About this listen

 What if your rushed, robotic medical visit isn’t just frustrating, but a symptom of something much darker? In this powerful episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein sits down with Dr. Victor Montori, author of Why We Revolt, to explore what’s truly broken in healthcare and why patients and clinicians are suffering on the same side of the fight. Together, they uncover the corrosive impact of industrialized, fast medicine, the hidden costs of “heroic” care, and how complex patients are forced to carry impossible burdens in a system that sees them as data points, not people. Dr. Montori shares his vision for a Patient Revolution, explains why the soul of healthcare is under siege, and issues a call to action for anyone who's ever felt like just another number. If you’ve sensed something is deeply wrong in the exam room… you’re not imagining it. Takeaways: What if your provider is hurting just as much as you are—but for different reasons? When care vanishes, both the patient and the doctor suffer. The healthcare system wants faster visits. Dr. Montori wants a revolution. Heroic care comes at a cost—and not just for the clinician. You’re not imagining the harm. But you’re not powerless either. Reference Links: https://www.patientrevolution.org/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11902612/ Want more Dr. Victor Montori?
