When catastrophic medical mistakes occur, the natural societal instinct is to seek legal vengeance. In this episode, Christopher explains why he refuses to feed the defensive medical machine that failed his daughter, Emily. Taking a step back from individual blame, we explore Christopher’s recent Op-Ed, Giving Doctors Back Control of Medicine, and break down the massive administrative burdens suffocating today's clinicians. By examining the fatal blindspot in Emily's case: the failure to check her inherited ATM mutation before administering proton radiation. This episode exposes exactly what happens when a broken system forces doctors to treat the tumor instead of the patient's whole biology. Ultimately, this is a demand for systemic reform: moving upstream to Genomic and Precision Medicine so clinicians finally have the time, tools, and freedom to save lives.
