Facing Adverse Outcomes and Malpractice Litigation, Part 1

43min | 11/21/2019

Description

Dr. Stacia Dearmin can help us get through adverse patient outcomes and malpractice litigation. She has been through it herself. She is a speaker, coach, consultant and blogger on the topic. She went to medical school at Case Western Reserve and has a masters in religion and ethics from Vanderbilt. She did her residency in pediatrics at Akron Children’s Hospital and worked as a general pediatrician for a few years. She has worked as a pediatric emergency medicine physician since 2004. After working at Case Western Rainbow Babies, she is back at Akron Children’s Hospital. She is the founder of thrivephysician.com, where she focuses exclusively on the well-being of physicians facing adverse outcomes and malpractice litigation. Her experience in practice raised her awareness of the deep pain and isolation that physicians experience after an adverse outcome or in the midst of a lawsuit. She alleviates that isolation and provides insight and support around some of the toughest experiences many physicians will face in their careers. She draws on her personal story to illuminate the experience for physicians and to educate about the needs of physician defendants.

We start out discussing the statistics about how frequently physicians are sued and why we never talk to each other about it. Her own experience with an adverse outcome and lawsuit led to the creation of thrivephysician.com. We learn about the second victim and how being a second victim can take its toll on physicians especially amidst the isolation put upon us by the legal system. We learn how to start recovering.

She has created a course to help us at deposition. "Deposition Magic" is a new course designed to give physician-defendants exactly what they need to know to soar at their own deposition. In a series of brief, friendly videos, you'll explore the nature and purpose of deposition, the goals and tactics of the opposing attorney, and most importantly, the high-integrity mindset and strategies that will serve you as a physician-defendant. Together, we'll exchange confusion and anxiety for clarity and calm, and help you to level the playing field at deposition. Available to you online on-demand, "Deposition Magic" confers up to 3 hrs Category I CME.

About Succeed in Medicine

Was your training enough to handle everything physician life demands? From lawsuits to leadership, career decisions to challenging conversations, balancing the personal with the professional — not enough was addressed in medical school, residency or fellowship. This show fills those gaps so you can live up to the expectations that come with the white coat — not just in the exam room, but in all the places your MD follows you. Your host, Dr. Bradley Block, a private practice ENT, is right there with you — navigating the same challenges and bringing in world-class guests to teach, as he puts it, “everything we should have been learning while we were memorizing Kreb’s cycle.” With nearly 500 episodes and close to half a million downloads, Brad has built a trusted space where physicians come for brass-tacks, immediately-applicable advice. You don’t need another certification. You need a podcast that covers personal finance, private practice, side-gigs, main-gigs, reacting to bad reviews, misinformation, social media, charting, parenting, communicating, negotiating, leading, managing, teaching, learning and what to do when someone yells, “Is there a doctor on board?”
