Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guests: Cadman L. Leggett, M.D., and Chamil C. Codipilly, M.D. Occasional heartburn from gastroesophageal reflux is usually nothing more than an occasional nuisance for most patients.  However, when the reflux becomes chronic, it can become more serious.  One complication is Barrett’s esophagus. On occasion, Barrett’s can develop into esophageal adenocarcinoma, an aggressive malignancy with a survival rate of only around 20% at 5 years.  Although usually seen in those with chronic acid reflux, Barrett’s can occasionally occur in those without any clinical evidence of acid reflux.  When should a patient with acid reflux receive an upper endoscopy?  What’s the significance of finding Barrett’s esophagus on an endoscopy?  How often does Barrett’s develop into esophageal cancer and does treatment prevent this from happening?  In this podcast, these are just some of the questions I’ll be asking our guests, Cadman L. Leggett, M.D., and Chamil C. Codipilly, M.D., both from the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss Barrett’s Esophagus.

In this Heartline Echo Episode, I revisit a powerful conversation with Drs. Maryanna Barrett and Maria Paasch, two innovative OB-GYNs who have transformed their practice by integrating functional medicine. Their journey from traditional obstetrics and gynecology to a more holistic approach offers valuable insights for healthcare professionals seeking to enhance patient care and rediscover their passion for medicine. Our discussion explores the essence of functional medicine, challenging the conventional "collection of body parts" approach to healthcare. We delve into how this integrative method looks at the body as an interconnected system, seeking root causes rather than merely treating symptoms. Key insights from our conversation include: The definition and principles of functional medicine How functional medicine complements conventional approaches The importance of addressing the mind-body connection in patient care Strategies for incorporating functional medicine into traditional medical practices Discover how to: Recognize and respond to signs of professional burnout Align your medical practice with your personal values Navigate career transitions in healthcare Cultivate a unique contribution to medicine that reflects your passions and strengths This episode offers a candid look at the challenges and rewards of charting a new course in medicine. Drs. Barrett and Paasch share their experiences of overcoming fears, redefining success, and finding greater fulfillment in their work. "Recognize that that feeling isn't because your schedule's too full, you've worked too many days in a row. That feeling is probably telling you that what you're doing is in conflict with your value." This conversation provides inspiration and practical advice for healthcare professionals who feel constrained by conventional systems or are searching for ways to better serve their patients. It's a call to action for physicians to reclaim their role as leaders in healthcare and pursue innovative approaches that align with their values. Join us for this thought-provoking discussion that challenges the status quo in medicine and offers a vision for a more integrated, patient-centered approach to healthcare. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or just starting your medical journey, this episode will inspire you to listen to your heart and pursue a path that truly resonates with your calling in medicine.

Sophia Kim has spent her career breaking molds, and building better models for leadership and care delivery. From her early start navigating journalism and consulting to leading high-growth teams in healthcare, Sophia’s path has been shaped by adaptability, ambition, and a commitment to creating change that matters. In this episode of Inspiring Women with Laurie McGraw, Sophia shares her journey from balancing a demanding consulting career with raising two young children to finding her footing in healthcare leadership - without a clinical background, but with a deep understanding of people, systems, and what real innovation requires. She talks about: How she’s helping rethink access to heart care through virtual-first models — and why bold ideas are needed to meet today’s healthcare challenges. The leadership lessons she’s carried from consulting rooms to executive suites — including why being able to “be like water” has been essential to growth. How women leaders can create space not just for themselves, but for the next generation. Why technology must always serve people first — and how to balance innovation with the human experience. Sophia’s story is about more than business growth. It’s about resilience, reinvention, and the power of leading with both strategy and heart.

In this ViVE conference edition of HITea With Grace, I sit down with Nadine Peever, health IT expert, for a powerful conversation at the intersection of technology, care coordination, and women’s health. Nadine brings both deep professional expertise and lived experience to the table. As someone who’s worked across the healthcare data landscape—and personally navigated the complexities of the system while managing endometriosis—she offers a rare, dual-perspective on why interoperability isn't just a tech problem, it's a patient care problem. In this episode, we explore: The biggest current gaps in health information exchange—and what it means for real-world care The impact of legal and regulatory constraints on data sharing, and how policy can help or hinder progress How her own journey with endometriosis revealed the serious consequences of fragmented data and delayed diagnoses Where AI and clinical decision support tools can meaningfully improve care for patients with complex, underdiagnosed conditions like endometriosis This conversation gets to the heart of how interoperability and innovation can (and must) serve patients, especially those who have historically been overlooked in health system design and data strategies. Nadine’s voice is a crucial one—grounded in technical knowledge, policy awareness, and the kind of insight only lived experience can offer. Tune in and follow HITea With Grace for more conversations with women transforming healthcare from the inside out.
