What does it really mean to be a Chief Medical Officer in today’s healthcare landscape?

In this episode of Health Tech Checkup, hosts Rachelle Galant and Perry Dimas sit down with Dr. Chet Robson, Chief Medical Officer and strategic advisor, to unpack how the CMO role has evolved—and why it now sits at the intersection of clinical care, technology, data, and ethics.

Dr. Robson shares how modern CMOs have moved beyond being clinical translators to becoming integrators of complex systems, balancing AI, digital health tools, EMR data, and real-world patient care. The conversation explores where health tech initiatives often fall short, from workflow misalignment and fragmented data to change management and incentive challenges.

Along the way, Dr. Robson offers thoughtful perspectives on trust, transparency, medication adherence, and why empowering patients with actionable information may be one of the biggest opportunities in healthcare’s future.

This episode is a must-listen for health tech leaders, clinicians, and innovators looking to build technology that truly works in the real world—and for anyone curious about how we might all become better “chief medical officers” of our own health.
