You Don't Want To Miss This One! SummaryIn this episode, Sean and Terry discuss the critical importance of proper documentation in healthcare, particularly focusing on the discrepancies that arise when dealing with cash patients versus insured patients. They emphasize that documentation should be consistent and thorough, regardless of the patient's financial status, to mitigate compliance risks and protect both providers and patients. The conversation also touches on the broader implications of healthcare practices, including the influence of insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies on treatment options.TakeawaysDocumentation should be universal across all patient types.Cash patients often receive inadequate documentation.Proper documentation protects against medical liability risks.Providers must document services regardless of insurance coverage.Documentation is essential for continuity of care.Inadequate records can harm patient care and outcomes.Compliance risks increase with poor documentation practices.Providers are responsible for documentation even after retirement.Audits can go back six years, regardless of provider status.Be proactive in documentation to prepare for audits.

Host: Dr. Ashlee Gethner, LCSW – Child of a Police Officer Jennifer Woosley Saylor, LPCC S – Child of a Police Officer Guest: Chief Deputy Justin Miller, Kenosha Sheriff’s Office Episode Overview: In this insightful episode, Ashlee and Jennifer, welcome Chief Deputy Justin Miller from the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Office. Chief Deputy Miller shares his journey from serving as a Navy psychiatric technician to law enforcement leadership, opening up about how personal experiences and organizational gaps in mental health support shaped his mission to prioritize officer wellness. Key Topics Covered The Struggle for Support: Chief Deputy Miller recounts moments where, due to budget cuts, Employee Assistance Programs (EAP) and peer support teams were unavailable, leaving officers without organizational resources for mental well-being. Personal Impact: He discusses the life events that first drew his attention to the importance of officer mental health, from the suicide of a significant other to his own family losses, and the organizational culture’s lack of compassion. Culture Shift in Law Enforcement: The conversation delves into the challenges of changing a deeply ingrained “rub dirt on it” mindset, and how being promoted doesn’t always mean having a real voice for change. Innovative Wellness Initiatives: Chief Deputy Miller outlines current strategies in his department. Breaking the Stigma: Chief Deputy Miller explains how officer education, transparency, and leadership modeling are critical for long-term cultural change. Family & Community Impact: The importance of involving officer families in wellness programs—offering access to resources, education, and community-building events. Advice for Leaders & Providers: For law enforcement administrators - Be humble, open to new ideas, prioritize serving your people, and build cultures where feedback leads to actionable change. For mental health professionals - There’s a pressing need for more providers trained to understand first responder culture, as well as resources tailored for both officers and their families. From Struggle to Success: Chief Deputy Miller shares that Kenosha has achieved zero vacancies in both patrol and corrections—a rarity in the current law enforcement climate—and credits a strong, invested culture of wellness and leadership development.

Yes!  You are in!  Are you a strong man?  Are you a strong woman?  What is a strong man?  Whoa, lot's of questions.  That's what we do here.  Getting Real and Pursuing Truth, oh and if you dig that opening hook, that is Marcus Rogers, Best Life, please buy/subscribe his music, here you go...Thank you Robert D. Wooten, making his debut as the play of the day on FriDudes.  NPHX not your debut yet major kudos for having that strong man speak.  I strongly encourage you to listen to the rest of that message, which can be found at this link in the show description...https://youtu.be/5bneMdVZHxM?si=nhoBZHQ4eDIFhkHGWays of the world will judge and say what is toxic.  Toxic masculinity?  You know what I call toxic?  Saying that if you are a certain gender or race that you are automatically toxic.  That is discrimination.  The Dr. Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., a black life with whom we celebrate and even honor with a national holiday says, "Let us select by content of character...not by color of skin.".  Gender can apply to that statement too."I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." Didn't we just have an episode on about not judging?  Yes!  And I so appreciate MLK Jr.'s words.  If we are to be judged, let it not by something trivial like skin color or gender, etc.  Character.  ISo let's get real and pursue some truth more.  We know the danger verse of judging (if not, back up one episode).  We know that verse that we are all flawed...Rom 3:23.  So we know there is no perfect character.  Yet we also know there are stronger characters than others.  We know a stronger character will show fruits of the spirit...Galatians 5:22 NLTBut the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulnessNLT: New Living Translationhttps://www.bible.com/bible/116/gal.5.22So a Strong Man = Strong Character.  Same with a strong woman.  Think about your favorite people.  Do you love people that take advantage of you or treat you with respect, the fruits mentioned above with character?  Yes, I love rhetorical questions.  Confession, at times, I have not been a Strong Man.  Avid listener, you know my dirt....if not back up, perhaps even to episode 1...if you dare.  Yet a Strong Man will confess in order to be healed, James 5:16.  A strong man will turn where needed and correct what can be corrected.  In progress right now.Are you worthy to be served/submitted?  Many religious like to point out wives submit to your husbands.  Not many point how it opens in Ephesians 5.  21 And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.  Eph 5:21https://www.bible.com/bible/116/EPH.5.NLTConfession, it is much easier to serve one another when we have our A games.  However, on the days we don't, what did/does your Jesus Christ do for you?  Does he forgive you?  If you believe and choose John 3:16 and Rom 8:1, then, yes, absolutely.  That's a Strong and Amazing Grace Savior.Matt 22: 36-40

