Join Nessa Meshkaty, an internal medicine, pediatrics, and infectious disease physician, as she explores the profound intersections of empathy, human connection, and societal challenges in this thought-provoking podcast. Drawing on insights from her personal experiences, conversations with mentors like Dr. Paul Farmer, and observations from her global travels, Nessa delves into topics such as the Japanese philosophy of kintsugi, the importance of empathy in addressing social issues, and the impact of technology on human relationships. Through engaging discussions and insightful reflections, listeners are invited to contemplate the complexities of the human condition and discover actionable strategies for fostering genuine connections and collective healing.

Nessa Meshkaty is an internal medicine, pediatrics, and infectious disease physician.

She discusses the KevinMD article, “Kintsugi: Embracing brokenness and empathy.”

Our presenting sponsor is Nuance, a Microsoft company.

Together, Microsoft and Nuance are leveraging their rich digital technology and advanced AI capabilities to tackle some of health care’s biggest challenges. AI-driven technology promises to revolutionize patient and provider experiences with clinical documentation that writes itself.

The Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience, or DAX for short, is a voice-enabled solution that automatically captures patient encounters securely and accurately at the point of care. DAX Copilot combines proven conversational and ambient AI with the most advanced generative AI in a mobile application that integrates directly with your existing workflows.

Physicians who use DAX have reported a 50 percent decrease in documentation time and a 70 percent reduction in feelings of burnout, and 85 percent of patients say their physician is more personable and conversational.

Discover AI-powered clinical documentation that writes itself. Visit https://nuance.com/daxinaction to see a 12-minute DAX Copilot demo.
