About this audiobook
The practical AI guide clinicians have been waiting for.
Artificial intelligence is already changing how medicine is practiced—and many clinicians don't feel ready. AI Curbside fixes that in an afternoon.
Written by a triple board-certified pediatric hematologist/oncologist and clinical informatician who works at the intersection of patient care, clinical research, and AI every day, AI Curbside is an honest, approachable, and practical walkthrough of AI written for physicians. No hype about AI replacing doctors, and no computer-science prerequisites required. Just what AI can do now, where it falls short, and how to use it wisely—starting today.
If you're a physician, medical student, or healthcare leader looking for a clear, clinician-written guide to AI in medicine, start here.