Do patients and their healthcare teams view the impact of indolent systemic mastocytosis on quality of life in the same way? In this episode of The Itch Review, we unpack key findings from a May 4, 2025, descriptive study from The Journal of the Advanced Practitioner in Oncology, “Patient and Advanced Practitioner Perspectives on Symptom Burden and Symptom Management in Indolent Systemic Mastocytosis.” Is there a disconnect between what patients feel and what providers think when it comes to indolent systemic mastocytosis (ISM)? A new study suggests yes, revealing a mismatch between how patients and advanced practitioners (APs) perceive disease control and what that means for care. This episode dives into whether research like this could help bridge the gap between patient experience and clinical perspective. What we cover in our episode about the indolent systemic mastocytosis: Understanding ISM: What makes indolent systemic mastocytosis a unique multisystem condition? Symptom burden explained: Frequency, severity, duration, distress, and functional interference. Patient vs practitioner views: Understanding the most impactful symptoms differs from patient to AP.  Practical tools: The Indolent Systemic Mastocytosis-Symptom Assessment Form (ISM-SAF) is a validated instrument that can be used to determine symptoms and severity. Barriers and solutions: Why tracking symptoms is hard and how clinics can improve coordination. AP-focused Toolkit: Resources to help nurse practitioners, PAs, and pharmacists provide patient-centered ISM care.

Overview: We explore the complexities of trust, cultural values, and intergenerational dynamics within the Filipino community, especially in accessing mental health and healthcare services. We discuss how deep-rooted traditions like family obligation, community support, and the stigma surrounding mental health influence care-seeking behaviors across generations. Through community-driven initiatives like Little Manila Rising, we highlight how culturally rooted, trauma-informed approaches—such as engaging churches, honoring ancestral spaces, and providing culturally competent care—foster healing, advocacy, and stronger relationships between healthcare providers and the community. Three Takeaways: Leveraging Churches and Food as Cultural ConnectorsBoth Hannah and Raj highlight practical strategies for bridging generational divides: churches are vital hubs for reaching elders (who may trust faith leaders more than therapists), while food acts as a unifier across age groups, providing a non-threatening entry point for community dialogue and engagement. Healing Hinges on Intergenerational Dialogue and Community-Led SpacesSpaces intentionally created for both young and old to share—such as wellness panels and focus groups—are potent for mutual understanding. There's a recurring theme that healing happens when the community is not just “served” but is leading and hosting the work, drawing on ancestral memory and lived experience Culturally Responsive Healthcare Goes Beyond ‘Cultural Competency'Tessa and Hannah stress that healthcare providers must go beyond textbook cultural competency. This includes offering trauma-informed care, involving families in treatment, actively engaging with community organizations (like Little Manila Rising), and educating themselves rather than outsourcing the labor of education to the community. Providers who do this, even if not sharing ethnic identity with patients, can vastly improve trust and outcomes.

People around the world got a first look at pictures and videos from the new Rubin Observatory in Chile on Monday. We take you to a watch party on Penn State’s University Park campus, to meet some of the professors who helped bring the project to life. UPMC is among the hospital systems in Pennsylvania no longer providing certain gender-affirming care for transgender patients next month. Providers are urging UPMC to reverse its decision. Suicide is the leading cause of gun-related deaths in Pennsylvania. The state is offering one million dollars in grants to help communities prevent these deaths. An intense and nearly historic weather pattern is cooking much of the U.S. under a dangerous heat dome this week with triple-digit temperatures in places that haven't been so hot in more than a decade. That includes the entire 19-county WITF listening area, which remains under an extreme heat advisory through 8 pm Wednesday. A Lancaster County police chief is fired, in the wake of a video of an off-duty traffic stop he conducted - in which he drew a gun and grappled with a motorcyclist. And in the town of New Berlin, Union County, a central Pennsylvania tradition is being put on hold this year.

