SUMMARY

Dr. Barnett demonstrates a practical use case for Doximity Ask: turning complex oncology treatment plans into patient-friendly materials.

Using a case of stage 3 untreated classical Hodgkin's lymphoma, he shows how the tool generates a visual explanation of treatment acronyms, since oncology shorthand that speeds up clinician workflows often confuses patients.

He also uses Doximity Ask to produce a full six-cycle treatment schedule with drug names, dosages, and frequency, formatted so patients can print it and check off each cycle as they progress.

The result is a clear, at-a-glance reference connecting each acronym to its corresponding drug and dose, giving patients a tool to track their own care.

TRANSCRIPT

My name is Dr. Barnett, and today I'm going to show you how to use Doximity Ask to help my patient who has stage three untreated classical Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Oftentimes in oncology, acronyms can be helpful to make our jobs more efficient, but oftentimes confusing for patients. I've asked Doximity Ask to generate an image that explains the acronyms.

I've also asked it to generate the dosages, the frequency of the treatment. Here, I have all six cycles listed. This way, I could print off this and act as a calendar or a checklist, where my patients could cross off each cycle as they go through.

Likewise, you can see here's the acronym, and then here's the drugs with their associated doses. This is one tool that I use with Doximity Ask to generate patient education materials that I find extremely beneficial.
