What is the patient experience?

What is the patient experience?

In episode 05 "What is the patient experience?" our Flow team takes a look at patient stories from three different menstruators:

How does a doctor miss a woman's second vagina?

What is a near-death first period experience like?

What does it look like to face racism when seeking treatment?

Christie and Jessica speak with Brittany Jacobs, Michelle Ryzak, and Teonna Woolford about their varied experiences of extreme menstruation.

Program Notes:

In episode 05, Christie and Jessica focus on the patient experience. They speak with Britany Jacobs about uterus didelphys; share some of their conversation about extreme first menstruation with von Willebrand's disease patient MIchelle Ryzak; and talk to Teonna Woolford - patient advocate on a mission to shine light on sickle cell's impact on reproductive health.
