Wearables in Healthcare: Transforming the Doctor-Patient Relationship
Many of my patients ask me if they should get a new smart watch or other type of fitness tracker for themselves or a loved one this holiday season.
I get excited to discuss these products with my patients, but caution them that no device by itself will make you healthier.
Staying fit requires discipline, hard-work, and patience. Nonetheless, I think these devices are a helpful tool in our fitness and wellness endeavors.

Chronic Pain is Not a Character Flaw
An opioid epidemic sweeps the nation affecting tens of thousands of young males, those with their whole lives ahead of them. Policy makers feel impelled to do something, anything to curb the tide, and so they act.
The year was 1914. The primary policy was the Harrison Act. As a result of this act, physicians who prescribed more opioid than what was deemed reasonable faced loss of license and criminal prosecution.
The patient in pain became someone to be feared and avoided at all costs. Out of a sense of self-preservation, physicians chose to view chronic pain as merely a character flaw, something not worthy of attention.
But, there was more…
Because of this act and subsequent interpretations by the Supreme Court, those addicted to opioids and other drugs became criminals.
Millions of people have been harmed by this act, unnecessarily, and are still being harmed.

Is There a Doctor in the House?
I was called up from the Reserves to active duty to serve as a medical officer for Operation Desert Storm, during which I broke my back. I was transferred to Wilford Hall in San Antonio, TX and was placed at bed rest in a large 10- bed ward.
Every day, I waited for that moment or two when the surgical team would round on me. Afterward, the nurses would help wheel my bed down to the hallway where the pay phone was located.
Back then there were no cell phones, so I would pop in a bunch of quarters and call my wife. The first question out of her mouth was always this: “What did the doctor say?”
Notice it was always the doctor. Not the team of specialists. Not the Red team or Trauma team. Not the surrogate for the internist.
I realized how much it meant to me and my family to hear directly from my doctor; I needed that update from him every day.

It's Not Me, It's YOU: Breaking Up with Your Doc
I’m one of those patients who researches everything on the Internet. I work for RadioMD, so of course I would.
About seven weeks ago, shortness of breath resulted in a fainting spell in my ballet conditioning class. I’m aware of an anaerobic asthma condition but usually don’t need my inhaler for ballet conditioning. I stepped out to catch my breath, blacked out, and woke up after 30 seconds of bonding with the floor.
I was breathing fine when I awoke and refused the ambulance offered to me. My husband zipped in to collect me. He knows I’m strong-willed and independent, so he didn’t argue when I said I’d see a doctor the next day.
I kept that promise. But, it was more complicated than it set out to be.
