linkedin.comBack to Where I Started... 21 Years LaterSoooo, ha, um, I have a secret I’ve been keeping from you: I’m joining MDCalc full-time as its Head of AI. I wish I could say that I rage-quit medicine or that I’ve got some incredibly juicy story to tell, but alas.

Instead, after 18 years in emergency medicine, I’m stepping away from clinical practice for now, leaving the incredible Permanente Medicine — and joining @mdcalc full-time, the lil' ol' website I started as a medical student 21 years ago.

So here's my LinkedIn post with that cringe "I'm starting a new job!" energy! There are things about emergency medicine that changed. There are things about medicine that changed. There are things about me that changed, too. And then there’s AI.

I think medicine is at one of those rare moments when a lot of what comes next genuinely hasn’t been decided yet. AI could make medicine dramatically better to practice. It could also become the most powerful technology we’ve ever invented for asking fewer people to do even more work.
