Great perspectives, fun host
I learn or hear something new every time. Bradley strikes that perfect balance between professional development and knowledge with casual and engaging conversation you’d have with someone if you were just hanging out.

Great Show
Dr. Block is an expert at helping physicians learn the necessary skills to succeed in medicine that weren’t taught in med school. If you’re a doctor, this show is a must listen.

Succeed in Medicine
I have listened to dozens of Dr. Block’s podcasts over the years. Many of them have not only been informative and entertaining, but inspiring also. In one of the recent ones, for example,Dr Peter Crane, told his story of self discovery of his own cancer and how this led to a changed perspective in healing his own patients.
Another recent podcast with Dr. Jonathan Weinkle was absolutely fascinating in hearing how he brings ancient Hebrew prayer ritual into the exam room. As I said, there are dozens more podcasts I could extol, but bottom line, I highly recommend these podcasts by Dr Bradley Block. They have enriched my life.

How to succeed in life as a physician
Brad has been teaching physicians all the skills and knowledge we need to be great humans. How to succeed at home in our marriages and parenting. How to show up better for our patients. How to show up better for ourselves. How to slow down and enjoy this crazy ride. Thank you for all you do for docs, Brad!

Best medical podcast for physicians
Dr. Bradley Block’s podcast has been a staple show in my ears for many years now. It is the best medical podcast for helping physicians navigate being physicians and taking the best care of patients that they can in spite of our current healthcare system. I particularly enjoy his recurrent theme of communication strategies. I am always impressed at how good he is at asking poignant questions, distilling down complex ideas into simple one-liners, and generating action items for himself and listeners to take to get the most out of each episode.

Indispensable for physicians
As a practicing physician, I have learned so much from this show that has helped my practice and life.
I love the new title because it helps to “succeed” in medicine in whatever way succeed means to the listener.

Easy & Informative Listen
A while back I stumbled upon 'Physician’s Guide to Doctoring' and it has quickly become one of my favorite podcasts!

Each episode is thoroughly researched, engaging, and sprinkled with humor, making complex topics accessible. Whether you're a physician or simply interested in the healthcare field, this podcast is a must-listen!

Great for Academics!
Wowser! Brad has found the perfect balance of entertainment, intellectual discussion, and compelling topics, not to mention some amazing guests. His disarming interview style is a thing to be hold. He dives deep without getting too heavy, and gets to the heart. Of his topics in an entertaining yet efficient manner. As an academic surgeon scientist, I really value Brad’s perspective, and that of the guests he brings on. This is my one stop shop for continuing (art of) medical education.

Brad is the Man
Been an avid listener of podcasts for a long time, first found Brad through D.O. or Do Not and have loved his candor and how he approaches each guest and topic with such a wonderful heart for medicine. Great storyteller and amazing dude. If you don’t know about his newsletters sign up for them they are so nice.

This podcast is super useful for physicians. It has practical, boots on the ground type advice that can be immediately applied in our everyday work. I really enjoyed listening, and I want to thank Brad and his guests for providing such a useful tool for all of us. Thank you!

Great tips for practicing physicians
I just listed to episode 356 with the founder of Physician Accelerator. Loved the tip of having your patients write a thank you card to PCP. As a fellow ENT physician I love seeing colleagues doing great work and providing values to the profession. Keep it up!

Love the podcast and I am not in the medical world.
I came across the podcast by accident. I will spare you the journey, but what I found was a very informative and interesting podcast. The host is brilliant and charismatic, the guests are leaders in their field and the topics seem to be quite vast. Yes this podcast is not necessarily meant for me (non medical) but I find synergies from topics I want to learn more about, to getting a more inside perspective on what my friends and family deal with as medical professionals.

Love the variety
I really like the variety of topics, things I wouldn’t really even think I’d be interested in I enjoy listening to.

Very inspirational and needed!
I deeply respect Dr Blocks ability to deliver proper care in the multiple fields and get the most out of his interviews.

Inspiration renewed!
I am a PGY3 and have been on an ongoing search to establish myself (or rather affirm my “brand”) beyond my residency experience. After listening to episode 139, I couldn’t be more inspired!! I was so connected with the message, which was delivered so beautifully.
I hope that others who, like me, have been looking for inspiration and meaning and can likewise find it through the experiences of others.
Of note, this is my FIRST podcast review. I really felt the need to let you know how meaningful this was for me. Thank you, Dr Block, for that episode and thank you for this podcast.

Dr. Who smokes
The other episodes, financial stuff, FIRE and all that is awesome, but the best episode is the one you talk about smoking meat.
We need you to talk more about that

How To Make Your Patients Laugh
The importance of this podcast cannot be overstated especially in these uncertain times. Patients are caught in the middle of all these changes and it is so incumbent upon providers to help them feel at ease.
As they say, “Laughter is the best medicine!”
Bravo, Dr. Bradley! Bravo 👏👏

Content fits the Title!!
Dr. Block stays true to the podcast title. He keeps the content relevant to the ever changing landscape of doctoring (or health care delivery...). Bradley’s guests are often at the edge of the envelope and often opening the listeners’ eyes to the direction where clinical medicine is headed. He asks the questions which evoke practical and applicable responses for the contemporary clinician. Even with topics I am not so interested in, I come away from each episode with at least one, but often more, pearls for my practice, lifestyle or approaches to maintaining sanity, balance and productivity.

Great guest, COVID expert, interrupted a lot
Really loved this show, had it passed on by a friend. A dynamic speaker, she used down to earth ways of explaining complex info about epidemiology, statistics, disease transmission, and cases of COVID spread.
It was frustrating how often she was saying something interesting and the (male) host interrupted and talked over her. (She used classic woman-interrupted techniques: cheerfully agreed, raised her own voice, and kept talking over him in turn to complete her thoughts... but it was hard to follow her point with him still talking.) Maybe interrupt guests less, smart guy, especially women since that's a thing men do to women constantly, or just do a solo podcast and you can do all the talking.

antidote to burnout
Thank you so much for this generous and wise podcast. I was intrigued by episode #9 on burnout and was empowered to ask for and get dictation to help with EMR
That alone? Total game changer. Really enjoy the guests, the interviews, the questions are spot on
Keep up the great work and thank you!

Fascinating & Engaging
What an informative podcast! As a non-physician I learn so much from listening to Dr. Block and his guests. Physician’s Guide to Doctoring covers many diverse topics from which everyone can benefit!

REFRESHING AND INFORMATIVE - VERY WELL DONE!
There are a lot of podcasts out there competing for our time. This is one of the few that is worthy of our attention. Dr Block does a superb job at choosing guests that have something worthy to share and then gently guides them through a conversation that is both engaging and enjoyable for the listener. Highly Recommended!!!
