Treating Pain with Empathy (featuring Dr. Stefan Friedrichsdorf)

Season 6 · Episode 18

Saturday, October 12, 2024 • Duration 33:54

Many of us have early memories of visits to the pediatrician, which are often underscored by fear of the dreaded needle. Being poked and prodded is never fun regardless of your age, but it's especially important to consider that a lot of this discomfort is unnecessary. And, traumatizing experiences in young patients can foster distrust for healthcare workers during their formative years. Today, we're chatting with Dr. Stefan Friedrichsdorf about palliative care, advocating for pain management in pediatrics, and how taking a bit of extra time for a simple, evidence-backed procedure to reduce anxiety during vaccinations can help kids develop positive associations with the healthcare system through adulthood.

Dr. Stefan Friedrichsdorf is a pediatric pain and palliative medicine specialist. Through his roles as a professor of pediatrics at UCSF and the medical director of the Stad Center for Pediatric Pain, Palliative and Integrative Medicine, he is helping to make pain management for kids a #1 priority through their care.

Is Mental Health a Luxury? (featuring Sean Mayberry)

Season 6 · Episode 16

Thursday, October 10, 2024 • Duration 25:17

From a privileged perspective, it can be easy to consider good mental health as an additional benefit on top of the precursor of physical health.

Today, we're chatting with Sean Mayberry about StrongMinds, a global nonprofit treating hundreds of thousands of people each year, mostly in Africa, with depression. Tune in to hear about the surprisingly controversial label of mental health, the sustainability of group therapy approaches for depression, and how mental health care targeted at caregivers improves many other factors in the household.
