You are familiar with the concept of food deserts and probably even education deserts. But what about diagnostic deserts? Join this episode with my lively guest Dr. Barry Rotman, physician and founder at Barry Rotman MD in Walnut Creek, California as we unpack the concept of diagnostic deserts. Barry's journey into membership medicine began with political science before medicine and eventually an homage to his father's rigorous dental practice pulled him out of group practice and into membership-based medicine. Ultimately, time spent delivering medical acupuncture through his group practice highlighted the significant patient-time required to uncover what was truly ailing them. From insomnia to adverse drug events, Dr. Rotman shares his decades of experience solving diagnostic desert cases and how membership-based medicine practices are uniquely positioned to solve these problems. You're going to thoroughly enjoy this episode!
