Degrees That Differentiate: Strategic Use of Advanced Clinical, Research, and Business Education
Host: Kimberly Beckstrom, C.N.P., D.N.P. Guests: Kimberly Langer, C.N.P., D.N.P.; Lori McGowan, DMSc, PA-C; Brittany Strelow, DMSc, PA-C; Alec Williams, C.N.P., D.N.P. As healthcare grows increasingly complex, organizations need clinicians who can contribute not only through direct patient care, but also through leadership, education, research, innovation, quality improvement, and systems transformation. Nurse practitioners and physician associates are increasingly pursuing advanced clinical, research, and business education to build capabilities that help address healthcare's most pressing challenges and expand their impact across organizations. In this episode, Mayo Clinic NP and PA leaders explore how degrees such as dual certification, DNP, DMSc, PhD, and MBA develop unique skills and perspectives, discuss their impact at both the individual and health system level, and share personal experiences of using advanced education to influence patient care, lead change, advance research, strengthen teams, and improve organizational outcomes. Join us as we examine how healthcare organizations can better leverage multidimensional professionals to drive innovation, solve complex problems, and shape the future of care. The topic for this podcast is Degrees That Differentiate: Strategic Use of Advanced Clinical, Research, and Business Education.

Hearing Loss and Cochlear Implants
Guests: Jim Dornhoffer, M.D. & Matthew Carlson, M.D., M.B.A. Hearing loss can affect individuals of all ages and significantly impair their quality of life. This can result in difficulties with communication, social isolation and possibly even cognitive decline. Unfortunately, many patients with hearing loss are undiagnosed and therefore untreated. There have been numerous advances in the management of hearing loss that could give significant benefit to our patients. How should we assess hearing loss? Who might benefit from hearing amplification? Is there any treatment for tinnitus and who might be a candidate for a cochlear implant? These are all questions I’ll ask my guests, Dr. Matthew Carlson and Dr. Jim Dornhoffer, both ENT physicians at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss the topic of “Hearing Loss and Cochlear Implants”.

Pediatric Transplant: Liver
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Samar Ibrahim, M.B.Ch.B. Primary care clinicians may never encounter a child needing a liver transplant, however when it happens, they play a vital role in the journey for the child, including early recognition of the signs of hepatic failure, timely referral to a hepatologist and co-managing these children with the transplant team following the transplant. Liver transplantation in children has dramatically evolved over the past few decades into a highly successful, life-saving treatment for children with liver failure. What are some of the early signs that a child may need a transplant consideration? What can a child expect following liver transplant, and what role does the primary care clinician play in the long-term follow-up of these children? I’ll be asking these questions of my guest, Dr. Samar Ibrahim, a pediatric gastroenterologist at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Pediatric Liver Transplant”.

Post Graduate Fellowship for NPs and PAs: Building Clinical Excellence and Leadership Readiness
Host: Andy Herber, P.A.-C. Guests: Victoria Clemens, P.A.-C.; Casey Fazer-Posorske, PA-C; Emily Olson, C.N.P., D.N.P.; Alec Williams, C.N.P., D.N.P. As healthcare becomes increasingly specialized and complex, organizations face growing demands for patient access, workforce sustainability, and high-quality care. Nurse practitioners and physician assistants play a critical role in meeting these needs, and postgraduate fellowship programs are gaining recognition as a strategic investment in workforce development. By accelerating specialty expertise, enhancing workforce readiness, and supporting recruitment and retention, fellowships help organizations build the clinical capacity needed to care for patients today while preparing for the healthcare challenges of tomorrow. In this episode, Mayo Clinic NP and PA leaders explore the evolution of postgraduate fellowship training, review the evidence behind these programs, and discuss how fellowships contribute to clinical excellence, professional growth, workforce stability, and leadership development. The topic for this podcast is Post Graduate Fellowship for NPs and PAs: Building Clinical Excellence and Leadership Readiness.

Strabismus: Symptoms, Causes & Treatment
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Erick Bothun, M.D. Normally, our eyes work together, providing us with one single image and providing accurate depth perception. However, when there’s misalignment of the eyes and they don’t point in the same direction, that’s known as strabismus. It’s much more than a cosmetic issue; a variety of complications can develop if strabismus isn’t treated. Primary care clinicians are usually the first healthcare contact of those with strabismus, and it becomes important for us to recognize it and arrange proper referral for management. Does strabismus only occur in children? How does it differ from amblyopia? What is the treatment and how effective is it? I’ll get answers to these questions and more as we discuss “Strabismus: Symptoms, Causes and Treatment” with my guest Dr. Erick Bothun, a pediatric ophthalmologist at the Mayo Clinic.

Sinus Disease and Allergies
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guests: Erin O’Brien, M.D. & Rohit Divekar, M.B.B.S Patients frequently come to primary care with symptoms of nasal congestion, facial pressure, post-nasal drainage and recurrent sinus infections and they often believe their symptoms should be treated with an antibiotic. Determining the underlying cause of the patient’s symptoms, deciding who will benefit from imaging, allergy testing or referral to an ENT or allergy specialist can be challenging. In this podcast, we’ll discuss common misperceptions regarding sinus infections, the relationship between allergy and chronic sinus disease as well as the advances which have been made in both the medical and surgical treatment. Today’s topic is “Sinus Disease and Allergy” and my guests include Dr. Erin O’Brien, from the Department of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery and Dr. Rohit Divekar, from the Division of Allergy and Immunology.

An Update on Glaucoma
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Cheryl L. Khanna, M.D. Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide and is characterized by progressive optic nerve damage often but not always associated with elevated intraocular pressure. When vision loss occurs, it begins insidiously and progresses silently. Many patients are unaware of any eye problems until they become advanced. Although ophthalmologists diagnose and manage those with glaucoma, primary care clinicians play a major role in identifying those at risk, encouraging eye exams, reviewing medications that can increase the risk of glaucoma and reinforcing treatment adherence. What’s the difference between open and closed angle glaucoma? What are the risk factors? When should patients start screening for the condition? These are questions I’ll be asking my guest, Dr. Cheryl Khanna, an ophthalmologist at the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “An Update on Glaucoma”. Connect with us!

Focused Shockwave Therapy for Musculoskeletal Disorders
Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Joshua M. Romero, M.D. Tendon disorders can be difficult to manage, and patients often suffer with chronic symptoms. Traditional treatments such as physical therapy, braces, and steroid injections have shown to be of limited benefit. There’s another treatment option for chronic tendon disorders; focused shockwave therapy. It’s non-invasive and uses acoustic pressure waves to stimulate healing in injured musculoskeletal tissue. So, how effective is it? Which conditions tend to respond best? Does it just relieve pain, or does it actually accelerate healing, and how does the success rate compare to other traditional treatment options? I’ll get answers to these questions from my guest, Dr. Joshua Romero, a sports medicine physician in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the Mayo Clinic. The topic for this podcast is “Focused Shockwave Therapy for Musculoskeletal Disorders”. Connect with us!
