The Physician's Guide to AI

Featuring 40+ Authors From 9 Medical Specialties

AI is changing medicine faster than any clinician can keep track. LLMs can now draft clinical notes, AI can read scans alongside radiologists, and new clinical decision tools are arriving faster than they can be meaningfully evaluated.

Yet the vast majority of physicians say they still lack a clear picture of how AI is reshaping practice within their own fields.

Until now.

The Physician’s Guide to AI offers a comprehensive look at where AI stands today across 9 different medical specialties: what is working, where it falls short, and what questions remain unanswered. Specialties covered include Internal Medicine, Emergency Medicine, Oncology, Primary Care, Psychiatry, Surgery, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Neurosurgery, and Orthopedics.

The book's authors are frontline physicians, residents, and medical trainees from all across the country who are living and breathing the rapid changes to the medical profession before our eyes.

After reading, you'll learn how:

AI is transforming each medical specialty, from documentation burden and diagnostic accuracy to optimizing operations and scheduling and extending care beyond the clinic.

What the real applications, commercially available tools, and peer-reviewed evidence show in each speciality.

Why the persistent risks of bias, validation, interpretability, regulation, and liability must be taken seriously.

AI can serve to augment clinical judgment, not replace physicians, but only if clinicians have a seat at the table
Every clinician deserves to know what's available and how to best take advantage of this new technology in order to save time, earn more, and practice on your own terms. The Physician’s Guide to AI is the high-yield book every clinician needs to stay ahead and engage with clinical AI thoughtfully and critically.
