who are unvaccinated. What!! While Dr. McCullough is pro- vaccine, he definitely believes that Covid-19 vaccination may not be appropriate for everybody. Covid survivors, potential childbearing women and pregnant women were ALL excluded from the trials, why would we expect them to blindly get the vaccine without any data? This is a risk too big to ask for many people and one that is naively endorsed by many. The CDC is very clear on their statement regarding who should get the vaccine : ask your doctor if the vaccine is right for you. They DON'T GET TO DECIDE! It is a discussion and decision between the physician and patient. No other vaccine( flu, pneumococcal, shingles, etc) has been pushed this hard to the masses in the history of vaccines. To date there are 3514 deaths associated with the vaccine: anaphylaxis , reactogenic deaths (from blood clots, high fevers, etc) and then thrombotic events that occur farther out in time. The numbers for vaccine related adverse events is over 40,000 per 100 million. Something to consider: Is Johnson and Johnson the safest vaccine because it is only ONE vaccine? Finally: The proposition of vaccinating healthy low risk people to protect the population at large is fraught with moral implications. There WILL be college kids who die due to the rare event from vaccine induced causes .. from being coerced into the vaccine because of pressure from the masses. How do we assess risk, benefit and sort through the data………….. What an honor to have this intelligent discussion and input from a world renowned and highly published physician. Dr. McCullough is a practicing internist and cardiologist and Professor of Medicine at Texas A & M College of Medicine. He is board certified in internal medicine, cardiology, and clinical lipidology. He also has a Master of Public Health from University of Michigan School of Public Health. Dr. McCullough has broadly published on a range of topics in medicine with > 1000 publications and > 600 citations in the National Library of Medicine. His works have appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine, Journal of the American Medical Association, Lancet, British Medical Journal and other top-tier journals worldwide. He is the editor-in-chief of Cardiorenal Medicine, Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, and senior associate editor of the American Journal of Cardiology. He has appeared on news outlets and is passionate about spreading the word about treatment. He can be found sharing his opinion and advice on the C19 Google groups as well.

This week is just the beginning of some AWESOME discussions around Covid-19! Get ready since we have an amazing guest and world renowned expert who is a leading expert on the subject of Covid-19 and has the most citations in the National Library of Medicine. Not only is he humble and gracious but very wise and passionate about helping and treating our PATIENTS first! Aside from being an expert, he TREATS Covid patients and is also a Covid survivor. Dr. McCullough is a practicing internist and cardiologist and Professor of Medicine at Texas A & M College of Medicine. He is board certified in internal medicine, cardiology, and clinical lipidology. He also has a Master of Public Health from University of Michigan School of Public Health. He cares for advanced patients with common medical problems including heart and kidney disease, lipid disorders, and diabetes.

He is the editor-in-chief of Cardiorenal Medicine, Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, and senior associate editor of the American Journal of Cardiology. On November 19, 2020, Dr. McCullough testified in the US Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs concerning early ambulatory treatment of high-risk patients with COVID-19. He has appeared on news outlets and is passionate about spreading the word about treatment. Today we discuss evidence based treatments of Covid-19 , best practices to avoid hospitalizations and death plus what resources we have. He believes it is immoral, unethical and bordering on illegal to advise NO TREATMENT of outpatients who have Covid-19. The focus has been on PPE, lockdown and isolation as well as treating only hospitalized patients. Forgotten are the patients caught in the middle. We can’t just be passive doing nothing to prevent hospitalizations! It is therapeutic nihilism! While the FDA is a regulatory body, NIH is a research organization and the CDC is a public health organization- none of these organizations give guidelines and put the onus on physicians to figure out how to treat their patients.

Today’s episode is the first in our series on “The Doctor as Patient”. So many times at work I have been shocked when patients find out I had the flu, had surgery or experienced a “real medical” problem. No we aren’t superheroes, and we DO share your pain. When the doc becomes the patient, they often will experience the same struggles ,vulnerabilities and fears. This can be a very eye opening experience and impact how we see and treat our patients. This week we have the privilege to hear from Dr. Manisha Rayavarapu. She is a Family Medicine physician, diagnosed with Lupus during her 2nd year of residency training. She describes how her faith along with her husband, have been the most important support on her journey. She shares her struggles with navigating the health system ,uncompassionate colleagues and administration, to family who may not understand how her illness affects her life. She has gone on to write a book on her experiences, struggles, fears and strength on coping with her ‘new normal’. Her memoir, “Butterflies, Boards and Blessings” is her way of helping educate and raise awareness about lupus. She lives by her favorite quote : “life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it”! Our sponsor this week is Physician Financial Services.

Yippee it’s time for another Doctales with Cocktails! Cheers AND…..today we are diving into the beginning of our series on the “Doctor as Patient”. We love to poke fun at ourselves, so we are sharing a few ‘memoirs” from our morbid past. Did you know Tim tried to be stoic beyond his common sense? Yep and he managed to land up with extended “staycation” at the hotel hospital, experiencing the pleasures of baseball and PCA pump full of morphine. We share our first childbirth experience. Come on who are we kidding- we all know it was actually MAY’s marathon experience! Tim’s participation in the event was mostly a few minutes of “fun” and then having to split his brain between playing doctor or the dad card.

No we aren’t swearing mad! This week we are sharing our 4 F’s to success and what priorities need the most attention and balance in everyone’s life: Faith- yes everyone believes in something even if it’s nothing. How you see the world through your unique moral lens will shape everything you are. Family- love ‘em or hate ‘em, small or large, blood or your close tribe- everyone has relationships. Humans need each other. Are you nurturing your clan? Finances- the dreaded “b” word ( budget), money or lack of it. Like politics or religion, everyone wants to avoid dealing with the finance topic. Even if you are swimming in it you might not have your financial house in order. Fun- neglected by most. Can you guess it is a top priority for Tim? Are you living life to the fullest , neglecting yourself or just screwing off irresponsibly? We also clear up all the Confusion and Congratulations over Episode 13! This episode is dedicated to Roxie, our producer. We had a wonderful 12 years with this yellow lab that was everyone’s friend. She made our hearts bigger, and took a piece of it with her this week when she passed. ...And by the way, if you need disability insurance, reach out to MR Insurance Consultants for any physician insurance related needs.

This week is another Doctales with Cocktails and…..today we call BS on ourselves. We have done some really dumb stuff over the years and now we are laughing and sharing a FEW of the ridiculousness of our medical past. We have experienced exploding sebaceous cysts causing “something about May”, exploding speculum shrapnel and hydration on the legislature lawn. Tim has even been paid in whiskey for weekend vasectomies! We confess we like our hillbilly medical experience which involves some vet medicine and NASCAR driving to emergencies. Biggest regrets: May’s 9 month stint as Tim’s nurse. Tim’s frosty faux pas “dicksicle”. We are tasting some Crater Lake goodness today- Cheers to Crater Lake Vodka & Cran for the win.
