Kick it with Kiira

For this episode, we will be talking about a demographic that is near and dear to my heart. Which is student health. As most of you know, one of the main reasons why I stated Kiira Health was based on a negative health experience that I had in college so it became my mission to change the way care is delivered to young people by ultimately catching them young and that starts with their college health experience. On this episode, we are talking about all things college health, the current state of college health, and what is to come in the future of healthcare for young people. So today I am joined by one of my favorite leaders in the college health space, a phenomenal educator, student health advocate, and leader, Dr. Micah Griffin.

I will be joined by my partner and one-off my favorite physicians and business partner Dr. Candice Fraser who works day and night to provide healing and hope to our kiira users, patients, and the women's community at large.
