She emphasizes why it's important for care providers to truly understand who their patients are. Souto passionately advocates for patient education, offering valuable insights into what individuals should look for in their healthcare providers.

This episode focuses on the profound impact of the connection and understanding between patients and care providers.

She explores the art of building rapport and relationships with practitioners in subsequent meetings. Drawing from her experience, Souto shares specific examples of supporting patients through discomfort and offers advice for practitioners and fertility professionals.
