In this podcast, Dr. Henry Buchwald, patient healthcare advocate and author of the book “Healthcare Upside Down”, engages in a thought-provoking discussion on the challenges and potential solutions within the healthcare system.
Our conversation revolves around the need to restore the doctor-patient relationship, prioritize patient care over profits, and address the current business-driven model.
Dr. Buchwald highlights the value of mentorship and leadership in attracting individuals with a genuine calling for healthcare. The discussion also explores the shortcomings of socialized systems and the potential for a more compassionate approach within a capitalistic framework.
Ultimately, Dr. Buchwald encourages a shift in mindset where caring for people is viewed as a calling and a profession, rather than just a job. We conclude with the insight that by focusing on what patients truly want and need in times of illness, the healthcare system can undergo a transformation that prioritizes personal care, empathy, and a deep commitment to patients' health and well-being.
