Disorders of gut-brain interaction. A new name for the most common type of problems seen in a pediatric GI clinic. What are they, and how do you get better or help someone with them live better? You will learn more about them in this series with one of the world's experts, Dr. Beate Veinvogl, specializing in helping children, adolescents, and their families better understand what they are going through and then live their best life possible.

When I started this podcast—and the book that came before it—I had my patients in mind. Office visits are short, but understanding complex, often misunderstood conditions like fibromyalgia takes time. That’s why I created this space: to offer education, validation, and hope. If you’ve been told fibromyalgia “isn’t real” or that it’s “all in your head,” know this—I see you. I believe you. You’re not alone. This podcast aims to affirm your experience and explain the science behind it. Whether you live with fibromyalgia, care for someone who does, or are a healthcare professional looking to better support patients, you’ll find trusted, evidence-based insights here, drawn from my 28+ years as an MD.

Please remember to talk with your doctor about your symptoms and care. This content doesn’t replace personal medical advice.*
