First hour: Discussing "The Point!" and how its themes apply to issues in 2019
Second hour: Dr. Gina Cuyler on her book, "Insider's Guide to Leading Your Medical Care"
In the early 1970s, musician and composer Harry Nilsson got high on acid and conceived a show called "The Point!" It’s a rather blunt story about the ways our society excludes and judges people who are different. A group of local musicians has revived the show for a modern edition, and they talk about the themes that they find prevalent in 2019. Our guests:
- Katie Morey, musician who plays the King
- Ben Morey, musician who plays the narrator
- Kat Schwarz, musician who plays the mom
Then in our second hour, Dr. Gina Cuyler has more than 25 years of clinical experience, and throughout her career, she says she has seen a breakdown in communication, miscommunication, or misunderstandings between patients and providers. In her new book, “Insider’s Guide to Leading Your Medical Care,” she provides information and resources aimed at helping patients advocate for their medical needs. She joins us in studio to discuss the impact of physician burnout, electronic medical records, and the healthcare process on patients. In studio:
- Dr. Gina Cuyler, M.D., author of “Insider’s Guide to Leading Your Medical Care,” and founder of Comprehension Internal Medicine PLLC
