The Poop Question GI Doctors Are Tired of Hearing with Dr. Kaveh Hoda

we welcome back Dr. Kaveh Hoda—gastroenterologist, musician, podcaster, and accidental poop ambassador. We discuss what life is really like as a GI doc (spoiler: it’s not all about poop), how Match Day can go terribly wrong—or surprisingly right—and why some residents get influenced by... ultimate frisbee. Kaveh also opens up about his path into medicine, his Persian music background, and his worst interview story (hint: it involves casual racism and a dental drill). But it wouldn’t be a Glaucomflecken episode without a little absurdity—like when we brainstorm ways for UnitedHealthcare to get even more terrifyingly vertically integrated. Takeaways: A heartfelt moment during CPR left Kristin questioning if med school was even worth it. Will’s proposed test for letting your child go to med school involves a brutal prior auth simulation. The NIH funding freeze isn’t just theoretical—it’s dismantling real labs, careers, and discoveries.
