Join us in this insightful episode as we welcome Peter Grinspoon, an internal medicine physician specializing in medical cannabis. Peter enlightens us on the current landscape of medical cannabis, focusing on its potential benefits for patients. We delve into the challenges doctors face in staying informed about cannabis research and the crucial role of unbiased reporting. Moreover, we explore the need for reform in the medical community’s approach to cannabis, while also discussing the importance of responsible prescribing and identifying patients who may not be suitable candidates. Tune in to this thought-provoking conversation that uncovers the intersection of health care, patient advocacy, and a progressive understanding of medical cannabis.

Peter Grinspoon is an internal medicine physician.

He shares his story and discusses his KevinMD article, “Cannabis is ground zero in the fight for racial justice in America.”

The Podcast by KevinMD is brought to you by the Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience.

Ambient intelligence augments human capabilities to make our lives easier. The applications are many, especially in health care. Ambient clinical intelligence is offsetting the most pressing challenges in health care today, such as burnout, physician shortages, physician and patient dissatisfaction, and underperforming financial outcomes, by applying the technology to clinical documentation. 

The Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience, or DAX for short, utilizes artificial intelligence and natural language processing to automatically document care. It securely listens to and captures the natural, clinician-patient encounter conversation unobtrusively, and turns that conversation into a clinical note for the clinician’s review and signature directly in the electronic health record. You just talk naturally, and DAX does the rest. 

DAX is being used by thousands of physicians across 30 different specialties nationwide. It has already won the Silver Stevie award in the health care technology category and was ranked #1 for improving clinician experience in KLAS’s top 20 emerging solutions.
