    #57 - Reimagining care for metabolic disorders - Ihsan Almarzooqi - meta[bolic]
    Jan 5 2026
    Which care models will handle the scourge of metabolic disorders? Beyond the societal questions raised by this public health phenomenon, the real concern is whether traditional care models are capable of managing this group of conditions effectively and sustainably. This largely because traditional care models are episodic and put little focus on behaviour change that is dearly needed to reverse the trend. Among those who have realized it and are striving for alternatives, Ihsan Almarzooqi and his team at meta[bolic] stand out. Based in Dubai, they have developed and deployed a unique care model, which they aim to replicate in Europe, starting with the UK. Their approach blends cutting-edge diagnostics, remote monitoring, and a care pathway involving frequent interactions with medical staff—enough to drive long-term behavioural change. And its efficacy has been demonstrated through numerous studies published since its inception. Beyond this hybrid care model, what is striking about Ihsan and the meta[bolic] philosophy is their relentless focus on improving outcomes for patients and incorporating the latest care innovations to raise the bar. Up to the point of reducing their operational margin to extend their knowledge of each patient, as long as it improves the level of care. In this episode, we discuss what makes this care pathway unique, its implementation, the results, and how we can leverage traditional reimbursement schemes while still delivering a continuous and outcome-oriented care experience. An inspiring and thought-provoking conversation on what care models for metabolic disorders can be, despite the constraints posed by most health systems! Timeline: 00:00:00 - What led Ihsan to pioneer new care delivery models 00:06:03 - The extent of the metabolic diseases pandemic 00:10:39 - Why traditional care models fail to address metabolic diseases 00:16:49 - The components that make up the meta[bolic] care model 00:23:37 - How the meta[bolic] care model is funded in the UAE 00:30:57 - Ihsan’s philosophy about evidence generation and how it is lived at meta[bolic] 00:33:28 - Scaling the meta[bolic] model to other geographies beyond the UAE 00:38:45 - How to keep patients engaged throughout their care journey 00:41:55 - Ihsan’s wishes for the democratization of value-based care What we also talked about with Ihsan: Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) GLP-1 agonists Labcorp p-Tau217 VO2 max test PromarkerD test As mentioned by Ihsan during the episode, you can have a read at Ground Truths by Dr. Eric Topol and his recent book Super Agers, an encyclopedia of the latest medical knowledge around longevity. Ihsan also recommends listening to Dr. Peter Attia’s podcast The Drive, which investigates everything from exercise and nutritional biochemistry to cardiovascular health, cancer, cognitive health, mental and emotional well-being, and beyond. You may also read Ihsan’s publication in NEJM Catalyst Innovations in Care Delivery alongside Hala Zakaria, and Ali Hashemi, on their hybrid care model to manage diabetes in the UAE.

    #56 - Building the one clinical AI assistant - Ali Parsa - Quadrivia
    Dec 10 2025
    What will our interactions with our healthcare system look like in the age of AI? Whether you are a patient, a doctor, or any other stakeholder in that system, the question is worth asking. In a world where healthcare costs continue to skyrocket, it is clear we need a radical solution to reverse the trend. The broader challenge is to restore the balance between demand and supply of care, limited by our capacity to train new doctors. Among those relentlessly working on this task are Ali Parsa and his team at Quadrivia. A true veteran of healthcare entrepreneurship, Ali founded Circle Health Group, now the largest chain of private hospitals in the UK, and Babylon Health, the fallen European digital health unicorn that once pioneered the use of AI for remote medicine, symptom checking, and patient triage. Despite all the highs and lows and whatever may have been said about his journey, Ali remains driven by the same mission: making healthcare more accessible and affordable at scale. Today, his efforts are focused on building Qu, which he aims to establish as the gold standard for clinical AI assistants, serving patients, doctors, and the broader ecosystem of actors in the space. In this episode, Ali reveals the inner workings of this formidable tool, showcasing its ability to automate repetitive tasks that healthcare professionals face daily, and the opportunity it offers patients by being available around the clock to advise, educate, and ensure continuous medical supervision. We also discuss the key role of healthcare professionals in the validation of Qu, how to approach the risks and European regulations to make it widely available, and finally, the time and caution required to confidently integrate AI into patients' lives and routine clinical practice. A fascinating conversation that outlines the future of our interactions with the healthcare world! Timeline: 00:00:00 - Ali’s journey as an entrepreneur building healthcare institutions and digital health solutions 00:11:52 - Why healthcare is not affordable nor accessible in the current system 00:16:17 - The interactions where AI will play a crucial role in healthcare (including a demo of Qu!) 00:25:06 - An approach to validate clinically the behaviour of AI in healthcare 00:29:54 - Ali’s observations on the current struggles around AI regulation in healthcare 00:37:22 - Making AI customisable to accommodate different clinical care practices for similar use cases 00:40:01 - Judging a clinical AI’s performance relative to the real performance of healthcare professionals 00:45:10 - Ali’s ambition and Quadrivia’s plans for the next few years What we also talked about with Ali: Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) Bakul Patel FDA Lovable Modality Partnership We cited with Ali some of the past episodes of the series: #47 - Pushing responsible AI in health - Dr. Ricardo Baptista Leite - HealthAI As mentioned by Ali during the episode, you can have a read at Thinking Machines Lab’s publication “Defeating Nondeterminism in LLM Inference” from September 2025, to dive deep into the nondeterminism problem around the use of LLMs. You can get in touch with Ali via LinkedIn, and follow Quadrivia’s activities on their website and on LinkedIn. ✉️ If you want to give me feedback on the episode or suggest potential guests, contact me over LinkedIn or via email! ⭐️ And if you liked the episode, please share it, subscribe to the podcast, and leave a 5-star review on streaming platforms! 🙏 You can also support my work by doing a PayPal donation @ImpulsePodcast! 👍 Lastly, don’t forget to follow our activities on LinkedIn and our website!
