He had severe heart failure and he was ultimately found to have a rare genetic mutation that put him at a one in four chance of dying before it would have been diagnosed.

He ultimately underwent a heart transplant and is home with his family today.

Many people in healthcare, they don't have an AI reluctance.

They have a technology reluctance that is a learned response from previous data.

Meaning anytime someone comes with some new technology, it often makes their life harder.

This new technology is supposed to help us optimize billing, but requires you to spend less time directly taking care of the patient.

This is why I think it's really important for healthcare practitioners to be part of the process of creating this technology.

1,000%.

No one was talking about this, you know, seven or eight years ago when I started doing it.

It's been 10 years of people saying, no, that's not possible, slamming the door on your face, and very much having to take a step out on the bridge while you're building it.

The moments where I feel like I'm really doing science is when I genuinely do not know the answer to the question, but I know it's important to answer.

And if it works, it would be fundamentally groundbreaking to the way we think about practicing medicine.

I see the ability for every patient to receive exceptional quality of care.

And in a cost-effective and affordable way, we make sure that the right steps are being taken for each patient so that they're being effectively triaged, being screened for diseases the way they need to.

And wherever there is uncertainty about what should happen next,

we actually are able to quantify what that degree of uncertainty is and help patients navigate through that care journey without second guessing what is actually going on.

I think the role of the physician continues to be that of the person on the journey with you.

I think about all of the scariest and most important things I've done in my life.

And I think about the people who were there to guide me through it.

Those people leave indelible marks on you and help guide you through this challenging process.
