The story behind Rhythm Rounds

Built by a clinician.
For future clinicians.

Medicine is hard enough. The way we study it shouldn't make it harder.

There had to be a better way.

I'm a physician assistant with seven years of clinical experience. I've been in the trenches โ€” working shifts, making diagnoses, treating patients. I know what it takes to get there, and I know how brutal the path is.

I watched brilliant students burn out trying to memorize thousands of clinical concepts for boards. The tools they had โ€” flashcards, question banks, dense review books โ€” were effective, but exhausting. There was no joy in it.

I kept thinking: your brain remembers what moves it. Music activates memory pathways that passive studying simply can't reach. So I started writing songs.

My wife is an A&P student. She remembered a concept on her exam because she listened to one of our songs the night before. That's exactly why I built this.

182 songs. Every major topic covered.

Rhythm Rounds is a music-based medical education platform with 92 clinical medicine songs covering every major board-tested condition โ€” plus 90 anatomy and physiology songs spanning A&P 1 and A&P 2. A full pharmacology catalog of 60 songs is coming soon.

Every song is built to board-exam standards and validated against the medical literature. Each one comes with a study guide, clinical vignette, and mini quiz โ€” so you're not just listening, you're actively learning.

The content is written the way I wish someone had taught me โ€” clinical, memorable, and built around the patterns that show up on USMLE and PANCE.

Clinically built. Medically validated.

Every song on Rhythm Rounds goes through a multi-layer validation process before it's published.

Medicine that moves you.

Healthcare needs good clinicians. Getting there shouldn't break you. Rhythm Rounds exists to make the path a little more human โ€” a little more enjoyable โ€” without sacrificing the rigor that patients deserve.

If one song helps one student pass one exam and become the clinician they're meant to be, it was worth building.
