Join us in this insightful podcast episode featuring Sarah Wittry, a hospice and palliative care physician, and Kim Downey, a physical therapist. Sarah shares her journey of navigating burnout, finding balance, and embracing mindfulness practices while discussing the importance of aligning life with core values and maintaining harmony between professional and personal roles. Together, they delve into topics such as emotional intelligence, teamwork, and dismantling societal norms to chart one’s own path.

Sarah Wittry is a hospice and palliative care physician. Kim Downey is a physical therapist.

They discuss the KevinMD article, “Ditch the guilt and stress: Embrace your core values like this inspiring doctor mom.”

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.
