On this episode of Innovate & Elevate, Sharon speaks with Dr. Erin Duralde, Medical Director for Women's Health and Menopause Care at One Medical, about a question that keeps coming up in midlife healthcare: now that we know more, where do people actually go for menopause care?Recorded shortly after the FDA removed the long-standing black box warning on estrogen therapies, this conversation explores how menopause and perimenopause care can be integrated into primary care, what a modern menopause visit should look like, and how clinicians can better listen to symptoms, history, and lived experience to guide care.What You'll Learn from this Episode:How Dr. Duralde's early work as a patient advocate at the UCSF Breast Care Center shaped her approach to menopause care and clinical decision-makingWhy menopause education was largely missing from medical training following misinterpretations of the Women's Health Initiative, and how that legacy still affects care todayWhat patients can expect from a dedicated menopause or perimenopause visit at One MedicalHow intake surveys and symptom tracking help clinicians better understand what matters most to each patientThe wide range of symptoms that can appear during perimenopause, beyond hot flashes and night sweatsHow clinicians think through treatment options in perimenopause, including hormonal and non-hormonal approachesThe difference between menopausal hormone therapy and combined hormonal contraception, and why timing and symptoms matterHow testosterone is used in post-menopause, why dosing matters, and how safety is monitoredHow primary care providers are being trained at scale to deliver evidence-based menopause careAs always, nothing in this episode is personal medical advice.

Dr. Glenn Wortmann, Medical Director of Infection Prevention at the MedStar Institute of Quality and Safety, joins WAMU to discuss how to prepare for the upcoming flu season, which he and other medical experts warn will be a "tough one."
In this episode of The Positive Pause®, Claire Gill sits down with Dr. Soma Mandal, a leading board-certified Internist and midlife women's health expert, to talk about her personal path into women's health, the evolution of menopause care, her podcast “Soma Says”, and her major new role developing a comprehensive Women's Health Center. The conversation highlights advocacy, education, prevention, and the importance of empowering women to put themselves first.Dr. Mandal never planned to specialize in women's health, but her patients naturally gravitated toward her—first younger women facing infertility, then midlife women navigating menopause and aging. Her own health challenges reinforced her passion for this work. Training during the Women's Health Initiative fallout shaped her early medical approach. With hormone therapy suddenly deemed dangerous, an entire generation of clinicians avoided it. Today's improved understanding requires re-educating both clinicians and patientsBeginning in January 2026, she will be joining Hackensack Meridian Health as the Medical Director of Women's Health at Jersey Shore University Medical Center, where she'll be building a comprehensive, multidisciplinary women's health center. The goal is integrated care coordinated across cardiology, endocrinology, gynecology, behavioral health, and primary careKey Points CoveredWhy Advocacy Matters — Even for Doctors - Through her own infertility and medical challenges, Dr. Mandal learned how essential self-advocacy is. She encourages women to speak up, ask questions, and push for what they need—even when clinicians are dismissive or overburdened.The Origin of Her Podcast, Soma Says is a return to her lifelong passion for educating and uplifting women. Guests discuss menopause, Alzheimer's, incontinence, prevention, emotional well-being, and more—reaching listeners worldwide.The Challenge of Navigating a Fragmented Healthcare System - Women often get lost between specialists, especially when dealing with complex diagnoses. A coordinated center reduces confusion, prevents delays in treatment, and eases the burden on women who already juggle caregiving and work responsibilities.The #1 Thing Women Don't Know: Heart Disease Is Their Greatest Risk - Many women still don't realize that heart disease—not breast cancer—is the leading cause of death for women. Dr. Mandal stresses early screening, understanding family history, and taking preventive measures long before symptoms appear.The Power of Education & Community Advocacy - Podcasts, social media, and patient advocacy groups help fill major gaps in clinical education. Giving women accurate information—especially about menopause, heart health, and bone health—empowers them to take control of their wellbeing.Her #1 Action Step for Women: Put yourself first - Whether it's scheduling a physical, taking a walk, asking a partner to cover a chore, or carving out 15 minutes to breathe—women must prioritize their own health. Most women aren't even on their own to-do lists.This episode highlights the gaps in women's health—and the passionate experts committed to closing them. Dr. Soma Mandal offers women a roadmap: learn, advocate, ask questions, and prioritize your own wellbeing.Connect with Dr. Mandal Website: https://www.somamandalmd.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Soma-Mandal-MD-437643206820996/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drsomamandalmdLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/somamandal/ YouTube Channel:

