By Dr. Adama Diarra, DO, FACP, DipABOM | CEO & CMO, Diarra Health. Is AI actually changing radiology — or is it just hype? Akshat Paliwal has a definitive answer. As the founder of FlexRad, a remote radiology company built on AI-enhanced workflows, he's not theorizing about the future of medical imaging. He's living it. In this episode, Akshat walks us through his journey from traditional academic and private radiology practice to building a scalable, AI-driven remote radiology business — including what COVID-19 forced him to rethink, the hard lessons of physician entrepreneurship, and why he believes the radiology workforce is at an inflection point that most practitioners aren't ready for. We dig into the practical realities of integrating AI into radiology workflows — not as a replacement for clinical judgment, but as a force multiplier for efficiency, accuracy, and autonomy. Akshat also shares how FlexRad's hybrid model is redefining what a sustainable radiology practice can look like in the age of remote work and intelligent automation. In this episode: How FlexRad's hybrid remote radiology model actually works Where AI is delivering real results in radiology workflows today — and where it isn't The risk profile every physician entrepreneur needs to understand before making the leap Why referrals and reputation remain the currency of growth even in a tech-forward practice What the radiology workforce will look like in 5 years — and how to position yourself now Whether you're a radiologist navigating a changing landscape, a physician considering entrepreneurship, or a healthcare leader thinking about AI integration, this conversation will challenge how you think about the future of your specialty. 🔗 Connect with Akshat: linkedin.com/in/akshatpaliwal 🌐 Learn more about FlexRad: flexrads.com 📧 Reach out directly: akshat@flexrads.com
