HEALING TRUST: Preserving the Doctor-Patient Bond in a Digital World with Dr. Gilbert Xie
Manage episode 448788558 series 3564150
This episode is the first of many looking at AI and healthcare but it turned into much more than that as we touched on medical ethics, the role of a doctor, the broken 'delivery' on Western Medicine and the erosion of trust in healthcare.
Our guest this week is Dr. Gilbert Xie, Matt's personal long term doctor and a trailblazer in blending AI with Western and Chinese medicine to create personalized patient care. Most importantly Dr. Xie is a doctor who truly cares about doing what is best for his patients. We tackle critical issues such as the erosion of trust in healthcare, the ethical implications of AI in diagnostics, and the need for regulatory oversight in a rapidly evolving landscape. Dr. Xie's unique perspective, rooted in British general practice and traditional Chinese medicine, offers fresh insights into meeting local healthcare needs and his own embracing AI as an ally rather than a threat.
As we dissect the complexities of the healthcare industry, we examine the intricate relationships between insurance companies, pharmaceutical firms, and the potential misuse of advanced diagnostic tools. Highlighting Assim Malhotra's eye-opening documentary "Do No Pharm," we question whether profit is prioritized over patient care. Dr. Xie sheds light on how integrating Western and Chinese practices can enhance preventive care, while addressing the looming challenges posed by an aging population and declining birth rates. The conversation emphasizes the necessity of maintaining trust in the doctor-patient relationship, especially in an era of increasing patient knowledge and AI integration.
The journey doesn't stop there; we explore the growing interest in alternative medicine, spurred by a desire for holistic approaches that go beyond symptom management. Traditional Chinese medicine, dietary changes, and holistic strategies are gaining traction as patients seek more personalized and preventive care. Dr. Xie's reflections, coupled with insights from Dr. Scheer, reinforce the invaluable role of dedicated doctors who prioritize patient-centered care. This episode will leave you pondering the future of healthcare, urging you to challenge conventional practices and embrace a comprehensive approach that blends modern science with traditional wisdom.
