How Doctors Think (And Students Don't)

I’m building out our community where I teach live online. For more information, head over to drphiliptisdall.com Why do medical students struggle even when they’re working harder than ever? In this episode of Dr. Tisdall Unfiltered, I break down the biggest mistakes I see students make, why memorization fails, how physicians actually think through clinical problems, and why pathophysiology should be the foundation of medical education. We also discuss clinical reasoning, medical school success, my Clinical Pathophysiology textbook, and the new live community where students can learn medicine the way it is practiced in the real world. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the volume of information in medicine or wondered how top clinicians think through complex patient problems, this conversation is for you.
