このコンテンツについて

Not every doctor dreams of climbing the traditional ladder. Some dream of building their own. Doctors Making a Difference, hosted by Dr. Peter Crane, tells the stories we rarely hear, of physicians who dared to ask, “Is this all there is?” and then changed their lives to answer it. These are the moments after burnout, after bureaucracy, after sacrifice. When purpose called louder than protocol. Each week, listeners meet doctors who stepped off the expected path—into roles as entrepreneurs, advocates, creatives, and leaders redefining what it means to heal. They didn’t just survive medicine. They made it theirs.Copyright 2025 Doctors Making A Difference

  • Stroke at 42: How Dr. Shaiba Ansari-Ali Returned to Medicine and Redefined Patient Care
    2025/07/10

    Dr. Shaiba Ansari-Ali had it all dialed in—her dream job in rheumatology, a clinic she loved, and a life she had carefully crafted to balance medicine and motherhood. Then, at just 42 years old, a basilar artery stroke stopped everything.

    In this gripping and inspiring episode, Dr. Ansari-Ali walks us through the moment her world turned upside down—while wide awake and fully aware. She takes us behind the curtain of her own rehab, recovery, and return to clinical life. Along the way, she shares how losing the ability to write, speak clearly, and move with balance didn’t steal her purpose—it reshaped it.

    Now a passionate advocate for patient communication, stroke awareness, and health literacy, Dr. Ansari-Ali is using every tool—books, YouTube, humor, and humility—to make medicine more accessible. Her channel Mansplaining Medicine and her book When the Doctor Has a Stroke are proof that sometimes, the most powerful healers are those who’ve sat in the patient’s chair.

    This episode is about resilience, reinvention, and remembering why we got into medicine in the first place.

    Highlights include:

    • Facing a stroke at 42 with no Plan B—and forging a path forward anyway
    • Rebuilding clinical skills, one twisty tongue-twister and injection at a time
    • The surprising disconnect between doctors and patients—and how to fix it
    • Why health literacy is the ultimate form of patient care
    • Living (and practicing) with purpose and generosity

    Whether you’re in the middle of a setback or simply wondering how to practice with more intention, Dr. Ansari-Ali’s story will stay with you.

    About the Guest:

    Dr. Shaiba Ansari-Ali is a board-certified rheumatologist, stroke survivor, and unshakable patient advocate based in Chicago. After a devastating basilar artery stroke, she returned to medicine not just to see patients—but to transform how doctors teach, explain, and connect.

    She is the author of When the Doctor Has a Stroke, a short and compelling guide that offers both physicians and patients a window into recovery and resilience. Through her YouTube channel Mansplaining Medicine, she breaks down complex conditions with clarity, context, and just enough sass.

    Her life and work are a masterclass in choosing purpose, listening deeply, and leading with heart.

    Top 3 Key Takeaways:
    1. There is no Plan B for purpose. When life changes in an instant, our mission doesn’t disappear—it just asks us to adapt.
    2. Clarity is a form of care. Health literacy isn’t fluff—it’s survival. The best doctors speak human.
    3. Healing isn’t always linear. Sometimes the most profound transformation happens after the fall.

    About the Host:

    About the Show:

    Doctors Making a Difference is more than a podcast—it’s a movement to highlight the good, the gritty, and the deeply human side of medicine.

  • The $5 Billion Problem in Healthcare—and How Doctors Can Fix It
    2025/07/03

    This episode features Dr. Bart Rademaker, a world-renowned plastic surgeon whose passion for healing spans both borders and disciplines. From his practice in the U.S. to his selfless humanitarian work throughout Central America, Dr. Rademaker is living proof that medicine can be a tool for both transformation and global impact.

    A former Nobel Peace Prize nominee for his international efforts, Dr. Rademaker shares the harsh financial realities facing today’s physicians—especially procedural specialists. Many doctors find themselves in emergency situations, providing life-saving care, only to remain unpaid due to insurance loopholes and out-of-network issues. Shockingly, an estimated $5 billion in medical services go uncompensated each year.

    He offers a candid look at why most physicians struggle with financial independence—often not achieving it until their mid-50s—and explains how a mindset shift is essential. “Doctors are great at healing, but bad at managing money,” he says. The solution? Learn to play the financial game to sustain your practice and your mission.

    Dr. Rademaker highlights how partnering with a recovery firm like Callagy Recovery is essential to navigate the complexities of the No Surprises Act (2022) and recover payments within the required 30-day window.

    If you're a physician who wants to continue making a difference and build a financially sound future, this episode is a must-listen. Because when doctors are empowered, communities thrive.

    🌍 Growth. Contribution. Sustainability. It all starts with reclaiming your autonomy.

  • Confidently Autistic: Dr. Mary Doherty on Neurodiversity in Medicine
    2025/06/26

    In this compelling episode, we sit down with Dr. Mary Doherty—an anesthesiologist from Ireland who brings both professional expertise and lived experience as an autistic and ADHD-diagnosed individual. A powerful advocate for neurodiversity, Dr. Doherty challenges the disease-based model of autism and instead embraces a strengths-based, identity-affirming approach.

    She shares her mission to normalize autism within healthcare and society, highlighting the often-overlooked presence and contributions of autistic physicians. Dr. Doherty emphasizes the importance of raising children to be confidently autistic, free from shame and pressure to conform to neurotypical norms.

    We explore her work supporting autistic healthcare professionals, as well as her co-authorship of "Autistic SPACE"—a groundbreaking framework published in the British Medical Journal that equips clinicians to provide more respectful and effective care to autistic patients.

    This episode is a call to action: to celebrate neurodiversity, to rethink how we define “normal,” and to create inclusive spaces—both in medicine and beyond.