SummaryIn this conversation, Sean Weiss and Terry Fletcher discuss the complexities of accountability in healthcare billing and coding. They explore the challenges providers face in ensuring compliance, the role of coders, and the importance of accurate documentation. The discussion highlights the need for clear communication and responsibility among all parties involved in the billing process, emphasizing that while providers have ultimate responsibility, everyone in the chain must be held accountable for their actions.TakeawaysProviders must ensure accuracy in claims submitted to insurance companies.The buck stops with the provider, regardless of third-party involvement.Coders should not make clinical decisions without proper credentials.There is a significant issue with billing compliance in healthcare.Providers need to educate their staff regularly on coding and billing guidelines.The importance of maintaining meticulous documentation cannot be overstated.Everyone involved in the billing process shares responsibility for compliance.Bad advice from consultants or attorneys can lead to serious consequences.The healthcare billing process is often a vicious cycle of blame.Providers should be proactive in understanding their billing practices.

Engaging with “bad actors” in medical billing can have serious consequences for both patients and healthcare providers. More and more providers are engaging without checking. Here's what could happen. Terry discusses it all with examples. Legal repercussions: Providers can face hefty fines, civil or criminal charges, and even loss of their medical license for engaging […] The post Watch out for “bad actors” on billing advice appeared first on Terry Fletcher Consulting, Inc..

According to a survey conducted by The Harris Poll in June 2024, 18% of the 2,092 American adults who were surveyed had received an unexpected medical bill of $1,000 or more in the past year, and 50% said they would not or weren't sure they could pay it. Moreover, 10% said they would delay or avoid essentials such as food or rent as a result. This financial uncertainty remains a leading reason patients delay or avoid care, underscoring the urgency of enhancing the patient financial journey to safeguard outcomes and revenue.What strategies can help health systems deliver a personalized patient experience while reducing operational complexity?On Highway to Health, host David Kemp speaks to Nicole Rogas, the President of RevSpring, about how the company is transforming the patient financial journey using data, automation, and empathy. Rogas shares how RevSpring is evolving far beyond its print roots, using analytics and adaptive technology to make financial engagement more personalized and accessible for patients, while easing the workload for providers.Key Highlights from the Episode:Personalized Communication at Scale: RevSpring's Engage IQ™ platform uses behavioral data, financial analytics, and communication preferences to tailor how and when patients are engaged via text, email, print, or voice.The Biggest Social Determinant: Rogas emphasizes that financial access is one of the most overlooked social determinants of health. When patients cannot understand or afford their care, it disrupts treatment adherence and outcomes.Empathy and Innovation in Leadership: Rogas reflects on her journey from Experian to Simpler and now RevSpring, underscoring how authentic leadership and mission-driven teams create the conditions for lasting transformation.Nicole Rogas is a veteran healthcare technology executive with over two decades of leadership experience spanning revenue cycle management, healthcare operations, and patient engagement. She spent 19 years at Experian Health, rising from sales roles to Chief Commercial Officer, where she led national growth strategies, client success, and post-acquisition integrations. Now President of RevSpring, she continues to drive innovation in patient financial engagement by leveraging data, technology, and a people-first leadership philosophy.

In this episode, I sit down with Erin Sullivan Wagner for a raw and powerful conversation about something that's too often ignored—sexual health in the context of cancer. Erin shares her personal experience with anal cancer, and what it was like to navigate the trauma of diagnosis and treatment while also feeling abandoned when it came to intimacy and her sexual well-being. We talk about the gaps in cancer care, especially when it comes to women. Why is it that sexual health is often dismissed or completely left out of the conversation? Erin and I unpack how deeply cultural biases and medical liability fears impact the way sexual health is (or isn't) addressed—especially for women. We also dive into the concept of prehabilitation—starting sexual health conversations before treatment begins—and why it's critical that providers get educated and empowered to offer resources, referrals, and support for their patients. Because survivorship isn't just about staying alive—it's about staying connected to your body, your relationships, and your pleasure. This is the conversation I wish every oncology team would hear. Cancer profoundly affects sexual health, yet it's often ignored. Erin's story is a powerful reminder of the trauma that comes with being left in the dark. There's a huge disconnect in how cancer care approaches female sexuality. Male sexual health gets prioritized—female sexual health, not so much. So many patients feel invisible when it comes to intimacy concerns. These conversations need to happen early, not after damage has been done. Cultural discomfort and medical fear of liability keep people from addressing sex. Women are rarely told what to expect sexually after cancer treatment. Quality of life includes sex, pleasure, and connection. We have to normalize sexual health in survivorship care. When we ignore it, the damage can be long-lasting and irreversible. Emotional intimacy matters as much as physical recovery. Prehabilitation should be standard practice. Providers need training—patients need validation and direction. Advocacy matters. This change starts with conversations like this.

