Summary

It’s time we stopped ignoring the deadly invisible elephant in the room: our dysfunctional and outdated physician culture. Dr. Pearl’s new book, Uncaring: How The Culture Of Medicine Kills Doctors AndPatients, is a MUST-READ. All proceeds go to Doctors Without Borders. Full video with transcript. Here’s our other show with Robbie where we discussed his prior book, Mistreated. Dr. Robert Pearl is the former CEO of The Permanente Medical Group (1999-2017), the nation’s largest medical group, and former president of The Mid-Atlantic Permanente Medical Group (2009-2017). In these roles he led 10,000 physicians, 38,000 staff and was responsible for the nationally recognized medical care of 5 million Kaiser Permanente members on the west and east coasts. Named one of Modern Healthcare’s 50 most influential physician leaders, Pearl is an advocate for the power of integrated, prepaid, technologically advanced and physician-led healthcare delivery. He serves as a clinical professor of plastic surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine and is on the faculty of the Stanford Graduate School of Business, where he teaches courses on strategy and leadership, and lectures on information technology and health care policy.
