I just spoke at length to @EPotterMD and I have asked her for all of the supporting documents, emails, call records, etc which she has agreed to provide. I found her and her story totally credible. @UHC has publically called her a liar, and UHC’s general counsel has told my CLO that Dr. Potter is not telling the truth.
We have asked UHC to explain with particularity what Dr. Potter has said and/or written that is false. They have yet to respond to this request.
I took down my original post on this matter because UHC’s outside counsel told my CLO that I was wrong and that Dr. Potter was not telling the truth.
Based on what I have heard so far, I believe that Dr. Potter is telling the truth and that UHC appears to have denied coverage for a necessary post-surgical overnight stay and interfered with a surgeon mid-operation without good reason. They have also threatened the doctor with defamation and significant financial liabilities. And they have complained to the @SECGov about me.
I await UHC’s side of the story and supporting facts before I can conclusively form a view on what has happened here.
In the meantime, I have told Dr. Potter that I will cover her legal expenses to defend her from UHC’s claims, and to make sure that she has proper representation so that this is a fair fight.
Stay tuned. This should be interesting. And there is a possibility that good will come from this. Healthcare and our insurance system is in trouble and needs a reboot.
Sharing the voices of my team members reflecting upon the nature of design, and designing with nature. Here is to a year of true synergy between the grown and the made. Here's to joy and peace for all sentient beings. May we come together to build a better and meaningful world in 2025.
My wish for the world of Design in the New Year is to consider reincarnation instead of recycling. In the spirit of timeless designs and timely technologies, here is an image from project Oᵒ we'd like to share.
A Roman sandal from circa 400 CE (left) next to the Oᵒ concept shoe. Both are crafted from a single material addressing varying mechanical and environmental requirements while fully biodegrading in soil. After six weeks in a soil microbiome, the O° shoe will require approximately one to two years to decompose—leaving behind zero microplastics and zero pollutants (right.)
We will continue this work in 2025, with the goal of designing and delivering such products at scale, beginning with a 2025 capsule collection. Please stay tuned! To learn more about O° please visit https://t.co/dm4Xa4douk
Merry Old World, Happy New Year!
In pure and introspective acts of reflective gesturing, it is as if Horowitz is replaying the Mozart piano concerto 23 2nd mov, musically depicting yet again the image of cosmic melancholy... Here is to gratitude and to giving ...

Meet O° – a collection of shoes and textiles whose creation and reincarnation starts and ends with biology.
100% biodegradable. 0% petrochemicals. 0% microplastics. 0% forever chemicals. No assemblies. No glues.
Here’s to a future where products can grow from—and reincarnate into—plant matter.

I was thrilled to join the @megalopolismov family for its NYC premiere screening last night. It has been a real honor to contribute to the FFC's "fable" film.
Below is a link to our project Man-nahata which included urban study models for the city of MEGALOPOLIS, designed by OXMAN for FFC's film. The models were presented at SFMOMA in 2022 as part of the "OXMAN Architects" exhibition curated by Jennifer Dunlop Fletcher.
We look forward to sharing our new work with all of you at the end of this month. Thank you for your patience and support as we wrap up our projects for our very own "premier"!
