We explore the powerful intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and appreciative inquiry (AI) in health care. Anesthesiologist Wael Saasouh and health care executive Lisa Scardina share their insights on how technology can support collaboration, boost morale, and improve clinical practice. Joined by physician advocate and physical therapist Kim Downey, we discuss the importance of finding purpose, maintaining healthy connections, and fostering a supportive environment for both clinicians and patients. Discover how positive inquiry and thoughtful AI integration can inspire hope and drive meaningful change in health care.

Wael Saasouh is an anesthesiologist. Lisa Scardina is a health care executive. Kim Downey is a physician advocate and physical therapist.

They discuss the KevinMD article, "The role of AI in improving health care: artificial intelligence and appreciative inquiry."