At our Midweek Interactive Service, Pastor Yomi Badejo-Okusanya led a heartfelt conversation in honour of fathers and father figures. We reflected on Genesis 1:28, where God created and blessed man, and were reminded that fathers are called to reflect God's very nature. As carriers of His likeness, fathers are to embody Unconditional Love (Eph 5:25), remain Faithful (Heb 10:23), show Mercy (Matt 5:7), and serve as Providers who care deeply for their families (2 Cor 9:10, Gal 6:1). We declare blessing over all fathers: that they will lead with grace, love with intention, provide with wisdom, and restore with gentleness. May every father mirror the heart of our Heavenly Father and raise a godly generation with boldness and faith.

In this episode of The Pulling Curls Podcast, Hilary welcomes certified nurse midwife Juli Pyle to dive into the topic of informed consent in labor and delivery. Together, they break down what informed consent really means, the key components every patient should know, and how it plays out during childbirth. Juli and Hilary share personal stories from both sides—provider and patient—highlighting why these conversations matter and how they can empower you to make the best choices for your birth experience. Whether you're planning your first delivery or looking to better understand your options, this episode provides practical tips for having more effective, respectful discussions with your care team. Big thanks to our sponsor The Online Prenatal Class for Couples -- if you want to learn to communicate better, it is the class for you! Today's guest is Today's guest is Juli Pyle (she/her) a certified nurse midwife who practices at a community hospital in rural Pennsylvania. Juli was a stay at mom for many years to five children before deciding to return to school to pursue a degree in nursing. She graduated from Colorado Mesa University with a bachelors of science in nursing degree in 2016 and then began her nursing career as a labor and delivery nurse. She quickly discovered that this was her true passion (as she had suspected since having her own children) and quickly gained a reputation for professionalism, compassion and expertise among colleagues and patients. She then returned to Frontier Nursing University to complete a Master's degree in Nursing with an emphasis in midwifery. In 2020, she graduated and began as a certified nurse-midwife at a small community hospital in central Pennsylvania where she has been since that time. Her focus as a CNM is to provide evidence-based education to all birthing families, give true autonomy and informed consent throughout their time with her and to share love, understanding, empathy and true shared-decision making. When not immersed in the birthing world, she enjoys spending time refinishing furniture, gardening, raising and breeding different types of chickens, hiking and vacationing with her family.

There are five main components of informed consent: patient understanding, absence of coercion, full disclosure of risks/benefits/alternatives, the right to decline, and documentation of the discussion. Time pressure, provider biases, and regional/cultural differences often affect how effectively informed consent is communicated in hospitals. Patients are encouraged to ask, at any point, for the risks, benefits, and alternatives to a procedure—it's their right, even for routine interventions. Some medical staff may overwhelm patients with information, while others may inadvertently minimize discussion; finding the right balance to suit each patient is key. Regional culture, age, language, and personal preference play huge roles in how much information patients want or are comfortable with during labor and delivery. Informed consent isn't just for major decisions like C-sections or epidurals—it can and should apply to things like cervical exams and labor positions, even in less formal, conversational ways. Declining a recommended intervention (e.g., breaking water, episiotomy, induction) is absolutely an option for patients, and the birth experience should support their decision, barring emergency situations. The benefits of midwifery care are highlighted, including a more holistic and consistent approach to informed consent and labor support, but ultimately provider style matters more than title. Good communication and shared decision-making between providers and patients help prevent birth trauma and litigation, reinforcing the importance of patients feeling informed and respected during their birth experience.

