When physicians disagree with medical journals

Join infectious disease physician Sami El-Dalati as we delve into the complex issues surrounding medical literature and clinical guidelines. Sami sheds light on the challenges faced by medical providers in delivering patient-centered care, particularly in the context of substance use disorder and endocarditis treatment. We explore the implications of biases and limitations within prominent medical publications and discuss strategies for promoting evidence-based discourse and advocating for optimal patient outcomes.

Sami El-Dalati is an infectious disease physician.

He discusses the KevinMD article, "When your letter to the editor is rejected or ignored."
