    Show Notes:In this episode of 'Own Your Pleasure', Whitni Miller and her guest, Dr. Michelle Gordon, discuss the complexities of menopause, hormonal changes, and the healthcare system's treatment of women's health issues. Dr. Gordon emphasizes the importance of finding a doctor who listens, the impact of the Women's Health Initiative on hormone therapy, and the cultural dismissal of women's health concerns. Dr. Gordon advocates for a holistic approach to treatment, recognizing obesity as a disease and the need for hormone optimization to improve quality of life. The discussion also touches on the importance of self-advocacy and the challenges women face in the medical system. Dr. Michelle Gordon is Board Certified in Obesity Medicine, Lifestyle Medicine, and General Surgery and is a Telehealth Innovator. After building and running a multi-million dollar surgical practice, she shifted her focus from surgery to weight management, hormone health, and longevity through high-impact telehealth for lesbian midlife women. She brings advanced, personalized care straight to you —without gatekeeping, delay, or the one-size-fits-all approach of traditional systems. Her background in surgery gives her a sharp clinical lens in obesity and lifestyle medicine. She’s seen how strategic, non-surgical interventions can reverse complex metabolic disease. Her experience drives the results she delivers today, through evidence-based care that respects your time, autonomy, and goals. She uses telehealth to deliver high-quality, personalized care. This isn't a quick prescription model. She takes the time to understand each patient’s goals, history, and challenges to create treatment plans that are safe, effective, and built for long-term success. Her mission is simple. She gives you clear, evidence-based guidance and real support throughout your health journey. You deserve more than a rushed visit or generic advice.