In this episode, number 322, I sit down with sex therapist Dr. Juliana Hauser for a deeply personal and powerful conversation about her experience with surgical menopause. She opens up about the decision-making process around her hysterectomy—what led her there, what she wishes she'd known beforehand, and how it impacted her physically, emotionally, and sexually. We discuss the importance of thoroughly understanding your hysterectomy options—not all procedures are the same, and having the right information can make a significant difference. Dr. Hauser shares how guided imagery became a key part of her healing process, and we dive into the complicated (and often frustrating) world of hormone therapy. She also brings up the role of doulas—not just for birth, but for menopause—highlighting how emotional support can be just as essential as medical care. We explore why open communication in relationships matters so much, especially when it comes to sexual confidence and intimacy post-surgery. This conversation is raw, real, and full of wisdom for anyone navigating hormonal changes, recovery after hysterectomy, or simply learning to advocate for themselves in a system that doesn't always listen. https://dr-juliana.com/ https://flourishwholehealth.com/ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Order my book⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ "You Are Not Broken: Stop "Should-ing" All Over You Sex Life" and ⁠⁠⁠⁠"Menopause Moment: Science, Hormones and Mindset for Optimal Longevity"⁠⁠⁠⁠ Listen to my Tedx Talk: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Why we need adult sex ed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take my Adult Sex Ed Master Class:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Interested in my sexual health and hormone clinic? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Waitlist is open⁠⁠⁠⁠ To learn more about GennaMD by Solv Wellness, visit ⁠gennaMD.com ⁠for 20% off your first order.

While the fall of Roe V. Wade reawakened the abortion debate, training providers has been complicated for decades. Today, we go to one of the remaining training programs to learn how providers are safeguarding reproductive healthcare.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an increasingly common diagnosis. Yet most behavioral health providers are unaware that they can play a role in both the assessment and treatment of OSA in their patients. Today we're joined by an expert in the subfield of sleep psychology, Dr. Phil Gehrman. He shares basic information about what OSA is, how providers can effectively screen for it, and how they can facilitate treatment for this dangerous condition. Despite what you might have heard before, Dr. Gehrman posits that behavioral health providers can play “a huge potential role that really is untapped.” Dr. Phil Gehrman is Professor of Psychology in the Department of Psychiatry of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. He directs the Sleep, Neurobiology and Psychopathology lab at Penn. He has an active research program exploring the mechanisms and treatment of sleep and circadian dysregulation in the context of mental health disorders. Dr. Gehrman's clinical specialization is on the delivery of cognitive behavioral and chronotherapeutic interventions for insomnia, circadian rhythm disorders, and other sleep disorders.

Welcome back! In this episode 321, I sit down with the incredible Dr. Tiffany Moon—an anesthesiologist, mom, entrepreneur, and yes, former Real Housewife. We delve into what it truly means to find joy in midlife and how social media often distorts our perception of happiness. Tiffany gets real about the pressure so many professionals—especially women in medicine—feel to "do it all" and how that expectation can lead straight to burnout. We talk about the addiction to busyness, the cultural layers that shape how we view therapy, and the wild (and often hilarious) intersection of medicine and reality TV. We also touch on AI's growing presence in healthcare and what it means to redefine professionalism in today's world. This one's about self-trust, self-acceptance, and not waiting to enjoy your life. Dr. Tiffany brings humor, honesty, and a refreshing dose of perspective to a conversation that every working woman—especially in medicine—needs to hear.

In this episode of Health Talks, we chat with Gorana Micevic, a Physician Assistant at Access Community Health Network in Chciago. Gorana shares her journey from training at SIU School of Medicine to serving both rural and urban communities through family and addiction medicine. She discusses leading a nationally recognized COVID-19 testing program in rural Illinois, completing Rush University's addiction medicine fellowship, and building a patient panel for opioid use disorder (OUD) treatment at federally qualified health centers (FQHCs).  Gorana offers encouragement for providers who may feel uncertain about treating OUD, and reminds us that education, empathy, and collaboration are key to making an impact.Throughout the episode, Gorana emphasizes the importance of education both for patients and providers. She reflects on how increasing clinician confidence around initiating OUD treatment could reduce barriers to care, and stresses the need for more training programs to include addiction medicine and integrated behavioral health: “I'm a strong believer in the power of integrated behavioral health. Some of the most meaningful progress I've seen with patients has happened alongside behavioral health consultants—professionals trained in trauma, anxiety, depression, and recovery. It's the combination of medical and emotional care that truly transforms outcomes.”

