In this episode, Dr. Beau Beard and the FARM team sit down with intern Troy Briscoe to unpack his transformative experience at The FARM over the past few months. The conversation takes a deep dive into the real process of professional development—one that goes far beyond textbooks, protocols, and standardized techniques.
Together, they explore why traditional learning methods often fail to prepare young clinicians for the complexity of real-world patient care. Dr. Beard and the team highlight the importance of independent thinking, questioning assumptions, and building your own clinical compass rather than blindly following algorithms.
