Episode Details

Carrie Edelstein Mendoza, MD, MA, FACEP has over 20 years practicing emergency medicine in rural, suburban, and urban hospitals treating snakebites to gun shot wounds to 1000s of Covid-19 patients. She is a medical technology inventor with two patents for an Emergency Department communications app. Carrie is a healthcare policy advocate and social entrepreneur with non-profit FAIR, The Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism, serving as the Director of FAIR in Medicine. We spoke today about how ideology and bureaucracy are distorting the practice of medicine (and Carrie's playful dogs provided an amusing backdrop).
