Shanar
Emergency medicine physician on a mission to close the gap between what people believe about health and what the evidence actually shows.
About
I practice emergency medicine, write about the claims that shape how people think about health, and build companies at the intersection of medicine and technology.
After completing my medical training, I saw the same pattern everywhere: viral health claims spreading faster than anyone could fact-check them. Patients arrived in the ER with decisions already made—based on headlines, not evidence.
That gap between what people believe and what the data shows became the foundation of everything I do.
