MANHATTAN, N.Y. - March 20, 2015 - PRLog -- NEW YORK, NY – (PR Web – March 20, 2015) – Chief Medical Correspondent for am970 Radio in New York City, Dr. David Samadi, will have Dr. Ben Carson, who is exploring a presidential campaign, on his new radio show, am970 World Health News (http://samadimd.com/worldhealthnewsradio/), this coming Sunday.

Dr. Samadi and Dr. Carson will discuss his future plans on possibly seeking the presidency and explore major areas of healthcare in need of reform such as:

·         Access to doctors, surgeons, hospitals

·         Rising costs of healthcare

·         Insurance transparency and reform

·         Patient Satisfaction Surveys and Medicare standards

·         Affordability

·         Institutions being technologically deficient

·         Lack of medical and patient data availability

·         Healthcare business/service models and fees

·         Healthcare industry consolidation

·         Over reliance on medicine

·         Physician practice standards

“I’m interested to learn what Dr. Carson thinks about the current state of healthcare, how we can improve it and of course, if he actually plans to run for President.”

Dr. Samadi will also discuss Obamacare and the Health Law with Dr. Carson, uncovering what the future holds for insurance accessibility, cost and efficiency.

Dr. Carson has previously stated that he believes it to be a good idea for physicians, scientists, engineers and others trained to make decisions based on facts and empirical data to get more involved in the political arena. Dr. Samadi shares this same notion.

“I have so much respect for Dr. Carson, not only as a fellow surgeon but as a potential presidential candidate. He is bringing many of the real healthcare issues to the surface and it’s important to have a physician’s perspective in the conversation.”

This week, Dr. Carson surpassed Hillary Clinton in the favorability polls as a presidential candidate. No other republican candidate scored as close.

Dr. Carson is most known for being the first surgeon to successfully separate conjoined twins joined at the head. Dr. Samadi will also speak to Carson on what he misses most as a retired surgeon and what his focus is now and looking toward the future.
