🎙️ You’re a Doctor, Right? - A Health Podcast with Dr. Sonya Bhole Hosted by Dr. Sonya Bhole — breast radiologist, mom of three, and your new favorite doctor-friend who tells it like it is. Have you ever pulled someone aside at a dinner party and whispered: ”You’re a doctor, right? So... what do you think about [insert awkward, terrifying, or slightly weird health question here]?” Welcome to the podcast version of that moment. In each episode of You’re a Doctor, Right?- A Health Podcast with Dr. Sonya Bhole, Dr. Sonya Bhole sits down with real doctors — including anesthesiologists, dermatologists, pediatricians, dentists, and more — to talk through the medical questions people are too embarrassed to ask… or have tried (and failed) to Google. This is not a lecture. It’s not stiff or overly clinical. It’s real talk from doctors who are also parents, partners, patients, and people. We go beyond the basics and share what really matters — so you walk away informed, reassured, and maybe even entertained. 🛑 Important Disclaimer: The content of this podcast is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute formal medical advice.
