50:42In this episode we look through the lens of some of my iconic characters. What happens when the Neurologist tries to fix an internet outage or when the Anesthesiologist tackles modern math homework? How would the Internal Medicine Doctor handle a clogged toilet? We explore these hilariously relatable scenarios while sharing their real-life experiences as parents navigating daily chaos. Takeaways: Carpool eavesdropping is a surprising parenting hack that offers insights into preteen lives without intruding on their space. Parenting challenges don’t stop at work , as balancing medical careers and family life requires creativity, humor, and patience. Everyday challenges like internet outages and math homework can be hilariously reframed when imagined through the lens of medical characters. Listening is key to parenting , especially during the preteen years when kids may be reluctant to share openly. Doctors are just as human as anyone else , finding ways to laugh and learn through parenting mishaps and wins. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

41:06In this episode I answer some of the most frequently asked—and occasionally bizarre—questions I get as an ophthalmologist. From whether chlamydia can spread from the eyes to the genitals, to why you should never rub your eyes too hard, I dive into everyday eye concerns with humor and expertise. Takeaways: Pink Eye vs. Conjunctivitis : Pink eye is a lay term often used for infectious conjunctivitis, but conjunctivitis encompasses a wide range of causes, including allergies, autoimmune conditions, and irritants. The Danger of Overwearing Contacts : Wearing contacts for too long can lead to microabrasions and severe dry eye, which may make it impossible to wear them comfortably in the future. Eye Rubbing Risks : Excessive eye rubbing can cause permanent corneal changes or even optic neuropathy in extreme cases. Gentle rubbing is okay, but moderation is key. Retinal Detachment in High Myopes : People with severe nearsightedness (high myopia) are at a greater risk of retinal detachment and should avoid high-impact activities or seek medical care if experiencing flashes, floaters, or a curtain over their vision. UV Light Protection for Cataracts : While cataracts are inevitable with age, wearing UV-blocking sunglasses can help slow their progression and reduce the risk of other eye conditions like macular degeneration and eyelid cancers. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

1:04:42In this episode we delve into the personal and challenging world of Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) with guest Andrew Luber, known online as ARFID Andrew. Kristin shares her own experiences living with ARFID, including how it has shaped her relationship with food, social dynamics, and self-perception. Andrew adds his unique perspective, sharing his journey of trying new foods while documenting his struggles and triumphs on social media. Together, we all unpack the stigma surrounding ARFID, the challenges of navigating a food-centric culture, and the importance of raising awareness for this often misunderstood condition. Takeaways: ARFID is not picky eating —it’s a complex disorder that affects how individuals perceive and interact with food, often causing severe social and emotional challenges. Raising awareness for ARFID helps others understand the condition and reduces stigma for those living with it. Social pressure and safe environments can play a significant role in encouraging exposure to new foods for those with ARFID. Sharing personal stories , like Kristin’s and Andrew’s, can inspire others with ARFID to seek support and self-advocate. Humor and creativity can be powerful tools for spreading awareness and fostering understanding of ARFID. — Want to Learn About Andrew Luber: TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube: @Arfid_Andrew — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

The Power of Second Opinions : He emphasizes the importance of seeking a second opinion for high-cost treatments like LASIK or in-office dry eye therapies to make informed decisions about eye care. Foreign Bodies in Eyes : Dr. Flannery describes the tools and techniques he uses to remove foreign objects, from cat hair to rust rings, showcasing one of the more unusual aspects of his work. Sixth Nerve Palsy Case : He shares a compelling story about a young patient diagnosed with a cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, illustrating the importance of timely and accurate diagnoses in eye care.

1:09:23In this episode we bring another Ophthalmologist into the mix with Dr. Andrew Lam, a retina surgeon, professor, and acclaimed author. We explore the intricate details of retina surgery, including magnets used for extracting metal from the eye and the resilience of the human body in recovering from trauma. Dr. Lam shares his journey from growing up with a cardiologist father to combining his love for history and medicine into bestselling books like Saving Sight and Masters of Medicine . Takeaways: Retina surgery requires precision and resilience , often compared to using “the Force” due to its delicate and intricate nature. Medical complications happen to all surgeons , and addressing them with professionalism and teamwork is key to maintaining patient outcomes. Magnets in ophthalmology can be used to extract intraocular foreign bodies, showcasing the intersection of creativity and medicine. Blending passions in medicine , like Dr. Lam’s love for history and ophthalmology, can lead to fulfilling and impactful careers. Historical medical discoveries are full of drama, rivalry, and serendipity, such as the accidental discovery of penicillin or the innovation of cataract surgery techniques. — Want to Learn About Dr. Andrew Lam: Website: www.AndrewLamMD.com FB: @AndrewLamAuthor Twitter: @Andrew_LamMD Insta: @AndrewLamMD — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

