the digital

curbside

One tool and one new workflow, every week. A physician's step-by-step guide to using AI effectively in medicine.

By Orr Shauly · Plastic surgeon

One tool per week

Each guide goes deep on a single workflow — not a roundup, not a listicle.

Written by a physician

Tested in a real practice. What survives contact with an actual clinic schedule.

No vendor marketing

No sponsorship, no fluff. Just what genuinely changed how I practice and research.

There are now hundreds of AI tools aimed at physicians, and every week another one lands in my inbox or shows up as a targeted ad promising to change the way medicine gets done. I got tired of hearing that AI was going to transform medicine without anyone actually showing me how — so this is the curbside consult I wish someone had handed me.

On-site guides

Evergreen how-to playbooks hosted on this site for AI workflows and research habits — complementary to the weekly Substack feed.
