Bradley Block, MD, is a private practice otolaryngologist on
Long Island, New York, where he lives with his wife and three young sons. He is
a partner at ENT
and Allergy Associates and creator of the Physician’s Guide to Doctoring
Podcast.
He realized that rapport was the key to gaining trust, seeing
patients efficiently, enjoying his practice, and building his reputation. He
tried to find a podcast that would help him improve at doctor-patient
communication, but there was none, so he created Physician’s Guide to
Doctoring! The topics quickly expanded to “everything we should have been
learning while we were memorizing Kreb’s Cycle,” and it is now a practical guide
for practicing physicians, physicians-in-training and all allied health
professionals. He is available as a keynote speaker on improving the patient
experience, doctor-patient communication, and running office-hours efficiently.
Brad, or Dr. Block as his parents call him, went to med
school at SUNY Buffalo and graduated with research honors. He then went on to his
ENT residency at Georgetown. He enjoys spending time with his family, surfing
(yes, there is surfing on Long Island), skiing (there is no skiing on Long
Island), smoking meat, exercising, and finding any excuse to quote an 80s
movie. “I’m not saying I’d build a summer home here, but the trees are actually
quite lovely.”
Dr. Block is available as a healthcare consultant and medical
expert witness for general otolaryngology – head and neck surgery cases. To
