Oncologist and Novelist: an interview with Jennifer Lycette, MD

The Art of Medicine with Dr. Andrew Wilner

Dr. Wilner would love your feedback! Click here to send a text! Thanks!

Many thanks to Jennifer Lycette, MD, a rural oncologist in the Pacific Northwest and author of two nonfiction feminist medical thrillers, “The Algorithm Will See You Now” and “The Committee Will Kill You Now.”

I’ve just finished reading “The Algorithm Will See You Now.” Written with a physician’s expertise and through a women’s eye, it’s definitely a page turner. I can’t wait to read “The Committee Will Kill You Now,” which is actually a prequel.

During our 30-minute discussion, Dr. Lycette shared how a severe episode of burnout pre-pandemic led her to temporarily leave medicine. She worked with a life coach, did a lot of introspection, and discovered how creative writing helped bring her back to clinical practice.
