Is politics reshaping pediatric medicine? On #InTheDugout with Mike Stenhouse, Dr. Mike Artigues of the American College of Pediatricians joins Sten to break down the new “Doctor, Heal Thyself” initiative and the growing national debate over medical treatments for children experiencing gender distress. This is a conversation Rhode Islanders need to hear.
Rhode Island sits at the center of a growing national debate over medicine, science, and the rights of parents. On #InTheDugout with Mike Stenhouse, we sit down with Dr. Mike Artigues from the American College of Pediatricians (ACPeds), to discuss the organization’s newly launched “Doctor, Heal Thyself” initiative—a campaign aimed at restoring what ACPeds calls evidence-based, biologically grounded pediatric care.
In this episode of #InTheDugout, Sten gets straight to the core questions driving the national controversy: Are ideological pressures influencing pediatric medicine? What happens when doctors challenge prevailing medical policies? And how does this debate affect families and physicians here in the Ocean State? Dr. Artigues explains why ACPeds is reaching out to more than 67,000 pediatricians nationwide while building a coalition of medical professionals advocating for what they believe is science-driven care for children.
The conversation also zeroes in on Rhode Island specifically—where many pediatricians and medical trainees operate within major healthcare systems tied to national medical organizations. What does that mean for doctors who disagree with current practices? And how do court cases and federal policy debates over parental rights and school policies shape the future of medicine and local government policy in RI?
If you care about parental rights, medical ethics, and the future of pediatric care in Rhode Island, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
