Senior Dental & Facial Surgeon (DDS, 18+ Yrs) | Clinical Product & Workflow Advisor
Clinical AI Evaluation (SOAP & PDSQI-9) • EHR Usability (<= 3 Clicks) • Conceptual HL7 FHIR & SNOMED CT Certified • AI-Assisted Product Discovery
I am a Senior Dental, Oral & Maxillofacial, and Facial Aesthetic Surgeon (DDS / Dentist, 18+ years of uninterrupted clinical and surgical practice; 5-Year First Professional Degree / EU EQF Level 7) working at the intersection of Clinical Product Advisory, Clinical AI Evaluation (Human-in-the-Loop / SME), and EHR Usability.
After nearly two decades in operating rooms and outpatient chairs, I grew tired of clinical software designed by people who never had to chart a surgical complication with gloves on. That frustration led me to initiate an independent clinical product discovery and applied R&D lab (templ.us), focused on reducing clinician documentation burden and catching silent AI hallucinations before they reach a medical record.
Transparency on My Technical Role: I am not a career software developer, database administrator, or traditional
HL7 FHIR/ data engineer. I am a practicing surgeon with foundational training in Health Informatics (SNOMED CT Foundation Certified, Oct 2026; conceptual HL7 FHIR R4/R5 architecture). I build and audit clinical software by operating as the Clinical Architect, Specification Lead, and Final Safety Auditor, orchestrating specialized multi-agent, multi-LLM engineering workflows in OpenCode under Andrej Karpathy's surgical execution principles.
Commercial LLMs are great at writing boilerplate code, and terrible at clinical nuance. Left unsupervised, a single agent drifts, mixes database schemas, or silently drops a negation particle in a post-op note. To solve that, I don't write the underlying TypeScript, Swift, or Python manually; instead, I run a closed-loop clinical engineering pipeline where distinct language models act as specialized subagents under strict verification gates:
- Context Hygiene & Codebase Indexing (
@explore): Fast-scanning agents map existing specifications, clinical dossiers, and repository invariants before a single line of code is planned. - Architectural & Schema Gate (
@architect): High-reasoning models review state machines, multi-tenantPostgreSQL Row-Level Security (RLS)boundaries, andHL7 FHIR/SNOMED CTdomain contracts prior to implementation. - Minimal-Blast-Radius Execution & Verification (
@general&@surgeon): Coding agents implement strictly scoped changes and run automated typechecks, builds, and deterministic unit suites. If a fix fails twice, execution stops and escalates back to architecture. - Multi-Tenancy, Privacy & Clinical Safety Gate (
@security-review& Independent Clinical Oracle): Every change touching authentication, encrypted PHI (AES-256-GCM), or clinical synthesis is audited by an isolated security reviewer and tested against an Independent Blind Clinical Oracle (PDSQI-9,O(M)rolling-rowmWER, andAHRQclinical harm rubrics).
While evaluating first-generation ambient scribes in live clinical care, I noticed they routinely fail on four clinical fronts: they omit ~18% of affirmed clinical facts, invert sentence-level negations, cross-contaminate RIGHT/LEFT anatomical sites in multi-site procedures, and leak treatment budget discussions into the legal clinical evolution.
To address those failure modes in my R&D prototype (Templus Scribe v6.2 Beta), I directed the multi-agent pipeline to build six mechanisms that set it apart from standard single-prompt wrappers:
- EHR-Agnostic Standalone Utility (
Zero Lock-In): Operates as a lightweightmacOS Menu Barnative utility (335pxHUD, Universal Binary), aWeb Workspace, and aMobile Pocket Recorder(Screen Wake Lock) with a 2-pill zero-training interface ([Clinical Evolution]and[Transcript]), decoupled from any specific EHR database and enforced by72-hourephemeral retention with 1-click Crypto-Shredding. - Edge DSP + Pure 2-Stage Acoustic-to-Clinical Split: Client-side audio conditioning (
16 kHzanti-aliased decimation,80 Hzhigh-pass pre-emphasis for surgical/dental ambient noise, and moderate dynamicP10Voice Activity Detection that preserves short negation particles like "no" or "sem") feeds a strict two-stage multi-LLM pipeline:- Stage 1 (Pure Acoustic Clean-Verbatim Diarization): Dedicated strictly to faithful multi-speaker transcription with
temperature: 0.0andthinkingBudget: 0, eliminating intermediate JSON tuple compression bottlenecks. - Stage 2 (Contextual Identity & 8-Discipline Clinical Synthesis): Maps speaker identities (
CLINICIAN,ASSISTANT,PATIENT,COMPANION) and structures notes tailored to 8 regulated healthcare professions (Medicine, Dentistry/OMFS, Nursing, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, NutritionADIME, Psychology, and Speech Therapy) withthinkingBudget: 0to prevent reasoning models from extrapolating unperformed normal physical exams.
- Stage 1 (Pure Acoustic Clean-Verbatim Diarization): Dedicated strictly to faithful multi-speaker transcription with
- Six Deterministic Sub-Millisecond Code Guardrails (
< 1 ms): Before a note is shown to the clinician, deterministic code verifies (1) Role-Authority & Temporal boundaries, (2) Sentence-Level Negation & Uncertainty scope, (3) Numeric Dosage Conservation (mg,mcg,mL,UI,FDItooth numbers), (4) Anatomical Laterality Cross-Talk (Rightvs.Left), (5) Commercial/Financial Pricing Scrubbing from the medico-legal evolution, and (6) Safe Patient Identity Anchoring (Zero Wrong-Patient Charting when companions or referring doctors are mentioned). - Independent Blind Clinical Oracle (
PDSQI-9 = 44/45,Fact F1 = 100.0%): A separate auditing service scores generated notes blindly against the ground-truth audio and transcript across 5 peer-reviewed clinical safety axes (PDSQI-9instrument,CREOLAomission taxonomy,mWER, andAHRQharm severity), achieving44/45 (97.2%)onPDSQI-9and100.0%F1 recall/precision on affirmed clinical facts in a real 55-minute outpatient consultation with zero hallucinations or polarity inversions.