From multivitamin gummies to creatine and collagen powders... it can feel like we're being bombarded with products that promise more energy, better sleep, and glowing skin But are these supplements actually worth taking or are they a waste of money? We've asked Dr Prabani Wood, Medical Director at The Royal NZ College of General Practitioners and Hamilton GP to break it down for us.
The 2024 election was very confusing for Libs. After years of pandering to minority groups and “expert” predictions that Trump's immigration policies would lose his Latino supporters, a Pew study found Latino Americans surged to MAGA with over 48% – actually rising from 36% in 2020. But for people who aren't racist panderers, the explanation is simple. Cultural traits common among many Mexican-American immigrants — Catholic faith, traditional family values, commitment to hard work and law-following — align with conservative ideas. Many Latino immigrants resent those who cross the border illegally and view legal immigration as a matter of principle – because they worked hard, followed the law, and distrust those who won't do the same. In fact, a recent study found Latino Americans are powering US economic growth, reaching an estimated $3.7 trillion of our GDP.

Does having darker skin really protect you from skin cancer? Can you imagine getting a Pap smear every single day for 21 years just to help your husband’s research? And, what do you do if your vagina involuntarily “clenches” during sex. In this episode, we speak to Professor Georgina Long, Medical Director of Melanoma Institute Australia (MIA) and 2024 Australian of the Year, to decode Australia’s complicated relationship with the sun. We talk about the "ABCDE" rule for checking your moles, whether darker skin tones are at less risk of melanoma and why you should be taking photos of your skin spots.Plus, in Med School, Claire and Dr Mariam pay tribute to the unsung heroines of medical history - from the wife of Dr. Papanicolaou (who underwent daily pap smears for 21 years ) to Anarcha Westcott, the enslaved woman known as the 'mother of modern gynecology', who endured 30 experimental surgeries without anaesthesia.And, in our Quick Consult, Dr Mariam helps a listener named Sarah who is struggling with Vaginismus. We break down exactly what this condition is, why it is a physical reflex rather than "just in your head" and the multidisciplinary team you need to help reclaim your sex life.THE END BITS All your health information is in the Well Hub.

A sperm donor who unknowingly carried a rare cancer-causing gene has fathered almost 200 children across Europe. The EBU conducted an investigation into the donor and found his sperm was used in 67 clinics in 14 different countries. It was also sold to Ireland but it hasn't been used to conceive any babies. The children carrying his DNA now have a 90% chance of developing cancer. We get reaction to this with Dr John Kennedy, Medical Director at Thérapie Fertility.
Feel like you're just not yourself mentally in midlife? Trust me, you are absolutely not crazy for wondering what's going on in your brain. In this episode, hormone expert Dr. Carrie Jones joins me to unpack the very real brain changes and hormone fluctuations that make midlife feel like a rollercoaster. Dr. Carrie brings refreshing honesty about giving herself grace on the days when her brain simply says “no” and how that compassion is essential for all of us navigating this season of life. We dive into the midlife “reckoning,” when so many women realize it's time to reevaluate who they are, what they want, and say goodbye to what no longer serves them. Together, we explore why midlife can leave you feeling out of whack, how hormones drive these shifts, and what you can do to support your brain with more clarity and ease.

