A podcast dedicated to bringing you assessable information about topics in Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Discovered this at the 2019 NPA Conference and am grateful for this thoughtful and informative commentary on women’s health topics.

Love this podcast!

Really enjoying the podcast, especially the episodes that delve into the history behind these topics (ie PID, contraceptives) which is fascinating!!

Great!
