| 297: [UNICORN] Let's Talk About Sex! | 02 Jan 2025 | 00:47:30 | |
Today on the show we’re talking all things S-E-X. How comfortable do you feel discussing sex and sexual health with your patients? Have you even considered these conversations if you work in a speciality like cardiology or rheumatology? Where do you even start? My guest today is Aleece Fosnight, a PA with experience in urology, gynecology, pelvic health, gender affirming care, sexual medicine, and sexuality counseling. In 2020, she opened her own private practice, the Fosnight Center for Sexual Health, in Asheville, NC to provide a bio-psycho-social approach to sexual health. Sexuality and sexual health is integral to our overall health and well-being. We all deserve to have high-functioning sexual health. As medical providers, we have the opportunity to guide patients along this journey. If you don’t talk about sex with your patients, are you really providing holistic care? Show patients you care about them as a whole person by discussing their sexual health concerns in a positive and supportive manner. Aleece walks us through how to have these conversations and how we can negate the shame and stigma many feel around sex.

I’m unpacking my biggest career regrets. Things about my career as a physician assistant (now physician associate) that I’ve never shared before. It’s easy to look back and think, “If I had only known then what I know now, I could have made smarter choices.” But here’s the thing: regrets don’t have to define you. Instead, they can be powerful tools for growth and learning. By reflecting on what didn’t work or what could have been better, we can help others avoid the same mistakes—and in turn, set them up for success.

75% of American adults are overweight or obese. With that statistic, we will definitely treat overweight or obese patients, regardless of our specialties. But how do we discuss weight with our patients? Many PAs feels nervous about discussing a patient’s weight and don’t know how to approach what can be a very sensitive and emotionally-charged topic. That’s why I have Elena Sullivan on the podcast today to lead a masterclass in talking about obesity with compassion. Elena has been working as a PA in obesity and lifestyle medicine for 4 years. She shares how to focus on longitudinal whole person care with our patients. Elena defines weight bias and stigma, and how we can identify our own biases in order to best care for our patients. I learned so much from my conversation with Elena on the best ways to discuss obesity, weight loss and health with my patients, and also how to apply these tools to my own life. But my biggest takeaway from Elena’s masterclass on obesity? Elena believes that the biggest weight one can lose is that of others’ opinions and criticism of our own selves.

| 263: [UNICORN] Breaking Down Barriers to Treating Mental Health | 13 Jun 2024 | 00:52:11 | |
Depression and anxiety disorders affect so many of us. Healthcare providers in every field have patients with mental health disorders and often don’t know the best way to treat them or best place to refer. Each one of us has also struggled with our own mental health needs at least one point in our careers. As providers, we want to be able to provide the best possible care to our patients. But where do we turn? That’s my guest, Dr. Mikal Bailey, comes in! Dr. Bailey has been a PA for over 20 years, with almost all of his career focused on the neurosciences. Dr. Bailey was tired of sitting across from patients with mental health needs and not having good treatment options for them. So he opened his own outpatient mental health treatment facility! Instead of treating with a barrage of pills, his facility uses non-traditional treatments, such as IV ketamine, S-ketamine and transcranial magnetic stimulation. Listen in to learn how we can all become better, more compassionate healthcare providers when it comes to addressing our patients’ mental health needs. Dr. Bailey discusses actionable tips any provider can implement, regardless of what field you’re working in. Dr. Bailey and I also discuss the road from clinical PA to entrepreneur. If you’re thinking of one day taking the leap to building your own business, tune in to hear steps that will help you succeed.
