Inside the halls of American hospitals, millions of people find comfort, healing, and support. But for many doctors and nurses, this couldn’t be further from the truth. This podcast will dive into the shadows of American healthcare to investigate and uncover the abuse, control, and political power plays that leave the very people responsible for our nation’s health, broken and battered. We’re sharing stories of professionals in medicine that have experienced horrendous treatment at the hands of a broken system that does nothing to stop the trauma. As the Association of American Medical Colleges states, “Long before the #MeToo movement, women in medicine have instinctively banded together to counter a culture that too often tolerated harassment.” From systemic trauma to abuse of power to the unspoken rules of cover-ups and corruption, Mandy Irby and HeHe will take you to the darkest corners of healthcare in America so you can have an inside look at bringing humanity back to medicine!

There are so many red flag practices taught in medical school that are even obvious from the outside looking in. It seems as if the culture of becoming a medical professional teaches out a bit of moral integrity. How does this ultimately impact unit culture and team culture; and how does it impact patient treatment down the line? Mandy and HeHe have not been through medical school or residency, and we’ll share examples with you of what we’ve witnessed and why we’re curious about their mistreatment.