In this podcast episode, we're joined by Stacy Agosto, a Behavioral Health and Substance Use Disorders Consultant at IPHCA. Stacy shares her insights on how involving loved ones in addiction treatment can improve outcomes, reduce stigma, and strengthen long-term recovery. She also offers practical tips and real-world resources that healthcare providers can share with patients and their families, along with inspiring stories of recovery where community made the difference.

Send us a textProviders, let's challenge the standard 6-week checkup and the conversation around "default birth control". What if it's not just "standard care" but a MAJOR factor in the rise of postpartum depression and anxiety we're seeing? Is hormonal birth control a silent driver of postpartum depression and anxiety? It's time to connect the dots. New research links hormonal birth control postpartum to increased maternal mental health risks. Understanding the biological reality of postpartum, including postpartum brain rewiring, shows why synthetic hormones disrupt a healing body. This is a call to action for anyone supporting new mothers. For postpartum providers and perinatal mental health professionals focused on holistic support and evidence-based care, this knowledge is essential for informed consent and optimizing postpartum recovery. Check out this episode on the blog: https://postpartumu.com/podcast/the-link-between-hormonal-birth-control-and-postpartum-depression-ep-218/Key Time Stamps: 2:37 hormonal birth control postpartum and mental health3:34 Key finding: 49% increased postpartum depression risk linked to hormonal contraception5:12 Highlighting birth control as default postpartum care.6:48 Diving into the biological reasons behind the link.7:52 The complex postpartum body state: hormones, nutrients, sleep, inflammation.11:48 Synthetic hormones interfere with delicate postpartum healing.13:11 Exploring postpartum brain rewiring and changes.15:26 How hormonal birth control can alter brain structure/function.17:14 The "neurological collision" of postpartum brain changes and birth control.20:34 Lack of provider training in postpartum brain science and hormone impacts.25:07 Systemic issue: medicating women through a sacred transformation.27:56 What holistic postpartum care and informed consent should look like instead.31:09 The need for ongoing postpartum support (recovery takes years!).NEXT STEPS:

  In this insightful episode, Kim Barrus, AVP of Quality and Accreditation at Select Health, shares three compelling case studies showcasing how her team is improving care access, streamlining provider engagement, and addressing health disparities across four states.

We have a special guest on today's episode whose voice will be familiar to regular listeners. Last year at this time, Dr. Raven Baxter occupied the Raise the Line host chair for a special ten-part series we produced in collaboration with the Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic Illness (CoRe) at Mount Sinai in New York City, where she serves as the Director of Science Communication. The series explored the latest understandings of post-acute infection syndromes -- such as Chronic Lyme and Long COVID -- with an array of experts from the Center and other researchers and providers. In this episode, we check-in with Dr. Baxter to get an update on the work of the Cohen Center, especially with regard to its mission to educate providers. “We're building programs so that clinicians can earn credit for learning about chronic illnesses that are infection associated, and we've also developed a 200-page provider manual. I really think that we will be able to shift the narrative that currently exists,” Dr. Baxter tells host Michael Carrese. That narrative includes lingering skepticism among providers of some infection-associated illnesses, which Dr. Baxter witnessed herself as a Long COVID patient, an experience that has added meaningful perspective to her work. Dr. Baxter is also working on her own time to advance knowledge and combat misinformation through a robust social media presence as “The Science Maven” and helps other scientists and clinicians to do the same. "If we're not there to fill in that void, other people will fill it for us and the narrative may not be consistent with the truth or facts." This is a great opportunity to learn about the art and science of communications that can reach clinicians and patients alike.Mentioned in this episode:Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic IllnessThe Science Maven If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Hey friends! In this episode, I'm joined by the amazing Dr. Heather Quaile, DNP, as we dive into all things ISSWSH — that's short for the International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health (try saying that five times fast). We talk about how this incredible organization has exploded in size and why that matters for women everywhere. We get into the power of staying curious in sexual medicine, why funding research is still such a grind, and how hormones — yes, especially testosterone — play a huge role in sexual function. Heather and I also share some of our favorite takeaways from recent ISSWSH conferences, like new ways of looking at orgasm and sexual dysfunction that actually make sense. We don't shy away from the hard stuff either — off-label meds, outdated guidelines, and the frustrating lack of clarity around hormone therapy. But more than anything, this convo is about how we, as healthcare professionals, need to collaborate and push for change that reflects real women's needs. If you're curious about the future of female sexual medicine or just want to hear two clinicians geek out over the latest research, this episode is for you.
