  • The AI Stethoscope That Scribes Itself: Lapsi Health’s Jhonatan Bringas Dimitriades on Reinventing Clinical AI

    The AI Stethoscope That Scribes Itself: Lapsi Health’s Jhonatan Bringas Dimitriades on Reinventing Clinical AI
    Apr 29 2026
    Dr. Jhonatan Bringas Dimitriades is the CEO and co-founder of Lapsi Health and the co-creator of Keikku — the world's first FDA-cleared digital stethoscope with an integrated AI scribe. The healthtech company and device were built alongside his co-founder and wife Dr. Diana van Stijn. Keikku listens to cardiac and pulmonary sounds, detects heart murmurs with 90% accuracy, and scribes physician-patient encounters real time at the bedside. In this episode, we talk about the pediatric asthma patient that sparked Lapsi Health, why lung sounds are where the clinical misdiagnosis can happen, how MEMS microphone technology powers AI-assisted auscultation, and what multilingual AI scribing means for the future of point-of-care medicine. MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems devices are miniature sensors and actuators—combining electrical and mechanical components—found in smartphones, cars, and medical tools. Jhonatan and I discuss the deskilling debate. He makes the case for why physicians need to be reskilling right now. ▶ Subscribe to @ResaELewissMD — new episodes The Visible Voices Podcast episode every Wednesday. 🎙️ Search "The Visible Voices Podcast" on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.

    Physicians Should Run for Office: Amanda Litman on 2026
    Apr 22 2026
    In this episode of the Visible Voices Podcast, I speak with Amanda Litman, co-founder and president of Run for Something. Co-founded in 2017 with Ross Morales Roquetteau, Run for Something is a multimillion-dollar political organization that recruits and supports millennials and Gen Z leaders running for local and state office. To date, the organization has helped elect over 1,650 candidates across all 50 states. We talk about the specific elected positions where healthcare expertise has direct policy impact, including hospital boards, school boards, library boards, state legislatures, and coroner seats. Amanda shares the three questions every candidate must be able to answer, how Run for Something supports candidates from sign-up through election day, and why local office — not Congress — is where community health gets decided. ▶ Subscribe to @ResaELewissMD — new The Visible Voices Podcast episode every Wednesday. 🎙️ Search "The Visible Voices Podcast" on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.
