Signature talks

What she
speaks about

Each one can be scaled to a conference session, a grand rounds hour, or a panel appearance.

What Your AI Scribe Won't Tell You Lessons from a multi-site study of ambient AI scribes across four residencies, and what these tools really do to documentation, burnout, and the visit itself.
When Your Patient Brings AI to the Visit Patients now arrive with a chatbot's answer already in hand. How clinicians can meet that moment with trust instead of friction.
AI Literacy for Clinicians The judgment every clinician needs to use AI safely and well, without the hype and without the fear.
The Digital Divide Is a Care Divide Why the future of AI in medicine depends on the patients it most often overlooks, and how to build so no one is left behind.
From the Exam Room to the Policy Floor A practicing clinician's view on the rules being written now, from AI deepfakes and patient trust to keeping a human in the loop.

Common questions

What organizers
usually ask

How do I invite Dr. Magan to speak?

Email admin@drgigimagan.com with your date, audience, format and location. She replies with availability and a quote for your event.

Does she speak in Spanish?

Yes. Spanish is her first language and about 75% of her clinical visits are in Spanish, so a Spanish talk is thought and delivered in Spanish rather than translated.

Are talks available virtually or in person?

Both. Talks and panels are delivered virtually or in person, in English or in Spanish.

Can a talk be offered for CME credit?

Sometimes. Dr. Magan does not accredit her own talks. CME accreditation is arranged by the hosting organization, and one session hosted by the California Telehealth Resource Center has been accredited that way.

Can I use these bios and photos in my program?

Yes. Copy any of the three bios below as written or trim them to fit. For high-resolution photographs, email admin@drgigimagan.com.
