Inside the halls of American hospitals, millions of people find comfort, healing, and support. But for many doctors and nurses, this couldn’t be further from the truth.
This podcast will dive into the shadows of American healthcare to investigate and uncover the abuse, control, and political power plays that leave the very people responsible for our nation’s health, broken and battered.
We’re sharing stories of professionals in medicine that have experienced horrendous treatment at the hands of a broken system that does nothing to stop the trauma. As the Association of American Medical Colleges states, “Long before the #MeToo movement, women in medicine have instinctively banded together to counter a culture that too often tolerated harassment.”
From systemic trauma to abuse of power to the unspoken rules of cover-ups and corruption, Mandy Irby and HeHe will take you to the darkest corners of healthcare in America so you can have an inside look at bringing humanity back to medicine!

Ep. 35: When Medical Staff Weaponizes Patient Autonomy
On HeHe's TikTok, a nurse comment on a video explaining patient rights and their right to informed refusal saying, "That's fine. I will just document in your chart that you refused care and we'll see how things happen from there." Whether a patient declines or accepts your clinical suggestion shouldn't dictate how they are treated in the medical system, but HERE WE ARE. This episode covers everything from threatening language and manipulation of patients to consensual and trauma informed care. We packed a ton into this conversation!
