This week, Dr. Nikki Dority joins the show to discuss her time in the U.S. Army as a medical officer and how it framed her future to serve her community once more after she left the army. Afterwards, she became a women's health physical therapist and explains all what the speciality entails and what everyone should know about the pelvic floor, trauma, and overall physical health.Nikki then goes on to explain her newest and greatest endeavor -- creating a community health center that is a place for healthy people to go to stay healthy. She goes on to explain that watching the medical industry from the clinician perspective evoked an idea of needing another, better way for patients to access health services that didn't require them to be sick to begin with.Interested in Nikki's retreat that she spoke of?
