I’m sorry you’re family doc missed this diagnosis! I’m a family doctor (resident) myself and this is probably my worst nightmare. 9/10 times it would be a varicocele but we always have to be vigilant.

Do you feel like since your diagnosis was missed that you have lost some faith in your primary care physician/primary care in general? What advice would you give to an up and coming primary doc to avoid this from happening to other people similar to yourself?

I’m glad it was eventually sorted out and you are on the road to better health! Thanks and good luck

Hi Dr. Nassar,

I’m a family resident soon to be attending. I had a patients mother request a prescription for a game “endeavorRx” for her child to help treat his adhd. Have you heard of this game? Apparently you need an account and a verified adhd diagnosis to obtain it and play.

This opened my eyes to a potentially unexplored area of medicine. I feel that games providing therapy is definitely an avenue still to be explored for treatment options.

Any plans on doing studies on your games to see if they could potentially be used as treatment modalities? If so, and if they were found to be valid treatments, do you think insurance would cover it as a treatment?

Cheers and congrats! Matt
