  • Why AI Isn't the Tech Hype Hospital Leaders Think It Is
    Jun 2 2026

    We built a healthcare system engineered for sick care, but the future of medicine belongs to those who seek health.

    In this episode, global Digital Health Futurist Philippe Gerwill joins the panel to unpack the real bottlenecks stalling clinical innovation. He highlights a critical inversion happening in modern medicine. Historically, technology lagged behind clinical needs. Today, advanced technology vastly outpaces our institutional capacity to adopt it. The conversation delivers an evidence-based perspective on how to manage this rapid acceleration from a global innovator who understands both big pharma infrastructure and the reality of clinical adoption.

    Tune in to discover how forward-thinking medical leaders are realigning systemic incentives to transition from algorithmic task managers back to true, humanist healers.

    What You Will Discover:

    - Intro: The Tech-Adoption Paradox

    - Human Bubble: From Tech Hype To Structural Adaptation

    - What AI and Quantum Convergence Mean for Medicine?

    - The Paradigm Shift from Sick Care to Seeking Health

    - Task Automation vs. Job Displacement

    - Is AI Getting Overwhelming?

  • Healthcare AI: What To Know, What's Still Broken, and Where To Go Next
    May 26 2026
    What does it actually cost when a diagnosis comes six months too late, a test gets ordered twice, or a treatment decision gets made without the best information available?In this special recap episode of Signal & Symptoms, we synthesize the strongest healthcare AI insights from previous episodes — moving from the promise of what AI can do, to the real patient stories that reveal what's at stake when we delay, to an honest look at the barriers still standing in the way, and finally to the path ahead for clinicians and leaders ready to act. This isn't a hype episode. It's a practical reckoning: AI is already changing how diagnoses get made, how patients advocate for themselves, and how the next generation of healthcare standards will be written. The only question is whether you'll help shape it — or watch it happen without you.What You Will Discover:- The Promise: The Tech Exists- The Patient Problem: The Real Cost of Delay- The Reality Check: What the Studies Don't Tell You- Clinician Leadership: Before Someone Else Writes the Rules- The Road Ahead: Act Now or Get Left BehindTune in to the full episodes:🎥https://youtu.be/Vj8JXBkD4OQ (Microsoft AI & Clinical Context)🎥https://youtu.be/yjqhF-coM_w (Patient Delay & Missed Diagnosis)🎥https://youtu.be/vCBOSzMRk-s (Clinician Leadership, Medicine & Dentistry)Referenced in the show:🖇️Blog (2025): The Path to Medical Superintelligence - https://microsoft.ai/new/the-path-to-medical-superintelligence/Connect with us:Dr. Junaid Kalia, Neurocritical Care Specialist and Founder of Savelife.AI™💼LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/junaidkaliamd 🔗Website - https://www.junaidkalia.com/ 📹YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@junaidkaliamd Dr. Harvey Castro, ER Physician, #DrGPT™💼LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/harveycastromd/ 🔗Website - https://www.harveycastromd.com/ 📷Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/harveycastromd/?hl=en 📑 Substack - https://harveycastromd.substack.com/ Edward Marx, CEO, Advisor 💼LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/edwardmarx/ 🔗Website - https://www.marxadvisory.com/ 📹YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@EdwardMarx Visit our website:https://signalandsymptoms.com/Get advisory insights about Healthcare AI — at zero cost:https://junaidkaliamd.substack.com/

  • What Hospitals Actually Need Before They'll Deploy Your AI
    May 19 2026

    Will AI eliminate primary care — or finally give primary care physicians their time back?

    That's the central question driving this episode, as Dr. Junaid Kalia, Dr. Harvey Castro, and Ed Marx sit down with Dr. John Dayton — an ER physician who has evaluated healthcare startups as an angel investor, built pilots at Intermountain Ventures, and is now raising a $5M fund. He brings a rare view of what AI looks like from the bedside, the boardroom, and the cap table. Dr. Dayton maps how AI decisions actually get made inside health systems: why a technology has to align with the CEO's mission, the CFO's budget, the CTO's existing stack, and clinical staff's real workflow — and why losing any one of those four is where most implementations quietly stall.

    For physicians and healthcare enthusiasts who want to separate signal from noise — and understand whether the tools landing on their unit deserve to be there — this is the peer-to-peer analysis that conference keynotes never deliver.

    What You Will Discover:

    - Intro: John Dayton's origin story

    - Why He Never Really Left Medicine

    - How hospitals actually make AI decisions

    - Is an MBA worth it if it's not free?

    - The Decision Making Approach Inside Health Systems

    - The Two Questions Nobody Answers Directly

    It's not about whether AI is ready for clinical use. It's about whether clinicians are ready to guide patients who are already using it.
