Ketamine has FDA clearance. Psilocybin is still Schedule I. MDMA-assisted therapy was rejected by the FDA last year — and yet your patients are coming in having watched the documentaries, read the profiles, and in some cases, already tried it.

The clinical problem isn't whether these therapies have merit. It's that media literacy and clinical evidence are diverging rapidly, and you're in the middle.

How do you acknowledge what the data actually supports? How do you counsel patients who've self-administered, or how to stay credible when your patient knows more about the headlines than you'd like?

Which specialty do physicians respect the least? Your peers just answered — and held nothing back.

ED docs said they'd rather deliver pizza. Psychiatry catalogued every dismissal since med school. Primary care is described as being called "super docs" by the same specialists sending them 8-lab orders to enter.

Read what they actually said. Link below.

Your patients taking NAD+ supplements for "healthy aging" may be actively undermining their chemo. Case Western researchers found NMN boosted cancer cell energy, neutralized oxidative stress, and suppressed DNA damage — three mechanisms chemo depends on to work.

High baseline motor function masks early PD. It's a documented pattern, and three professional golfers illustrate it better than any case series.

Arnold Palmer. Sam Snead. Both continued competing at elite levels while early Parkinson's symptoms were present. The gap between onset and diagnosis in high-functioning patients is clinically meaningful and the cases in this piece put a face on what that delay looks like in practice.

Worth 3 minutes if you see active, athletic patients in your panel. https://tr.ee/pPs0cB

Your KRAS G12C patient progressed on sotorasib. Resistant cells are now cross-resistant to EGFR and HER2 inhibitors — but sensitive to paclitaxel.

AACR 2026 data is already reshaping how resistance gets managed. Full breakdown → https://tr.ee/nELgi9

For Alzheimer’s diagnosis, PET and CSF have been the bottleneck—expensive, invasive, and often delayed.

At AAN 2026, new data suggest blood-based biomarkers like p-tau217 and Aβ42/40 may now support earlier rule-in/rule-out decisions with strong real-world accuracy.

That could shift when, and how you escalate to PET or CSF.

Patients are increasingly referencing what they’ve seen on TV when discussing symptoms, timelines, and treatment expectations.

That creates friction—especially when narratives don’t reflect clinical reality.

See how media-driven expectations are shaping real-world patient conversations—and what clinicians can do about it. Tap the link in our bio for the full breakdown.

Casein protein before bed. Apple cider vinegar. “Fat-burning” teas.

Patients are testing overnight weight loss claims — and expecting a clinical answer.

Which of these have plausible metabolic effects (e.g., satiety signaling, overnight protein synthesis)? Which are being overstated?

Apparently, not all MDs are created equal... at least according to other MDs. Peer reviews reveal some hot takes on specialty stereotypes.

Nearly half of eligible patients may be missing a colorectal cancer risk signal tied to family history patterns—not just first-degree relatives.

If the evidence is clear, why hasn’t it translated into routine screening workflows?

See where the intake breaks down and what a more complete family history actually looks like. https://tr.ee/67YqUa
