Restoring the Roots of American Medicine
American medicine did not begin as a system. It began in homes, sick rooms, and small communities, where the first diagnostic tool was knowing the patient by name. Before illness was met by institutions, it was met by family, by faith, by observation, and by a local physician who knew every member of the household.
The anniversary is a reason to celebrate. It is also a reason to ask what got lost along the way. Four physicians trace the arc from kitchen-table care to institutional control, from the doctor who sat at the bedside to the system that put a portal, an insurance rule, and a 10-minute timer between them.Join host Dr. Ryan Cole, for a timely discussion with Dr. Joseph Varon and IMA Senior Fellows Dr. Kat Lindley and Dr. Lynn Fynn as they explore the topic.