1:03:08In this episode we welcome Dr. Humie, a dentist and TikTok content creator, to discuss the challenges and humor of dentistry. Dr. Humie shares his approach to creating high-quality, hilarious videos on a smartphone, involving his office staff to showcase the lighter side of dental care. We dive into topics like dental phobias, if the dentist chair should be scary, patient anxieties, and the innovative ways social media can make dentistry more approachable. The conversation also explores unique medical overlaps, from eye health to oral health, and the role of storytelling in breaking down barriers between healthcare providers and patients. Takeaways: High-quality content creation doesn’t require expensive equipment—Dr. Humie produces viral videos using just a smartphone and creativity. Dental anxiety is common , but creating a fun, welcoming environment can help patients feel more comfortable. Social media humanizes healthcare , showing the personal side of dentists and creating a connection with patients before they even enter the office. Dentistry overlaps with other medical fields , such as ophthalmology, in surprising ways, like dealing with patient fears and superglue mishaps. Engaging office culture improves morale and inspires creativity, making the workplace enjoyable for both staff and patients. — Want to Learn About Dr. Humie: Instagram and Tik Tok: @dr.humie — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Reflecting on the UnitedHealthcare CEO murder and the public backlash, I unpack common misconceptions about physician compensation and healthcare costs. I also highlight why blaming doctors for rising expenses is misguided and sheds light on where the real money is going. Takeaways: Who’s to Blame for Healthcare Costs? Dr. Flannery debunks the myth that physician salaries are the primary driver of high healthcare costs, pointing out that they account for only 7-8% of total expenditures. UnitedHealthcare’s Role in Healthcare Spending : He discusses how UnitedHealthcare, as the largest employer of physicians, contributes to the systemic issues, highlighting the growing corporatization of healthcare. The Fallout of Physician Burnout : Dr. Flannery explores how declining physician reimbursements and increasing workloads are fueling burnout and compounding healthcare challenges. Diabetes and Cataract Surgery Complications : A detailed surgical case highlights how diabetes and vitrectomy history can complicate cataract removal, emphasizing the importance of early intervention. Healthcare Advocacy vs. Misdirected Blame : The episode underscores the need for constructive advocacy and accountability, focusing on systemic reform rather than targeting physicians unfairly. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

35:38In this episode I discuss my thoughts the shocking murder of United Healthcare’s CEO, Brian Thompson, and the complex emotions it has sparked on social media. I reflect on the power of advocacy versus violence in addressing systemic healthcare issues and explains the role of public outrage in driving legislative change. Alongside this, I answer engaging questions from fans about sclera discoloration, Bell’s phenomenon, and the difference between private practice and academic medicine. Takeaways: UnitedHealthcare Controversy : Dr. Flannery addresses the public reaction to the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, emphasizing the importance of constructive advocacy over violent acts for systemic reform. Bell’s Phenomenon in Eye Protection : He explains why the eyes naturally roll upward when closed, a reflex that protects the cornea and is useful in certain medical treatments but can be challenging during surgeries like cataract procedures. Why Scleras Aren’t Always White : From aging and jaundice to sun damage and racial melanosis, Dr. Flannery discusses the common reasons behind scleral discoloration and what may require medical evaluation. Stye Season Hits Hard : A surge in chalazion excisions has marked Dr. Flannery’s recent weeks, showcasing the prevalence of blocked oil glands and their straightforward treatment in ophthalmology. The State of Private Practice : Dr. Flannery shares his preference for private practice over academic medicine, discussing the benefits of autonomy, patient focus, and avoiding research responsibilities. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

40:16In this episode I dive into my list of the top five things I would never do as an ophthalmologist, from using Visine to playing with fireworks. I also explores the critical connection between nutrition and eye health, detailing how vitamin deficiencies like B1 and vitamin A can lead to conditions such as Wernicke’s encephalopathy and xerophthalmia. Takeaways: Top 5 Things Ophthalmologists Avoid : Dr. Flannery shares his professional no-nos, including using Visine, playing with fireworks, using bungee cords, sleeping in contact lenses, and delaying cataract surgery, all of which carry significant risks to eye health. The Dangers of Vitamin A Deficiency : A lack of vitamin A can lead to night blindness, xerophthalmia, and corneal scarring, underscoring the importance of a vitamin-rich diet. B Vitamins and Eye Health : Dr. Flannery explains how deficiencies in thiamine (B1) and folate (B9) can cause nutritional optic neuropathy and Wernicke’s encephalopathy, both of which may result in vision loss. Humor Meets Eye Safety : True to his style, Dr. Flannery uses humor to explain the dangers of fireworks, bungee cords, and other seemingly harmless activities that can cause serious eye injuries. Preventing Nutritional Eye Disorders : Maintaining a balanced diet with leafy greens, carrots, and other nutrient-rich foods can protect against preventable eye conditions and support overall eye health. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

54:12In this episode we reflect on the realities of balancing work, marriage, and medicine. We tackle questions on work-life balance in healthcare, debating how different generations of doctors view medicine—as a calling versus a job. We also share personal anecdotes about how we navigate life as a couple working together while also managing a family, including funny moments about bickering, learning to let go, and setting boundaries. Takeaways: Balancing work and marriage in medicine requires intentional time together, even if it's just a few minutes each day. Work-life balance is increasingly important for younger generations of doctors, challenging traditional expectations in medicine. Effective communication and mutual support are essential for partners in high-demand careers to thrive together. Generational shifts in medicine reflect changing attitudes toward work-life balance, highlighting the impact of corporatized healthcare. Outsourcing tasks —like housekeeping—can be a practical way for medical professionals to free up time for each other. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!
