Amit Phull, Chief Clinical Experience Officer at Doximity and a practicing emergency medicine physician, joins Christina Farr to talk about how the company reached 85% of US physicians and what it plans to do with that reach in the AI era. They get into Doximity's survey finding that more than 80% of clinicians wouldn't recommend a career in medicine, a definition of burnout as "investment in a system you no longer feel you have influence over," and Amit's answer to Silicon Valley's favorite mantra: "move fast, but don't spill your drink." They also discuss the coming benchmarking era for healthcare AI, and how Doximity is approaching new competition from OpenEvidence without, as Amit puts it, going low.
