Are you emotionally intelligent? In this new episode Drs. Jason Silverman and Temara Hajjat sit down with Dr. Michael Dolinger to review what emotional intelligence is, and how it applies to medical training, healthcare practitioners and everyone as individuals. We also discuss ways to improve and resources to consider.

Michael Dolinger, MD, is the Director of Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease and an Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at NYU Grossman School of Medicine. During his fellowship training, Dr. Dolinger became the first gastroenterology fellow in the United States to be trained and certified to perform intestinal ultrasound for inflammatory bowel disease activity monitoring. He has co-founded the Intestinal Ultrasound Group of the United States and Canada (iUSCAN) and now leads global training, education, and research efforts on the use of intestinal ultrasound as a non-invasive monitoring tool in inflammatory bowel disease care.