Key Takeaways1. Hospice isn't about giving up — it's about shifting the goal from cure to comfort.Most misconceptions stem from fear or lack of education. Hospice focuses on maximizing quality of life, not accelerating end of life.2. Timing matters. Early conversations lead to better experiences.Families often wait until crisis mode. Subtle changes — fatigue, weight loss, repeated hospitalizations, shifting goals — are early signs to explore hospice.3. There is an entire team behind every patient and family.Chaplains, social workers, nurses, CNAs, and physicians work together to support medical, emotional, spiritual, and logistical needs.4. Quality of life is unique to each patient.It may mean one last trip, freedom from pain, or simply being able to rest without fear. Hospice focuses on what matters most.5. Families gain relief, clarity, and peace knowing they're not alone.Hospice offers 24/7 support, education, and guidance — reducing anxiety and preventing unnecessary hospital visits.6. Eligibility is flexible and individualized.A prognosis of six months or less is a guideline, not an expiration date. A hospice RN and medical director work together to determine appropriateness based on a full clinical picture.7. Hospice allows sacred, human moments to happen.Final conversations, reconciliation, peaceful transitions — hospice creates space for these moments rather than crisis-driven chaos.8. Education is the antidote to fear.Knowledge gives families confidence, reduces guilt, and empowers them to make aligned decisions for their loved ones. www.YourHealth.Org
A new Drone Emergency Medical Services (DEMS) has now entered operational service in the Forges-les-Eaux area in Normandy, where the system is fully integrated into the regional emergency dispatch chain for suspected cardiac arrest. This marks a significant step in the development of drone-supported emergency medical care in France and means the service is now used in real emergency calls to shorten time to first medical intervention. The drone system is operated by Everdrone in close collaboration with the French emergency dispatch centers (SAMU) and delivers an automated external defibrillator (AED) to the site of a suspected cardiac arrest within minutes - often several minutes before the ambulance arrives. Drone service to deliver automated defibrillators In cases of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, the chance of survival decreases by approximately 7-10 percent for every minute without defibrillation, making early access to an AED absolutely critical. By shortening the time to first intervention, the DEMS service addresses one of the most decisive moments in the entire chain of survival. The project was initiated by Rouen SAMU, where Medical Director Dr. Cédric Damm early on recognized the potential of Everdrone's DEMS model to shorten response times in cardiac arrest cases. The SAMU has worked closely with Delivrone - the leading medical drone operator in France - to implement a solution, and since 2022 Everdrone and Delivrone have collaborated to provide French hospitals with a state-of-the-art DEMS capability. Implementation in Normandy is carried out together with Delivrone, CHU Rouen Normandie (the university hospital in Rouen), Région Normandie, and Mairie de Forges-les-Eaux. Together, these organizations form a long-term partnership with a clear objective: reducing time to first medical action and thereby strengthening survival prospects in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The system in Normandy is based on Everdrone's established DEMS platform, which has been in operational service in Sweden since 2022. The Swedish results - demonstrating clear time savings and improved access to AEDs - have been central in shaping the French service. "Having our system now used in live emergency calls in Normandy demonstrates how quickly DEMS technology can create tangible value. Together with our regional partners, we are taking an important step toward giving more patients life-saving support several minutes earlier than is possible today," says Mats Sällström, CEO of Everdrone. "In cases of cardiac arrest, every minute is critical, and the ability to place an AED on-site several minutes earlier can directly influence a patient's chance of survival. By integrating Everdrone's DEMS system into our dispatch chain, we gain a valuable complement that strengthens our ability to act quickly in the most time-sensitive situations. The project in Normandy shows that drone deliveries can become a natural and effective part of the emergency medical care of the future," says Dr. Cédric Damm, Medical Director, SAMU 76 Rouen. About Everdrone Everdrone AB is a leading provider of autonomous drone systems for emergency response and healthcare, headquartered in Gothenburg, Sweden. Its proprietary technology enables the extremely rapid delivery of life-saving medical equipment - such as automated external defibrillators (AEDs) - directly to the scene, while also providing real-time video support to emergency dispatchers.

Beta-glucans might be one of the most overlooked levers in immune resilience, and that has major implications for longevity. Talking with my long-time friends and colleagues Drs. Bob Rountree and Chris D'Adamo reminded me just how powerful this molecule truly is. The clinical reach here is stunning, from immune aging and cancer support to vaccine response, gut–brain effects, and overall resilience. What struck me most is how beta-glucans help the innate immune system respond more effectively over time, from overtraining and chronic infections to vaccine responsiveness. Clinicians really need this on their radar. I think you're going to find this conversation eye-opening. ~DrKF Check out the show notes at https://www.drkarafitzgerald.com/fxmed-podcast/ for the full list of links and resources.

Many people experience a deep, lingering fatigue that isn't fixed by a full night's sleep, and it often stems from real imbalances inside the body. When mitochondria—the tiny engines that power our cells—are stressed by poor diet, toxins, infections, or lack of rest, the whole system can slow down. Ongoing stress can also disrupt the adrenal system, leaving some people feeling wired and anxious while others feel drained from morning to night. The encouraging news is that steady habits like nourishing whole foods, balanced blood sugar, restorative sleep, and gentle movement can help the body find its rhythm again. With the right support, energy often returns, and a sense of hope does, too. In this episode, I dive into, along with Dr. Izabella Wentz and Dr. Elizabeth Boham, the real roots of chronic fatigue, showing how stress, lifestyle, and hidden imbalances drain our energy—and how practical, nourishing habits can help restore it. Izabella Wentz is an internationally acclaimed thyroid specialist and a licensed pharmacist who has dedicated her career to addressing the root causes of autoimmune thyroid disease after being diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis in 2009. She is the author of three books on Hashimoto's: Hashimoto's Thyroiditis Lifestyle Interventions for Finding and Treating the Root Cause, Hashimoto's Food Pharmacology, and Hashimoto's Protocol, which became a #1 New York Times bestseller. Dr. Elizabeth Boham is Board Certified in Family Medicine from Albany Medical School, and she is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner and the Medical Director of The UltraWellness Center. Dr. Boham lectures on a variety of topics, including Women's Health and Breast Cancer Prevention, insulin resistance, heart health, weight control and allergies. She is on the faculty for the Institute for Functional Medicine. This episode is brought to you by BIOptimizers. Head to bioptimizers.com/hyman and use code HYMAN to save 15%.
