Wasn’t Pope secretly stockpiling GPUs in The Da Vinci Code?

The Italians are down bad.

The “taxi meter” era of AI has arrived.

The sun shines brighter in NYC with The Knicks in The Finals.

A new rug really ties the room together.

Prescribing medicine is one of the most routine things physicians do, yet It’s also one of the most fragmented. Write the script → Wait for pharmacy callbacks → Coverage issues → Patients surprised by costs at pickup → Try again! Today we’re launching 𝗗𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 where a Physician writes the prescription. Patient gets a text, they pick their pharmacy. Done! Works on any device. Free for verified U.S. physicians, NPs, and PAs. Built in partnership with @photonhealth. The visit. The note. The clinical question. The prescription. One place, one workflow, all inside the Doximity app you already love.

RT @Gabe__MD: This space is moving at a pace that is difficult to comprehend. Almost every single day there is a major new announcement. D…

Two weeks nicotine free. Don’t really crave it but damn is nic a crutch to provide bursts of motivation. Take a break.

Today @doximity and @photonhealth are launching Doximity Prescribe - free prescribing built into the app used by nearly every physician in America. I wrote about how our teams built this. photonhealth.com/blog/buildi…

I miss the era when we could all make fun of MBA kids. Now, a joke at the expense of these jobless MBA grads would just be uncouth.

Most people are too serious in business. It’s almost like they’ve forgotten that all of this is made up!

Congratulations to @ottosipe and the @photonhealth team for achieving this milestone on the journey. It is magical to watch you pursuing your calling. We are so glad you exist in the world. photonhealth.com/blog/series…

One of the joys of this work is to see people grow into true leaders. @ottosipe is making art in an unlikely place - prescription routing for patients, which will bring down the cost of our therapeutics.

Congratulations you’ve been promoted to Sr. Agent Manager II.

I recently sat down with Otto Sipe @ottosipe, founder of @photonhealth, for a podcast episode you won't want to miss. We riffed on the MEDVi debacle, why the NYT whiffed on due diligence, the entire arc from Hims to Cerebral to vibe-coded pill mills, and Otto's vision for AI prescribing modeled after self-driving cars. Otto's April Fool's satire about AI-powered peptide prescriptions literally came true the next day. You can't make this stuff up. This one's a must-listen for anyone thinking about DTC telehealth, pharmacy economics, PBM reform, or where AI meets clinical care.
