For those with kids… do you prefer they turn off their cell phone so they cant be reached? Do you prefer they troubleshoot rather than call you, like what’s the worst that can happen? Would it be nerve wrecking if suddenly you stop hearing at them, at all?

That’s how I feel right now, as I have always considered my duty and responsibility to my patients similar to that of a parent to a child. As to why i feel this way… I learned today that all the WMG providers *chose* to turn off a safeguard that has been implemented for years and years as a means to optimize patients' care. The decision was made in Dec and implemented Jan 2026. Labs or imaging or procedure ordered by another doctor used to have a CC sent to the P*P, to keep them in the loop. This feature was deliberately turned off as many complained it TMI and too overwhelming. Just exactly what did they think being a P*P entail?!?! 🤔

Apparently the law doesn't forbid this, though I can't imagine medical laws could ever forsee that any community is capable of this level of dumbF-ery. I signed up to help patients, not to deal with the fallout with a very, very bad decision, which at this very moment my brain is still glitching trying to process just how dangerous and counter-intuitive it is.

Here’s an idea: if a provider feel burden by being updated about what’s happening to their patients; dont become a P*P. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

I'm swimming upstream practicing in a state that is anti independent doctors and anti patients’ rights and pro corporate hospitals; ultimately maintaining a status quo where patient safety is an afterthought rather than a priority.

The fight has dragged on, and 2 years into it, WGH hasnt budged an inch. The collateral damage is approaching a level I can't shrug off anymore. Patients are being punished when I’m the intended target. That’s not a price I’m willing to pay, even if it means I have to abort my ambitions.

I know those with resources to avoid WGH (and understandably so) already are. I worry about those who do not have such luxuries. Unable to provide my patients the care they’re entitled to, I feel like I'm letting them down.

I’m tired of fighting an unwinnable battle that ultimately yields the opposite of the intended effect: my patients are left worse off.

Update (1:20 PM):

I received a call a little while ago, from WGH, who informed me that it was desired by most of WMG providers to NOT get flooded with labs they didn't order. As of January 2026, the EMR was reprogramed such that P*Ps were no longer getting CC'ed on labs they didn't ordered.

When labs get CC'ed to a P*P, it helps keep them in the loops, and occasionally can see a pattern based on my data point when the specialist would otherwise only have one data point. And they may start picking up on early signs of danger, before it leads to an ER visit or a hospitalization.

I made the request to program it such that I would still get CC'ed on my patients' labs, but this was flat out denied. Ultimately it is NOT legally required that the P*P be CC'ed in the lab results in the state of PA, so I will have to think of work-arounds to help keep my patients safe.

One idea is faxing a gentle request to all providers that
1.) please send office visit note to me
2.) please send any related imaging and lab results to me.
Both can be faxed to 814 757 4310
And hope for the best. This relies on a professional courtesy by the ordering provider. Some providers with whom I form strong bonds has already been doing this without fail

“To whom it may concern,

I'm coming to discover that despite being listed as a patient's P*P, I no longer get CC'ed in their lab results whenever the labs are drawn on an outpatient basis; this was discovered incidentally, so this means all those other labs meant to be CC'ed to me I wouldn't even be aware of. This is next-level poor continuity of care I've never experienced from any hospital at any time point.

I get the sense that things falling through the crack are inadvertent and ultimately roots from systemic failure. However, a break in continuity of care is dangerous no matter how we try to dress it up. Please put yourself in the patient's perspective or their loved one. Telling them 'but, but we didn't mean it" doesn't make their deceased one... any less dead.

I understand that identifying the specific problem, and then implement a fix takes time... I hope we don't all have blood on our hands before we are able to get on top of this.

Please acknowledge that you have been made aware of this.

Sincerely,
Dr Le”

An unfortunate situation for those affected.

(The small font makes it difficult to read; below is the TLDR version)

“…

Given the proximity of Warren to Erie, I am happy to administer allergy injections for patients when frequent travel to Erie becomes inconvenient. When patients present for injections, I verify the protocol to ensure it matches the regimen established by your office. I personally administer the injections and observe patients afterward in accordance with standard safety practices.

Patients should understand that receiving their allergy shots at my office does not require transferring their primary care. If their usual P*P resumes administering injections in the future, they may easily return to that arrangement. Any existing payment structure they have with their P*P is respected. If convenient, patients may also leave their serum at my office, where it is stored in a medication-designated refrigerator.

…”

A dog’s bond with its owner becomes so adept, it reaches a state that appears like foresight (it’s because they pick up chemical releases before those chemical affects the owner’s physical state).

Oakley’s tail wags in synchrony with my heart rate; his restlessness a somber reminder that even on a Saturday morning, my mind races.

Never good at nor care for meditative exercises, I mused at how no one gets do *only* the things we like or are good at. I lucked out in that practicing medicine is both a calling and a passion.

I eventually achieved some semblance of tranquility because lo and behold, Oakley calmed enough, let his guard down, and dozed off.

Regarding my effort to obtain community privilege, I’d say “Oh God, you’re killing me,” except“Oh God, you’re killing my patients” is more fitting.

Today would be a full month since I had a virtual meeting with said hospital to discuss ways we can improve medical care in Warren.

Lots of shoulda, coulda. Actions taken… none. Update on when something *might* be done: late May.

We were alarmed and disturbed how quickly the situation of no urgency, - a pregnancy test mistakenly ordered on a male patient - was addressed promptly despite no grievance filed.

On the other hand, an issue that has been brought up the past two years that has widespread implication for patient safety and care optimization takes little priority.

This is an issue that affects the safety and well-being of hundreds, but please, by all means… take. your. time.

ArnuMed Primary Care will begin serving as a clinical training site for incoming nurse practitioner students.

First and foremost — there is no charge of any kind to the students for. No “teaching clinic” surcharge. Nothing. Care remains exactly as it has always been and I do a full independent evaluation of patients, and remain fully responsible for every medical decision.

For NP programs considering placement here, please confirm that it is permissible within your program requirements for an MD to serve as preceptor rather than a DNP.

This site would be especially ideal for students who want a stronger focus in chronic adult diseases — hypertension, diabetes, CKD, cardiovascular risk management, polypharmacy, and complex outpatient primary care.

There is also no expectation or obligation for any student to matriculate at ArnuMed upon completion of training. This is about education and strengthening clinical skill — not recruitment.

Teaching is one way we strengthen healthcare in rural Pennsylvania. If we want well-trained clinicians serving communities like ours, they need meaningful clinical exposure.

Grateful to contribute — and grateful, as always, for the trust of this community.

I went out on a limb and invited Michael Arnum’s family members to the ribbon cutting ceremony on Apr 20th… they said YES!

This will be their first time seeing an office built in honor of their loved one.

Michael’s Legacy; Story Behind the Practice’s Name
(A repost based on a prior post)

On 2/26/23, the practice’s namesake — Michael J. Arnum — collapsed and passed away suddenly at the age of 54. He suffered a fatal heart attack while at a local gym. Just as Michael was there for anyone, this medical office was created to do the same and honor his legacy.

Through rain and shine, he’d comfort people with his smile. When I was hospitalized, an otherwise distressing experience was uplifted by his unannounced visit. Base on that joy I felt, I endeavored to be there for my patients during their time of distress.

Michael was known for his boundless generosity and selflessness. He would help those close to him, no matter the toll it took. When I fell on hard times and became homeless, he came through. Moving forward with my life meant getting to Kane, PA for a job interview. He dropped everything to make sure it happened.

When he passed, I was fraught with sorrow and despair. Building the practice was a productive way to channel my grief. For someone who had done so much for me, naming the practice in his honor was the least I could do.
