Advisory, speaking, and advocacy on AI in primary care
From the exam room to the policy floor
Most digital health is built without the patients who need it most. I work across the clinic, industry, and policy to change that.
A board-certified family physician, researcher, and peer reviewer in clinical informatics, bringing frontline clinical judgment to how AI gets built and used.
How can Dr. Magan help
my health system adopt AI?
I advise health systems, startups, community health centers, and FQHCs, along with the technology teams building for them, on how AI shows up in primary care. Grounded in research and life on the front lines, I evaluate whether a tool actually works in a real visit, show teams where it helps and where it falls short, especially for the patients most often left out, and pressure-test clinical safety and documentation quality. Think of it as a clinical AI advisor on the schedule your project needs, senior clinical judgment without the overhead of a full-time hire.
My own multi-site study of ambient AI scribes across four family medicine residencies won the 2025 Family Medicine Resident Award for Scholarship from AFMRD and NAPCRG.
