    Gretchen Frey, MD – hormone therapy, gender-affirming care, sexual pain disorders

    Gretchen Frey, MD – hormone therapy, gender-affirming care, sexual pain disorders

    Hormone therapy in menopause, gender-affirming care, and sexual pain disorders!
    This episode is with OBGYN Dr. Gretchen Frey.  She has a new project out now!  An Introduction to Sexuality Education: A Handbook for Primary Care Providers.  Get it now at https://v3.unhushed.org/
    She talks about how she worked as a general OBGYN for many years, then as she transitioned away from OB and focused on clinic GYN she saw a lot of patients in menopause and peri-menopause.  She became comfortable using hormone replacement therapy in that context and then expanded her practice to incorporate hormone therapy in gender-affirming care as well (which she says there is a great need for this type of care in primary care, particularly in Denver where I am at).  She discusses sexual pain disorders such as vulvodynia, dyspareunia, and vaginismus, and why they can be difficult to treat.  She notes that having a multi-specialty team is greatly important for success in this.

    Josh Emdur, DO – telehealth, remote primary care, and the future of medicine

    Telehealth, remote primary care, and the future of medicine!

    This episode with Josh Emdur, DO is a fun and interesting one about telehealth, remote primary care, and the future of medicine!  We get into all sorts of topics from his time as a hospitalist, to him changing up his practice completely and getting out of the hospital and into a role as a remote primary care doctor.

    He details his ideas on how to make big change in medicine by thinking outside the box, and how his remote primary care practice works.  And you know he's legit because he's a distance runner, and sub-elite marathoner
