Thank you to Carrie, Michael, Dr. Bernardin, and everyone who is answering the call at Cook Park and throughout ATL. 2. I was giving in to my favorite app, NYT Games (Wordle, Spelling […]

	WWAD Updates
Good morning. It’s so good to be with you right now. It feels like it’s been forever. I’m a little emotional about it, so I’m going to be a little real, heads up. Understanding that this morning’s communication is rather lopsided in who’s talking, we are deeply grateful to all of you who are ‘talking’ […]

	What is Walk with a Doc?
Good morning! We hope all is fantastic with you. It’s Friday! The other morning (a non-Friday), I was asked, What is Walk with a Doc? This is what our team sees. We see game-changers.

Balloons and Stents

	4 Quick Good Things
Good morning, friends, Have you heard of OpenEvidence.com? It’s a new medical AI tool. Think of it as if ChatGPT and UpToDate had a baby. It’s not perfect (nothing is, except maybe my wife, Krissy), and yes, it can sometimes oversimplify or hallucinate. But for healthcare professionals in the U.S. with an NPI number, it’s a […]
 
		
		
	
	4 Quick, Good Things
Good morning. Here are 4 quick, good things. 1. In case you missed it, how much would you guess a pet is worth? If you’re up for a little guessing game, think of a dollar amount and see how close you are to what this study showed. Amazing, right?! I have a family member with 4 cats […]
 
		
		
	
	WWAD Alcatraz
Good morning! Every once in a while, this dog-eat-dog business required you to take a flyer. (The walking business is dog-eat-dog?) With intense heat pouring in from Physicians On Foot, Medical Meanderers, and others (David, why did you make these up?), we had to kick it up a notch or two. Under pressure, our WWAD […]
