What happens when innovation outpaces implementation — and patients can't wait for Q3?
Dr. Clifton Watt is a practicing cardiologist, Executive Medical Director at UCSF, and former software engineer who has spent his career living at the intersection of those two worlds. In this episode, he shares where cardiology is ripe for disruption, why access to care is the real bottleneck technology needs to solve, and how wearables, remote monitoring, and pharmacist-led care teams could fundamentally redesign who delivers care, where, and when. Plus: why patients showing up with AI-generated diagnoses is making every clinical visit more complex.
