“We need time to fix our time problem. And we can get stuck in this loop where we’re like, ‘I have no time to find time to make time to fix time.’” – Dr. Scott Cameron
Is your schedule running you—or are you running your schedule?
On this episode of The Allergist, Dr. Mariam Hanna is joined by pediatric allergist and clinical immunologist Dr. Scott Cameron to talk about the chaos of clinical practice and how to take back control. With tips that go far beyond time management, Dr. Cameron shares practical strategies for streamlining clinic operations, handling unpredictable days, and investing in smarter workflows—without burning out.
On this episode:
- The hidden culprits of clinic inefficiency—and how intake forms can help fix them
- How to triage patients better, with tips for predicting complex visits
- How to schedule around unpredictability—like anaphylaxis challenges—so they don’t derail your entire day
- The “project day” concept: why setting aside time for workflow projects can save you hours down the line
- Cutting down on admin overload with physician-driven templates, better patient communication, and targeted uses of AI
- How pairing with trainees can preserve teaching time and clinic flow
- Making time-saving tools work for you: from smart goals and macros to QR codes and intake automations
Get practical. Get faster. Get home on time. It’s all about working smarter—not harder.
