  Dr. Katrina Skinner joins Chip this week to talk about building an independent pediatric practice from the ground up — and why the mindset of a CEO can be just as important as clinical expertise. Dr. Skinner shares how she went from a teenage hospital employee asking to shadow surgeons to opening her own practice immediately after residency, the lessons she learned about entrepreneurship and delegation, and why pediatricians need to spend more time doing what only they can do, as well as more of what they love to do.

  Aug 7, 20261h 9mS1

  Dr. Christoph Diasio joins Chip Hart for a wide-ranging conversation about the challenges—and extraordinary promise—of modern pediatrics.

Drawing on his experience building a fully integrated behavioral health program, Dr. Diasio explains why every child deserves access to mental healthcare and describes his effort to create a pediatric supergroup capable of expanding that model across North Carolina. Throughout the discussion, he makes a compelling case for physician leadership, greater investment in children, and the courage to keep asking, “Why not?”
