Bias and Heuristics in Clinical Practice with Dr. Zachary Walston PT, DPT, OCS - a podcast by Gino Tobar

Heuristics are mental shortcuts used to make quick decisions and/or provide an acceptable solution in complex or difficult situations. While heuristics are very useful in the clinical setting, they can often lead to prescribing sub-optimal interventions and cognitive biases. In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Zachary Walston PT, DPT, OCS as he helps us unpack how our individual biases and use of heuristics influence patient interactions and clinical decision making.
