Episode 23 - Has the Era of Weight Loss Drugs Changed Medicine Forever?
Obesity is a disease that patients “wear” on the outside of their bodies, making it unlike most other medical conditions. And…Physicians could never have imagined a time when patients came into the office asking them for medications. Shockingly... the era of weight loss medications (GLP1s, semaglutide, tirzepatide) has ushered in one of the biggest philosophical shifts in medicine, with both patients and physicians, completely changing their approach to weight management.
In this culturally-relevant episode of HeART of Medicine, Drs. Kohli and Jazaeri discuss how this class of medications called GLP-1RAs has revolutionized medicine, creating an identity shift in how we think about prevention and medical care. In addition, they also discuss the impacts of GLP1s on the patient-doctor relationship, the impacts of these medications (which over 40% of the country qualifies for) on the healthcare system, their impact on cardiovascular outcomes and even on the culture and perception of obesity.
This is definitely an episode of HeART of Medicine that almost all of us can relate to as we have all been front-row witnesses to the rise of the era of weight-loss medications, a shift that has changed medicine forever and will go down in the history books.

Episode 22 - The Impact of The Big Beautiful Bill on Doctors and Patients
We go to medical school and learn the science of illnesses. We learn how to diagnose and treat diseases, how to take a clinical history and do a physical examination on our patients. But no one teaches doctors and healthcare providers about how the environment in which we practice medicine is so heavily influenced by health policy and politicians, and how it could change overnight!
The Big Beautiful Bill is clearly going to have many ripple effects on healthcare and it’s definitely here to stay! So, it behooves us, providers and patients alike, all to learn about its impact on the practice and utilization of medicine. In the episode of HeART of Medicine, Drs. Kohli and Jazaeri discuss all the nuts and bolts about the new bill, what it means for the practice of medicine and how we can all prepare ourselves for the changes it might bring. They even discuss why it’s so “beautiful”! This is definitely a health policy episode of HeART of Medicine you will not want to miss!
