Healthcare Trendwatcher & Reimaginer

“Medicine has always been a balance between wisdom and innovation, what we keep, what we refine, and what we leave behind. From ancient healers diagnosing by the stars to AI predicting diseases before symptoms appear, the question isn’t just how far we’ve come, but whether we’re truly advancing in the right direction.” – Gary Monk

Gary Monk examines healthcare’s evolution from ancient healing practices to AI-driven medicine, identifying which historical approaches still offer wisdom and which should be abandoned in our technological age. His research explores how current innovations—particularly artificial intelligence—may represent either a genuine breakthrough in patient care or a sophisticated repetition of past medical missteps with new tools. By drawing parallels between ancient Greek, Chinese, and medieval healing traditions and today’s cutting-edge developments, Monk challenges conventional narratives about progress in medicine.
