When a Patient Mistreats a Clinician
Op-Med is a collection of original articles contributed by Doximity members. It started with the usual request from a resident to check up on a patient and confirm his history. I introduced myself, and the patient and I talked about what brought him to the hospital: leg pain/edema and lymphadenopathy. As I was wrapping up the history, I began the physical exam: auscultating his heart and lungs as well as carefully examining his leg for signs of infection, extent of swelling, and lymphadenopathy.
N-of-One Clinical Trials: A Scientific Approach to Personalized Medicine for Patients with Rare Retinal Diseases
Op-Med is a collection of original articles contributed by Doximity members. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a group of inherited retinal degenerative diseases with a prevalence of approximately 1:4000, affecting 2 million persons globally. RP is genetically heterogeneous (associated with >3000 mutations in ~100 genes). Currently, there are more than 50 retinal gene therapy, clinical trials, most of which are for relatively rare diseases such as RP.
'Fee-for-Service on Steroids': How Corporations Are Taking Over Medicine
Op-Med is a collection of original articles contributed by Doximity members. As a young physician, I defended fee-for-service medicine based on principles of professional work ethic and autonomy. Of course, that was in the realm of private practice, the model in which most of my colleagues were engaged when I began practice in 1987.
How I Unshackled Myself From Academic Medicine
Op-Med is a collection of original articles contributed by Doximity members. Throughout residency and fellowship, I was inspired by physicians who could diagnose pneumonia without an X-ray or who could spend just 45 minutes with a patient before uncovering a diagnosis that had stumped our team for days. Others could transform contentious goals of care conversations into moments of connection and healing. To me, they seemed like wizards.
Election anxiety? Here’s a guide to practicing medicine in Canada.
Oh, Canada! Every presidential election cycle, my colleagues joke that if the election result is not to their liking, they will move to Canada.

COVID-19 has urgently summoned telemedicine to the front lines
For thousands of years, medicine was an in-person enterprise. Patients with mysterious symptoms or requiring complex interventions traveled days to obtain an expert opinion. At times, Medicine appears to be nostalgic for these days now past; as society braces for the advent of 5G, many of us in medicine communicate via pager and landline telephones. The potential of telemedicine – the use of technology to remotely deliver patient care – has laid dormant for many years.

At Life's End, The Gift Of Intimacy
An elderly couple sits on a bench in a park in this 2014 file photo. (Martin Meissner/AP) I met Charles, a self-proclaimed foodie, while he was being treated for esophageal cancer. The tumor had narrowed his esophagus, making it hard to enjoy his chipotle-rubbed steaks. He had lost 30 pounds in a few months and had constant throat pain and nausea. As his palliative care doctor, I helped make his pain and nausea tolerable during his increasingly frequent hospital admissions.
PnP Taxonomy Picker - Set Dynamic termset id
This post relates to the taxonomy picker from PnP. An example of using it in your javascript and html would be as: This will render a textbox and provide terms selection for the assigned termsetid ‘81c6dc2a-8afb-4cf5-bd5c-8e515b154485?. But for scenarios where the termsetid is dynamic or say you want to initialize a starting value(term) to the textbox, if you call the above function dynamically when needed, it ends up rendering a new textbox with taxonomy picker each time.
