Physician burnout isn't just a wellness issue, it's a business problem.

On this week's episode of The Med-Legal Greenroom, Sam Frentzas sat down with Dr. Joe Sherman, physician, executive coach, and 37-year veteran of medicine, to unpack what's really driving burnout across practices of every size.

They talked about:
🩺 Why the "business of medicine" and the "culture of medicine" so often collide
🩺 How burnout quietly shows up first, in charting delays, disengagement, and slipping patient care
🩺 Why physician turnover can cost 2–3x an annual salary, and what leadership can do before it gets there
🩺 The one shift solo practice owners AND large healthcare organizations both need to make

If you lead a practice, manage physicians, or invest in healthcare, this conversation will change how you think about retention.

👉 Dr. Sherman is also offering a complimentary consultation for leaders looking to address this in their own organization.

Consider the difference between a photograph of a bridge and an engineering assessment of how it responds to movement and load.

Both provide valuable information.

But they answer different questions.

The spine is also a load-bearing, moving structure.

MRI and radiographs can provide essential information about anatomy, alignment, and pathology.

Yet some clinical questions involve what happens when spinal segments move or experience loading.

That distinction is worth exploring.

Because understanding structure is not always the same as understanding behavior.

Two experienced clinicians review the same spinal imaging study.

Could they reach different interpretations?

In some areas of spinal assessment, yes.

Differences in measurement technique, diagnostic thresholds, and interpretation can contribute to variability.

This isn't criticism of clinical expertise.

It's a reminder that even experienced clinicians benefit from standardized, reproducible information.

The important question is not whether clinical judgment matters.

Of course it does.

Right now, there are only about a dozen surgeons in the country who focus on surgery to treat chronic pain through the peripheral nervous system.

A dozen. For a problem affecting millions.

Dr. Demetrio Aguila, President & CEO of Total Pain Solutions, isn't just treating patients; he's working to fix that math. He's training the next generation of surgeons through fellowship programs, with a goal of growing this specialty from a dozen doctors today to a thousand in 10 years, and 10,000 in 20.

This isn't just about one doctor solving one patient's pain. It's about making sure "there's nothing that can be done" stops being the default answer for good.

In modern medicine, objective measurement drives clinical decisions.

Blood pressure.

Cardiac output.

Bone density.

Joint alignment.

Yet when evaluating certain spinal conditions, questions about abnormal segmental motion can remain difficult to answer.

A static image can show where vertebrae are positioned.

But position alone does not fully describe how a spinal segment behaves during movement.

How much does it move?

Is that movement abnormal?

Is the measurement reproducible?

These questions matter when evaluating suspected instability.

Your patient says, "It hurts."
The X-ray says nothing. The CT scan says nothing. The MRI says nothing.

Now what?

In this clip from The Med-Legal Greenroom Podcast, Dr. Louis Saeger explains one of the biggest challenges in treating spine injuries: patients often arrive with plenty of imaging and still no convincing evidence of what's actually wrong. Facet injuries, for example, are often invisible on standard scans.

So the pain is real, but the proof isn't there. That's where patients get dismissed and cases stall.

A patient has persistent back pain.

The MRI reveals multiple degenerative findings.

The X-rays show structural changes.

But one critical question remains:

Seeing abnormality and identifying the source of pain are not always the same thing.

Modern imaging gives clinicians extraordinary anatomical detail. Yet when several abnormalities coexist, determining clinical significance can still be challenging.

The next opportunity in spinal diagnostics may not simply be producing clearer pictures.

It may be finding better ways to connect anatomical findings with how the spine actually functions.

At 12, a boy was a passenger in a car crash. For the next six years he lived with stabbing upper back pain every time he reached or turned. The imaging never showed anything, and he was told nothing was really wrong.

Then Dr. Louis Saeger ran a VMA® (Vertebral Motion Analysis) and found marked instability at an upper lumbar level. He treated it on a Thursday. On Saturday morning, the boy's mother called him in tears: her son was outside playing basketball, pain-free.

In his second appearance on The Med-Legal Greenroom Podcast, Dr. Louis Saeger, Medical Director at HyperCharge Health, joins host Sam Frentzas to share what changed after nearly a year of using VMA® (Vertebral Motion Analysis) in his practice.

Key takeaways from the conversation:

1️⃣ Objective data closes the diagnostic gap. In one week alone, VMA® findings gave two patients documented evidence of instability and subluxation that conventional imaging had missed, including C1-C2 instability that flexion-extension MRI did not show.

2️⃣ Precise diagnosis leads to targeted treatment. Patients who had lived with pain for five years or more responded to targeted regenerative (PRP) interventions once the actual source was identified. One patient regained her ability to read; another, injured at 12, was playing basketball pain-free within days.

3️⃣ Objective findings matter in med-legal cases. With quantified evidence in hand, attorneys have a solid basis to move a claim forward and treatment can proceed.

4️⃣ A proven model is a scalable model. That success is giving Dr. Saeger the confidence to bring VMA® to a new venture: a high-end regenerative medicine and diagnostic spa in Las Vegas.

“T𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗴𝗻𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝘄𝗼 𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀”

Imagine two X-rays.

One taken in flexion.

One taken in extension.

Each is a static image.

Now consider the question we're actually trying to answer:

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺?

In spinal instability, the clinically meaningful information may not only be the starting position or the ending position.

It may be the motion itself.

How does one vertebral segment move relative to another?

When does abnormal translation occur?

Is the movement consistent throughout the motion?

Could two patients with similar static images behave very differently dynamically?

These aren't arguments against X-ray.

They're questions about the limits of what any individual static image can tell us about a moving biomechanical system.

Medicine has become extraordinarily good at seeing anatomy.

The next frontier may be understanding how that anatomy behaves.

Because sometimes the most important diagnostic information isn't contained in either image.

“W𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘂𝗽?”

Most patients don't experience their symptoms laying perfectly still inside an MRI scanner.

They experience them:

Standing.

Walking.

Bending.

Extending.

Rotating.

Under load.

That distinction matters.

Conventional lumbar MRI is commonly performed with the patient supine and unloaded.

But spinal geometry can change with position and loading.

Research into weight-bearing and positional MRI has reported changes in measurements such as foraminal dimensions and spinal alignment compared with conventional supine imaging.

𝗦𝗼, 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀:

A patient has significant symptoms during standing or movement.

Their conventional MRI doesn't completely explain those symptoms.

𝗜𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗻𝗲𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗼𝗯𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺 𝗶𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝗼𝗰𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴?

Static imaging remains essential.

But spine pathology doesn't always behave statically.

And that difference deserves more attention.
